- Usage: ON [#|+|-|^|&|@]FLOOD [-|^]<parameters> [action]
- The FLOOD type is activated whenever someone sends a lot of
- information very rapidly to you, your channel, or the system at
- large (ie: a wallop). Usually, this is caused when someone dumps
- a file to your channel or to you. The parameters for this are:
- $0 The nick of the flooder
- $1 The type of flooding being done
- $2- The content of the flooding message
-
- General use for ON FLOOD is as follows:
- ON ^FLOOD *
- This will automatically prevent flooding messages from being
- displayed and automatically disable itself when the flooding
- has stopped.
-
- If you use services like IRCIIHelp or NickServ, these can appear to
- IRCII as floods, but if you add to following ON lines:
- ON FLOOD ^IRCIIHelp
- ON FLOOD ^NickServ
- These will not be treated as floods and will let their messages through.
-
- Warning: There are occasions where ON FLOOD can be inadvertantly
- activated (such as after a net-burp, or after you have ^Z'd for a
- while). Therefore, I strongly advise against using KILL or even
- KICK as the action taken by an ON FLOOD.
