InvisionHQ Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 File Name: [HQ] Miserable Users File Submitter: InvisionHQ File Submitted: 17 Apr 2011 File Category: Utilities Supported Versions: IP.Board 3.4.x Has it ever happen to you that you have had enough of those annoying users that troll your forums and misbehave? And you are tired of banning them? If it has, then this hook might come in handy to you. This hook will annoy those irritating users by making their browsing experience very miserable at your forum. Which hopefully will make them go away and troll somewhere else.You can have fun with the annoying users with the following things:1) Random Blank Pages! You can show blank page to the annoying users at a random percantage.2) Random 404 Error Messages! You can show a 404 error message at a random percantage to the annoying users.3) Minimum Loading Delay Speed! 4) Maximum Loading Delay Speed! You can make it so that they (the annoying users only) will experience an extremely slow page load at your forum.5) Random Redirections! You can redirect them randomly to whatever url/page that you would like to have some fun.6) Random Posting Restriction! You can restrict the annoying users from posting at a random percantage.7) Forum Exclusion! If for some reason you want them to browse&post normally at a forum/s, then you can exlude that particular forum/s from all the above mentioned things.8) Random PM Disable! You can disable the PM System for annoying users at a random percantage.9) Random Chat Restriction! You can disable Chat access for annoying users at a random percantage.10) Miserable User Message! And as last but not least, if after all this they still won't get the message, you can ram it home to them by showing a message at the board index that will be visible only to them. This was the most fun hook coding for me.Installation: After you install the MiserableUsers.xml file through Manage Hooks in your Admin Panel, you can configure it to your likings/needs at the System Settings->NenaDice. To have an idea how it looks like when used, please check the below screenshots. The hook is compatible with 3.2.x as well. A follow up application which will give you the possibility to frustrate all the annoying ip addresses as well that you do not want to browse your forum has been released here:http://community.inv...e-ip-addresses/ Compatible with 3.4.x as well. here to download this file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Timeless Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Could be most useful for those pesky annoying kids that like to lurk. Thanks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aisha Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Hahaha I remember this mod from before. Cool to see that you made one for 3.1. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NenaDice Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Thank you for your feedback guys :)Spring Sale: If you buy this hook now, you will get a second of my paid hooks for free. This action is valid until the end of this month! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lockjit Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Thanks for taking the time to do this NenaDice, I've only been using it a couple of hours and already have a couple of guys on the list. I think the only thing I would change is the way that you add/manage members to it, would be nice to do it with screen names rather than member numbers. I imagine it might become quite hard to manage if you have many people on it. All that does not detract from the fact that it is a great hook that I and I am sure many other Invision users have been waiting a long time for. Thanks also for the great Spring offer... The second hook will come in very handy. Great job :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see what you mean for the screen names as it would be easier to remember them. I never thought of that. You are most welcome about the second hook :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael R Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Is there an easy way to find the member id? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NenaDice Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Is there an easy way to find the member id? Yes. You can get the id of an user by either hoovering over its nickname or when click at an user 's nick it will appear at the browser. For example: http://site.com/user/99-username/ The numeric part, 99 is the user id. And thank you for your business :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NenaDice Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 I purchased this mod but don't remember seeing an option for a second "free" mod. Did I miss something? Hi. Thank you for your business :) There is no automatic option to download a second paid mod for free. Let me know which one you would like and I will either pm it or email it to you, whatever option you would prefer :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NigelT Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Isnt this a conversion from VBulletin? I used this for a couple of years before switching to IPB recently. If it is then I will buy it, its one of the most effective troll deterents ever :devil: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsyvarth Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 From the looks of it, I think it is inspired by other modifications, but it isn't a port or conversion of any other mod. It is just similar. He wrote the code entirely by himself though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the name is the same but I wrote it from scratch so to speak. This mod is very effective as well btw :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tealnet Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Hi, I have installed this hook, and want to test it out. I have added the users's system id, and have increased the percentages. I have logged in as the user on a separate computer, yet I do not see any of the blank pages, re-directs, or delays. Is there something I am missing here?

NenaDice Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Did you enable it as well? Can you please post a screenshot of the hook settings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tealnet Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Yes, I have enabled it. Here is the screenshot: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NenaDice Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 From the screenshot it looks ok. Can you please uninstall the hook, redownload the mod package and re-install it again? And let me know how it will go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tealnet Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 Re-installation worked! Thanks so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
