BadBoy Levels: Filter Whispers By Level

BadBoy_Levels is a plugin to BadBoy, the anti spam addon. It works by using lists:

Good: Friends/Guild & everyone above the level you choose
Bad: Anyone below and equal the level you choose (default 1)

Simply, if a "bad" person whispers you, the whisper is blocked (hidden), then you send them a whisper (also hidden) of what level they must be for you to see their whispers.

What sets this aside from other whisper blockers?
BadBoy_Levels is made to be extremely light, simple, has no ingame options, and works automatically without asking the user.

I decided to separate this addon as it's not a feature everyone wants.

Can I change the filter level to be higher than 1?

Yes, use:

Code:

/script BADBOY_LEVEL = N

N = the number you want to filter, all levels <= N
Please note the level you enter will also be filtered, so if you enter 3, everything under 3 and at 3 will be filtered.

What's changed in v2?

The core lookup system has changed. Instead of using Who on players that whisper you, they are momentarily added to your friends list, so that their level can be retreived, then removed. This was done because:
1. Using Who was untrustworthy, if a player with a short name like "Ka" whispered you, you might not see it.
2. Using Who has a cooldown, if you had lots of whispers at the same time, they would be significantly delayed.
3. Using who took away the ability for the player to use Who at that point in time.

Please help with localization here!

Change Log - BadBoy Levels: Filter Whispers By Level

v2.1.2 - Better way to filter auto-response when drunk.

v2.1.1 - attempt to fix auto-responses not being hidden when drunk, deDE update.

v2.1.0 - Now Filters level 55/56 Death Knights by default, no options to change this currently. A whisper will be sent just like other classes, but asking to be level 57.

v2.0.5 - frFR update, add an extra arg to AddFriend() and RemoveFriend() as requested by tekkub for compatibility with addons such as "FriendsWithBenefits".

v2.0.4 - Remove the 50 max friends check as the maximum appears to have been increased beyond 50, use a different method for checking for max friends. v2.0.4

v2.0.3 - Don't try to add a player to friends several times for 1 whisper (registered to more than 1 chat frame)

v2.0.2 - Attempt to fix letting follow up whispers through and erroring about too many friends incorrectly

v2.0.1 - Possible fix for some "already on friends" weirdness

v2.0.0 - addon completely redesigned to use the friends list instead of performing who lookups, should fix several problems including the fact that Who has a cooldown, and not getting whispers from characters with small names like "Ha".

v1.5.4 - BUGFIX ERROR: ChatFrame.lua:2457 Usage: GetPlayerInfoByGUID("playerGUID")

v1.5.3 - toc update

v1.5.2 - ruRU update

v1.5.1 - Minor locale update, if you wish to contribute see http://www.wowace.com/projects/badboy_levels/localization/

v1.5:
-Another bugfix with wholib
-Another fix to remove old/printed whispers from memory
-Fix a potential loop if no player returns from who
-frFR update

v1.4.1 - fix a bug introduced by v1.4 that would add any level 1 that whispered you to the safe list.

v1.4.0 - adds anyone you whisper to the safe list, so you can whisper unguilded bank alts etc and they can reply.

v1.3.0 - works around the Who window popping up sometimes if an addon using WhoLib was installed (WIM, etc...) and add translations in deDE, esES & esMX for the whisper reply.

v1.2.1 - properly remove old whispers from memory

v1.2.0 - fix a rare error on login

v1.1.0 - Now instead of completely blocking off the whisper, the whisper will be hidden, and you will send the player a whisper (also hidden) telling that player what level they must be to whisper you

v1.0.0 - release

It's probably latency between him being added to the safe list and getting your whisper. I'll try test it out though, thanks.

Severstone A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 1 Uploads: 0	Not blocking incoming whispers from Great AddOn so far, but I am having a problem hiding the incoming whispers from targets below the specified level using the /script BADBOY_LEVEL = N. I had a friend test it out for me and sure enough the get the auto message that I cannot receive whispers from targets at or below level 10, however I still see their incoming text! Any suggestions? Thanks. Edit: After reading through the forums a bit more I think the addon is working as intended because I am first whispering the target and they are then whispering me, so they must get added to the "safe" list. However once on the list apparently they are still receiving the "You must be atleast blank level.... etc. " upon sending me a tell. What am I missing here? Thanks.

(had another addon that was the blocking culprit) I then must declare this addon (and its parent addon) to be one of the most essential ones to have. I can't do anything but applaud your work.

That feature was already added in v1.4 anyone you whisper is considered safe.
