34 <PRE> Regex autokills are already on the TODO list, but as mentioned in the
35 other reply they wouldn't be as well supported by ircds as regular ones.

43 </I>><i>Just a brainstorm i had, here goes. (Excuse bad spelling i had a rough sleep)
45 </I>><i>WAKILL... What the hell is WAKILL you might ask, let me explain.
47 </I>><i>Recently i've noticed that 'standard' akills just won't be able to ban what
48 </I>><i>we need, so i figured we need akills with 'more' or 'better' wildcards.
50 </I>><i>If not for instance, bots connect with QKGJLKSD, QKLGJLKE, QLKTEFDF,
51 </I>><i>QGKLJEGS as ident and all random realname and nicknames, we can only put an
52 </I>><i>akill on *Q*@* something which is generally not so great.
54 </I>><i>Now lets see what they have in common, they all start with teh letter Q and
55 </I>><i>have a total of
8 characters, all upcase. Now if we could just add an akill
57 </I>><i>*Q{
7,CU}*@*
59 </I>><i>This would mean, akill all idents starting with a capital Q, and
7
60 </I>><i>characters (
7,C) after that and all UPPERCASE (U). Now i'm no real wizard
61 </I>><i>with making new wildcards and stuff but i'm sure people have already made
62 </I>><i>up things like this for other programming languages. With this method you
63 </I>><i>could remove the bots you normally can't.
65 </I>><i>Another example
67 </I>><i>bots connect with the ident
1234567_,
6364356_,
9589435_ once again all
68 </I>><i>random nickname and random nicknames and hosts.
70 </I>><i>New wakill way of banning this:
71 </I>><i>*{
7,N(
0-
9)}_@*
73 </I>><i>Akill all hosts with numbers which have
7 Numeric characters in a row from
74 </I>><i>the number
0 till
9. and a _ behind it.
76 </I>><i>These are ways that imho won't kill massive amounts of users like you would
77 </I>><i>normally with for instance *~Q*@*, if the ident isn't resolved at these
78 </I>><i>hosts adding a ~ at the beginning makes the chances of a real user having
79 </I>><i>that exact mask near to
0%, chances of a user having an ident like
80 </I>><i>~
<A HREF=
"http://www.ircservices.za.net/mailman/listinfo/ircservices">84235664_ at host.here
</A> is very small, however banning a host like this with
81 </I>><i>*~{
7,N(
0-
9)}_@* would remove all the bots you had that were for instance
84 </I>><i>The reason i call it WAKILL, is because it differs so much from real
85 </I>><i>akills, i just figured WAKILL could mean something like Wildcard Akill.
87 </I>><i>I personally think this would be a real help on banning bots, with the
88 </I>><i>current way akills work you can never effectively ban a bot that has a mask
90 </I>><i>*
<7 random numbers in a row here
>@*
92 </I>><i>with the new way you would just do *{
7,N(
0-
9)}@* and you've gotten rid of
95 </I>><i>This can be combined with Numeric, Characters or Alfa numeric characters of
96 </I>><i>course, you could set a thing like
98 </I>><i>*{
7,UC(A-F)}@* to for instance ban idents with
7 characters in a row
99 </I>><i>differing from the letter A till the letter F, all being Uppercase.
101 </I>><i>I personally really don't feel users would be affected with this way of
102 </I>><i>akilling but bots would get removed alot faster and easier. If a botnet
103 </I>><i>with idents like the one i just said connect, with over
500 bots all random
104 </I>><i>hosts, nicknames and realnames you can't effectively ban them at all. With
105 </I>><i>this new way you can.
107 </I>><i>I hope you all get my point.
