Absurd mutes for repeated text

[vaindil]

The bot is giving absurdly long mutes for very little repeated text.

Maybe the maths is just off somewhere?

[dharmaturtle]

Maths is off, it is using Average of all the similarities instead of the Max. Already fixed, will run the new version... at least when the stream goes live.

@dharmaturtle Are the mute lengths accurate though? 42 minutes seems pretty extreme.

[dharmaturtle]

Mute lengths are accurate.

He was pasting:

Dranzogger: : >Destiny if you're reading this then I have to say that this was very distasteful. You're saying a wonderful thing though,الله أكبر, which can be interpreted as Allah (God) is the greatest. But since you aren't a Muslim, I assume and therefore aren't saying it sincerely, you can see how you come across surely? Please be respectful of other peoples' religions. It's something that decent human beings should be doing anyways. [I hope i dont get muted for posting muslim speak]

Mute lengths now scale with the length of the spam, where previously they were just 10m. This is due to chat's willingness to accept the mute and paste absurdly long sentences regardless of the mute.

In the future, I may make mutes stack depending on if there were previous occurrences of other other pastes, but that's a feature I'll not have time to implement for at least a week.

If you have a preferred mute length in mind, let me know.

[vaindil]

Gotcha, that makes sense, I suppose I could've looked at the source to find that myself.

My only suggestion would be to drop the length if the matched text is a link. I know Cake's mute was because Destiny asked for a link to something, he posted the link at the exact same time someone else did. 7 minutes seems a bit much for that.

[dharmaturtle]

Meh, why read code when you can avoid it? :]

Links pose an interesting problem. I don't want to drop them entirely, otherwise we'd be vulnerable to stupidly long URLs. However, they do deserve more leniency. A user can post a reddit link, and pasting a permalink to a comment yields a ban. Perhaps only start muting only after it has been posted X times.

Implementation of this feature will occur after mute stacking.
