Banning problem

ID:146598

Code:
mob/verb/say(msg as text)
   if(src.no_talking == 1)
      usr << "You are muted."
      count_again++
      if(count_again == 5)
         usr << "You are now spamming and will be banned."
         Banned.Add(src.key)
         del src


Problem description:Right there where it says Banned.Add(src.key), well, it's not working. I need the person's key added to the Banned list. Why does it refuse to work. Why?

It would help us greatly if you showed us how you initialized the list.

I'd help you, but then I'd be helping a stupid idea.

You are banning someone for typing fast. Stupid.

Here i set this code up for you... also on a note i have it set up to where if it doesnt find a Bannedlist on world creation it creates a blank one... if 1 isnt created(such as you take out that part of the code and dont make load from a save file or something)this code wont work. On another not. im just helping cause im nice you shouldnt ban people for spamming after there muted o.O since nobody else is hearing what there saying.

world/New()
    if (!length(Bannedlist)) Bannedlist=list()

mob/var
    spamcount = 0
    no_talking = 1

var/Bannedlist[]

client/New()
    ..()
    if (Bannedlist.Find(ckey))
        src << "You have been banned from this game!"
        del src

mob/proc
    countagain(mob/M)
        spamcount++
         

mob/verb/say(msg as text)
    var/ckey = ckey(src.key,)
    if(src.no_talking)
        usr << "You are muted."
        countagain()
        usr << "You currently have tried talking while muted [usr.spamcount] times. If this reaches 5 you will be auto banned."
    if(spamcount >= 5)
        usr << "You are now spamming and will be banned!"
        Bannedlist.Add(ckey)
        del src
    if(src.no_talking == 0)
        world << "[usr]:[msg]"

I also have this set up to where the users key is saved in ckey format. that helps with problems using just key can create later on.

That's a very bad idea for the exact same reason Ryne stated, becouse like me I type considerably fast, correct, not always but I try ;).

Actually, I was fixin' on changing it so that if they spam while being muted, causing an error about 20 times, then they would be banned.

Ok, I initilized the list as follows
var/list/Banned = list("MasterLordLink")

You're using Find() incorrectly. You should use in stead! </bad pun>
