Inactive [CHAT/ADMN] StopTalkingAutoBan [Reloaded!] Alpha1 - Intelligent Anti-Spam System [1.4.5-R0.2]

This plugin likes to randomly stop listening to a player saying they have left even tho they havnt left D:

Are you using any plugins that say things when they log in? Or any type of log in/log out/disconnect plugins?
Ive yet to update for the latest recommended.(getting ready to do so) So theres a possibility that something in the new build has changed and is causing my plugin to see that the player has disconnected. Ill keep you posted.

Please also check the first post for a bug report submission format.

I'd also like to say THANK YOU for making STAB hit 1,500 downloads! It means a lot to me!

Thanks
Blackburn

It seems to be when they do execute a command or die.
But not everytime only rarely very strange.

Looks really great, going to use it on my server. Thanks

any chance to make this work with mcbans? when it bans someone, its impossible for a mod to unban that user. I have to remove from offencelist and banned-players.txt

More than likely no. Thats one of the last things on my list unfortunately. 1.2.4 will be out in the next couple days, ive been re-working the ban system to implement the one introduced by the bukkit dev with the latest RB.

why not allow it to use a command such as /ban when there's a spammer, so it's easier for say, LogBlock to catch on to it (i have it set up to rollback griefers after a ban)

I didnt know you could do this! off to check it out

Did not know that. Will DEFINITELY look into this for the next update!

Sorry about the lack of updates guys. Its mid-term time once again, Ill be able to continue working on 1.2.4, next Wednesday

dose this work with mcbans for the ban?

It currently used the banned-players list implemented in Bukkit. 1.2.4 changes this to bukkit's new banning system. If I get around to it, ill implement the use of commands for mcbans. But for now, no.

Please add a player 'whitelist' so my moderators dont get banned when a lag spike happens.

works for a while as in many hours then

during this the server does not go down, just no one can get on, as it starts kicking everyone.
bukkit recommended : 1185

Hey, i have a problem, idk if this is just me, but my friend and I tried this, and it works perfectly, so he spammed twice and got banned... When he tried to join, he cant join, but in the server it says "nnanan has joined the game" but it could be cause i have another plugin with this... such as VanishnoPickup.

Thanks for this epic plugin.
I'm being attacked atm. your plugin banned over 100 accounts right now. and still counting.
however there seems to be another kind of spam. logoutspam.
I know i can just disable the logout message, but it sucks ram. A lot.
They don't show up as online people either.

A permission node has been added for this in 1.2.4

This is an error with ChatLogging, and has been fixed in 1.2.4. For now you may disable this feature in the config and you should not run into issues.

Glad to see this is working out for you! I will look in to the log out spam and see what I can do to implement it into STAB.

Great plugin. This is just what I need.

I hope you add an option to mute players and yes please add permission support just to prevent OP/MOD getting kicked/banned with your plugin. Thanks

can u please add a whitelist so OPs/Owners dont get ban from this? cuz im an owner of a big server and i just got banned... and for some reason when im trying to unban my self it says. "iSpooked is not banned. good game....

Can you add support for ban plugins? I use MCBans, and /unban doesn't work because it bukkit bans.

deadlink,buddy

Since installing i get an error when trying to use the /ban /tempban or /unban commands. /kick works fine tho. Im not using any ban plugins other than essenstials. Any ideas?

plugin is not working with new recommended CB build 1240

1240 screwed with my plugin quite a bit. I have managed to get it fixed, and has been done in a way that uses even less resources!

1.2.4 out tonight!

Update 1.2.4 OUT! Please update!

Theres a possiblity of some compatibility issues, I'm not 100% sure though.

If so please let me know....

with cb 1240 and stab 1.2.4, it works perfectly for hours and then starts throwing the same cant pass chat event to stab
for practically all chat once it starts occuring.
Ill post the log once it happens again, i normally just restart the server and its fixed, but still annoying. Also not sure if it will even protect against spam during the freak out periods

Its a data output stream error, its having issues flushing the stream to a file when it contains special characters(@#%^,etc). I'm still trying to figure out what I can do to stop this. But for now, all I can say is to disable chat logging. This issue will then go away.

Does this plugin conflict with Factions? It seemed to work fine at first (and actually do its job) but recently people still manage to spam endlessly on my Factions server. I disabled chat logging since that seemed to cause exceptions, but even before that they still managed to spam.
