Allow flood for certain users?

Post by gary »

Hello,

I'm kinda new to UnrealIRCd, i already googled and asked more experianced users if there's a way to disable the Excess Flood when a certain user spams more messages than allowed. Actually they
said one cannot that easily (like setting it in config) disable the flood for certain users.
Nice would be some plugin, so that IRCOPS could set a flag for some non-IRCOP user/nickserv name, that allows the affected person to spam like x lines in x seconds, 0:0 to allow unlimites spam
in unlimited time.

Any chance there's already something similiar that i could use to give a certain user (some eggdrop) permission for unlimited flooding?

Excess flood quits are caused when a user sends more data to a server then their class block allows them to send (recvq value).

So to exempt someone from an "excess flood" kill, you would need to use a separate allow block and class for the user where the class specifies higher sendq and recvq values allowing more data to be sent and received by the user.

Thanks a lot!

Works like a charm. I didn't test it yet but what is the max possible recv/send that i can set? Does 0 work for unlimited?

unlimited is a very bad idea. Even servers and services have sendQ/recvQ limits.
