Hi
When sending private messages, the flood filter does not seem to work properly, people get kicked based on the number of private message they send in a row, doesn’t matter how fast or slow they come in.
If they send a private message, then a regular non-private message, it seems to break the chain and there is no kick… but if you only send private messages you eventually get kicked.
Getting a lot of complaints about it, can you look into it? It's annoying when having a regular conversation with someone using private messages, and you get kicked for flooding (even though you are sending messages at a regular speed).
Thanks
Jamie.

I'm using the latest Smartfox Server on linux. AS3 API...
This is from my config.xml...
<AntiFlood active="true">
<MinMsgTime tolerance="10">500</MinMsgTime>
<MaxRepeatedMessages>10</MaxRepeatedMessages>
<WarningsBeforeKick>2</WarningsBeforeKick>
<WarningMessage><![CDATA[No flooding allowed!]]></WarningMessage>
<KickMessage><![CDATA[You've been warned! No flooding! Now you're kicked]]></KickMessage>
<BanMessage><![CDATA[Stop Flooding!! You're being banned]]></BanMessage>
<BanAfter timeSpan="1">3</BanAfter>
</AntiFlood>
