[06:51:44] Funny, 9/11 "Highest" tickets don't respect the rule of having an assignee. http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2014-June/076939.html [07:50:03] hi all, i was wondering if any other bot writers have seen Excess Flood errors in their bots recently https://github.com/edsu/wikichanges/issues/1 [07:50:44] i have a bot that used to be able to listen to ~30 wikipedia recent changes channels, but in the last month or so is not able to do that anymore [07:51:09] my same bot seems to work fine when connecting to just one channel [07:51:59] i was wondering if something might've changed with the irc configuration, or maybe the wikimedia network? i'm kind of out of ideas :) [08:22:23] edsu: AFAIK your bot is the only one [08:22:53] Or it's the only one people complained about because of its channel flooding. [08:28:05] Replied at https://github.com/edsu/wikichanges/issues/1 [09:53:07] Nemo_bis: is it because it wants to join 30 channels all at once? [09:53:31] Nemo_bis: the bot seems to work fine when joining only one channel, and nobody every complained before for several years. [09:54:08] Nemo_bis: thanks for finding that discussion in the log [09:54:18] Nemo_bis: and adding it to the github ticket [09:55:06] edsu: sorry for not reporting to you earlier, I never investigated myself and I missed that it was a tool of yours with a repo on github [09:55:25] It seems everyone assumed that someone else would report to the owner ;) [09:55:28] it's actually a library that gets used in multiple tools [09:55:59] Nemo_bis: yeah, well -- that's ok -- i don't really do much work with it anymore, but other people do, and that's how i heard about it [09:56:08] ok [09:56:19] kinda weird that there are people idling in those channels :) [09:56:37] well, maybe not so weird for the lower volume ones [09:57:08] Nemo_bis: so was there a block put in place?
