Hiya maroon

ironically... $8- displays correctly.. and the full message on all hits on any filter that gets tripped so that is unaffected

the space in the filter is deliberate and was specified as such in person by Syzop as an unrealircd filter on the spamfilter.conf section but i set it on mirc using

Code
/spamfilter add -regex c soft-block - caps_or_netspammer (?-i)[A-Z ]{30}


i tested it on regex101 to confirm the regex works and it does.. i tested it on the server with a regged and unregged nick and it worked fine.

re the full snotice.. sorry .. here it is
Quote
[Spamfilter] AndroUser2!~androirc@ip.address.here.threembb.co.uk matches filter '(?-i)[A-Z ]{30}': [PRIVMSG #testchannel: 'THIS IS A TEST TRIP OF THE SPAMMERSFILTER I SET ON THE NETWORK FROM SLEEPINGDRAGOONY'] [caps or netspammer] at 22:05:51 on 30/05/2021 on network.here


the spamfilter announcement from snotice as i showed clearly shows the tripped filter in full.. its purely the script that looks at the snotice.. $5 is the spamfilter read which as you correctly pointed out .. has a space in it instead of a solid block. is it just a case of using $5- ?
