Nostalrius Begins - Quality wow vanilla realm (1.12)

Hi all !

I enjoy a lot this server, but i have a very anoying bug. All addons that need a channel to communicate like dps metter, aggro metter (and many else) make me mute when they work, thanks to the server anti spam system with the message :
"You have to wait 30 seconds to speak again".

I know that, it is an anti spam function and i respect that. But this feature actually block many usefull vanilla addons that can be very usefull in PvE. Otherwise, i'm not sure that 30 seconds system is enouth to realy block spam bot or so.

Hope that you will consider.

This annoyed me, too.

For managing our guild we are trying to use some addons like
- GuildAds
- GroupCalendar

Which are very usefull ingame addons !
The only problem is that they use a channel to sync, and the server anti spam block this sync.

Is there a way on our side to change something about that ?
Is there a solution on your side to keep the anti spam system but only allow addons sync without restriction ?

Here is a problem of illimited syncro time :

There is also a secondary bug with this that the invisible channels that addons use get bugged in the same way the primary ones do and they destroy addon communication.

The anti-spam messes with damage/healing meters and is very annoying.

Totally ! I reported it here : https://report.nostalrius.org/plugins/tracker/?aid=636

Make sure you have updated your addons to the newest version.
In 1.12 blizzard updated the API and added the function SendAddonMessage, this command is NOT blocked by spam (I have tested this my self).

If you have a common addon (like damage/threat meters) and get muted, then you are using an old version (pre-1.12) of it and should update.

I have no problem with being muted and I run the following version:
SW_Stats: 2.0 Beta 7 (/sws con to see version)
KTM: Release 17 Revision 35 (/ktm version to see version)

As for the calender addon, check if there is a newer version, or update the addon to use the SendAddonMessage function.

that's not so easy as you say, guildads for 1.12.1 uses hidden whispers
in later versions it uses SendAddonMessage() but far after 2.1 and with 2.1 they added "WHISPER" to the target parameter of SendAddonMessage().
i tried to fix that, but that would mean i have to rewrite a lot of guildads and no.. i don't want to
