Removing Glines

darkfyre · Post by **darkfyre** » Sat Aug 14, 2004 10:45 am

Recently someone loaded several thousand bots to a channel on our network. I then noticed that a few opers had got together and placed per Glines on them all (talking about 2000 glines here). Ive since managed to speak with the owner of the bots and he has changed the DNS so they are no longer attacking us.

Is there an easy way to remove all these non expiring bans .. or do we have to remove one at a time "/gline -*@something.com"

Thanks

Or maybe someone could help with an addon for mIRC which would do this?

Check out AngryWolf's rmtkl module:
http://64.84.10.70:81/index.php?page=mo ... dule&id=24

Command /rmtkl: removes all TKLs (bans) matching the given conditions and having any types you specify (available ones are K:Line, G:Line, Z:Line, Global Z:Line and Shun). The removal is done locally or globally, depending on the ban is global or not. With this command you can easily get rid of a group of no longer necessary bans.

(Oh, and: please edit your posts rather than replying to yourself)

for future problems like this you and your opers might want to set temporal glines...
here's a mirc-script i use (http://www.coding-board.de/board/showthread.php?t=2966) and i think it's quite good - the page is in german, but the script should be selfexplaining - otherwise pm me and I might help you...

For an easy non-modulized way, I use a mIRC script.

It's simple and does the trick.

Add this to remotes, remove the ';' in front, change the words to look for and then do a /stats g

;raw 223:*: if (($2 == g) && (BANMESSAGEHERE found isin $4-) gline $+(-,$3))

As an alternative solution, you can use set::default-bantime to avoid permanent bans. Certainly, you can still add permanent bans by specifying 0 as an expiration time, but if no expiry is given, this will make sure newly added bans will have finite expiry times. I hope that helps.
