Chat updates
Posted: Sat Nov 08, 2014 3:18 pm
This is a third update of our custom chatting system.
In this update the code has been rewritten and now is more efficient.
By using advanced string functions, this system recognizes non-ASCII characters and forbids the usage of them.
This way we do not need to use filters which didn't even cover all non English alphabets.
Added a ban hammer for advertising.
Any posted IP address of an another server will result in a 1 hour ban and will later be reviewed for further investigation. (You might get a permanent ban but that is decided by an admin.)
Chat colors were rewritten, global chat text color was changed to default. VIP and staff will have colored names but not text.
Hex codes are no longer available for local chat.
Added a very short anti-spam for local chat. This will probably won't be noticed unless you try to spam.
/me command is back.
