SPAM #9

Closed Spaceface16518 closed 6 years ago

There is too much spamming!

This is not technically a problem right now, but it could become one when mongoDB is integrated.

Users can submit blank lines

This is a major problem because they can then simply hold down enter to spam.

Disable pasting

This might help the anti-spam initiative :)

Add admin disconnect option

Add an event emitter and listener to make all clients disconnect. This could be useful, but would not be very effective in anything permanent. Perhaps add a username based option, make it like kicking the user. This would obvious require a lot of authentication and stuff.

Possible other solutions

Here is a stack overflow on how to disable paste.

Disclaimer: This solution does not help much, because users can paste other ways, but it will disable fast pasting.
