    SpamSentry  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

    Version: 20091214
    by: Anea [More]

    SpamSentry by Anea

    This addon stops goldspam messages from showing in your chatframes. To detect spam, SpamSentry uses sophistacted heuristics that have been developed over the course of over two years. Caught spammers can easily be reported using an intuitive one-click report system. SpamSentry features an LDB plugin that provides some simple status info, and gives you quick access to the options and the reporting window.

    ---
    20091214: Updated toc for 3.3, updated filters, fixed issue with Whisp
    ---

    Installation:
    * Unzip the file into your 'Interface/Addons' folder.

    Features:
    * Detects multi-message spam
    * Customisable notification
    * LibDataBroker (LDB) support (FuBar users can download Broker2FuBar to show the SpamSentry icon)
    * Compatible with Whisp, Chatter and Wim
    * Seperate reportlists are maintained for each realm you play on
    * And many more

    Use:
    * Left click the LDB icon to show a list of blocked messages
    * Type /sentry or right-click the icon for options

    How to help:
    * If a spam-message isn't recognised:
    1. Report the spammer by right-clicking the name in the chat window and selecting "Report Spam"
    2. Control-click the SpamSentry icon
    3. Send me a PM with the code sequence
    * If you encounter a false positive:
    1. Click the message in SpamSentry main-window
    2. Send me a PM containing that message

    Performance notes:
    * All code has been designed to minimize parsing-time, and maximize performance for raiding.
    * The addon currently uses about 150kB memory (Patch 3.0 GetAddOnMemoryUsage(), no libraries).
    * Toggle the statistics option in the configuration screen to show session statistics in the tooltip.

    Known issues:
    * Blizzard made an a-typical implementation for who-queries. You may notice slow response on the /who command while using this mod when the chat is crowded.
    * Textballoons from says and yells are still shown. Blizzard currently provides no way to block textballoons.

    Hello everyone!

    Today is the day I have just uploaded a brand new and shiny version of SpamSentry. It should have the same look and feel yet be significantly more sleek. Have a look at the patchnotes for details on what changed.

    Should you run into a problem, please don't hesitate to post here.

    Greets,

    Anea

    Hi everyone,

    I've spent some time on SpamSentry this week and decided it was in need of a big overhaul. I'm currently finalising the code and will be betatesting the addon the upcoming week.

    Incoming changes:
    - Ace3 instead of Ace2
    - FuBar plugin removed
    - LibDataBroker plugin added (backwards compatible with FuBar if you install Broker2FuBar)
    - Removed the goldfarmer / bot / naming violation reporting

    Notes on these changes:
    Overall I want to slim down the addon as I feel that it has gathered a little too much weight over time. Changing to Ace3 and dropping FuBar support are a logical course of action to make this happen. Removing the custom report system is a tricky decision as I am fully aware that a bunch of people are very happy with it. In the end I feel that after the ticketing changes in patch 2.1 the SpamSentry tools offers too little benefit over the normal ticketing system, so I have decided to cut down overhead.

    SpamSentry is returning to core business: catching spam.

    I'm planning to show you a new version within a week. Hope you'll welcome the changes. Keep posted!

    Anea

    @Ookami.kun: Work is keeping me busy, so I haven't had time to look into the compatibility code for various other addons. You can circumvent the error by commenting out lines 12 and 14 in compatibility.lua.

    Have loved this mod since I first found it, and with all the spam as of late I miss it a lot. When I log on, I get the following error message and SpamSentry does not work at all. Any chance of a fix?

    I have just updated SpamSentry to solve the most common issues that have been reported over the last week.

    As for compatibility with other addons (like WIM): All addons are currently at best in a stable beta phase; lots of code is changing by the day. As soon as things settle down at some point next week I will look into the compatibility module.

    @Litvan: I didn't notice your comment untill after releasing this version, but you can circumvent the error by commenting out lines 12 and 14 in compatibility.lua.
