The following XChat script is free to use as you see fit, as long as you don't claim it as your own.*

• Mass /names Spam Ignore
  • Version: 002
  • Ignore users who join a channel and spam the contents of /names to the channel.
  • The method detected is fairly limited for efficiency, so may not catch all cases, but is adequate for a current set of attacks.
  • If a user does a typical /names spam in channel, the user will be ignored, and the current message will be replaced with the following (to show that this is the case):
  • <spammername> <this /names spammer has been ignored: *!*@their.host.or.ip>
  • Note: This is a subset of Mass Highlight Ignore
