Domain Ban Plugin
This plugin will ban or timeout anyone who posts a link to a banned domain on your
chat. For this you can maintain a list of blacklisted domains (
naked-whatever.com
, naked-someone.com
, …).
foo.com
and someone posts "I hate this foo.com spam!",
that will be regarded as posting the evil link and result in a ban/timeout.
Because of this, it's recommended to not let Kabukibot outright ban people, but just time them out for one year or so. This way, when a legitimate user gets accidentally timed out, moderators can quickly revert that.
You can configure whether to ban or to timeout for each domain independently.
Synopsis
- Identifier:
domain_ban
configure_domain_bans
- Commands:
- !ban_domain, !unban_domain, !banned_domains
Setup
Simply enable the plugin using the global command !k_enable:
#tester_mantester_man: !k_enable domain_ban kabukibot: tester_man, the plugin "domain_ban" has been enabled.
Usage
To add a domain to your blacklist, use the !ban_domain command and just give the domain name and what action to take. If you want to ban the person, just write:
#tester_mantester_man: !ban_domain naked-julia.com kabukibot: tester_man, links to naked-julia.com will be *banned*.
If you want to give a timeout, add "timeout" and the time the person should be kicked
for (for example, 30s
, 15m
or 30d
):
#tester_mantester_man: !ban_domain naked-julia.com timeout 5m kabukibot: tester_man, links to naked-julia.com will be timed out for 5 minutes.
You can change existing ban rules by using !ban_domain – if the domain already is blacklisted, the ban type will simply be updated.
To unban a domain, use !unban_domain. There are no further arguments than the domain itself:
#tester_mantester_man: !unban_domain naked-julia.com kabukibot: tester_man, links to naked-julia.com will no longer be timed out for 5 minutes.
To get a list of your current blacklist, use !banned_domains:
#tester_mantester_man: !banned_domains kabukibot: tester_man, banned domain are: naked-julia.com (5m t/o)
Whenever a bad link is posted, the configured action is taken and Kabukibot tells the user what happened:
#tester_mantrollx: http://www.naked-julia.com/?refid=isuckasskabukibot: trollx, you have been timed out for 5 minutes for posting a link to a banned domain.
Permissions
Use the global commands !k_allow and !k_deny to control the permissions for this plugin.
