If no mods are on and someone advertises take screenshots and report it <object class="emojione" data="https://resources.enjin.com/1489581540/themes/core/images/emojione/svg/1f642.svg?0" type="image/svg+xml" standby=":)">:)</object>

You could setup a filter to filter out specific url's and ip addresses from being displayed in chat. Don't make it a "kickbot", just simply don't allow said url's and ip's to display at all.

There would be a whitelist of url's " class="bbcode_url" title="http://www.youtube.com/]" data-safe-url="https://redirect.enjin.com/n/18e947f1e6">www.youtube.com/], which would allow for those addresses to be displayed when entered into the chat box.

Maybe straight ip addresses should be banned all together? Who actually uses them when advertising the server, anyway? Just exempt the ip of the guest server, as well as the main, from this rule, and we're good to go!

True this, I realise that advertising and spamming is an issue.

Problem is, it would be VERY hard to do, as www.minetown.net/promo is advertised a lot. There would have to be numerous exceptions added. However, a GOOD idea would be the plug-in to apply for guests only. This would prevent random people coming and doing this. Another thing to do would be to insert guests (new ones) straight into /warp gwspawn, as most come online then ask how they build, usually combining with OP to make "hi i am new can i have OP so i can bild".

i definitely agree that guests should be autospawned in GW to save us all a headache every 5 minutes XD

Could we use the cursing schematic to get rid of ads? anytime an IP# is used, it just says Lollipop or something?
Yeah, I feel your pain, but it would bring about some possibly unexpected bans.
Is anyone actually fully supportive of this? Because I could make it, but I doubt it would be of much use. How often does this happen anyways? I don't go on much, because I program, but if its that much of a bother, I could code up a plugin.

I agree with @Danni .
Not often I see an advertisement, one or two every few days.

Ive seen people advertise by posting like this:

43

47

5

53

2

They post each number on a seperate line and announce thats their IP.

So if you want to block numbers altogether, thats cool. We can just make new words for them. I'll sell you humptylumpty amount of stone for chewbacca amount of gold.
Sorry to be off topic, but thats funny
