GD5 - Long Nicks....

I was testing the GD5 long nick kicker / Join Flood Prot... and i faced the following errors :

1) I joined 100 nicks...GD5 showed "1 nick" in the nicklist..although i could see all 100 nicks join.

2) When the nicks joined..they all joined in as the same nick...so GD5 reacted to a "1 nick join" instead of a "mass join"

I was just wondering..is this an error in the GD5 connection or is it something to do with mIRC ?

and is there a way to fix it ?

it's partly both. GD5 just grabs the first 50 characters and that. So yea, it can be a bad sense in that way, but if you have long nick kicker, it should do the job fine. Hmm, i guess i will take a look at a better nickname method so that it will always show the differences between nicks. So yea, i guess give me a bit of time (either in the up coming update, or the update after that or maybe after that, but should be solved over the next few weeks).

Don't use the custom nicklist if your gonna run that risk. Stick with mIRC's default.

Thanks mate....I'll be waiting for it

naw fusion, he means that all the nicknames are as 1 in mIRC, regardless of nicklist view.

Oh, I've only heard of that in custom nicklists.

mIRC is limited to 50 character nicknames, so i gotta make it so that the 50 characters are not going to restrict mIRC. I just need to work it out.

X-Fusion .. lol... its not me, its the long nick floods that usually hit the room

you should ban long nicks then

Since Molson wants to be a smart guy, this is in addons.

GD5 already has just right click on the screen Dogcollar Connection [Room] when you click on that you'll see long nick ban.Two options add or remove.
