Hi all, RE: Is there any timed nick changer? by Tochjo on 10-20-2005 at 11:09 AM Perhaps NickChange Plugin is what you're looking for RE: Is there any timed nick changer? by J-Thread on 10-20-2005 at 03:11 PM
NickChange Plugin doesn't exactly what you are looking for, but it may be a nice feature. I'll think about it RE: Is there any timed nick changer? by CartoonKid on 10-21-2005 at 01:40 AM Suddenly i have an idea here. If this timed nick changer can be done. Then perhaps we could change our nickname every second according to the OS time. It would turn out that the nickname is animating. But would the server update our nickname so fast for others to catch it in time? RE: Is there any timed nick changer? by Tochjo on 10-21-2005 at 09:10 AM
That idea has been suggested before, CartoonKid, and apart from the fact that many people agreed that it would be very annoying, it seems to be impossible because the server indeed has flood protection. RE: Is there any timed nick changer? by J-Thread on 10-21-2005 at 07:03 PM
As far as I know, the maximum is 10 changes a minute, so that's 6 seconds between each change... That's why NickChange's minimum is 10 seconds, that's a "safe" amount of time to avoid problems... RE: Is there any timed nick changer? by MeEtc on 10-21-2005 at 07:57 PM
Not to mention, but you're event log would get very long, very fast if somebody kept changing their nick that often. As for those with nick chage notifications, this would just be hell, with a illion popup windows crowding the screen. |
