Hello there!
Today I have released some pretty more advanced anti-scam bot for groups than the previous one published by @DutchDeveloper ( Scam Remove Bot ).
It is published on the github and pretty easy to use.
But before you boot your amazing defender…
How to run Bot
open the bot directory in the cmd using cd command
type npm i request request-promise into the cmd
edit your config.json file. Here are few my tips about doing that:
login_type - set it to either "Username" or "Email". It will tell the script, what are you attempting to log in with.
login - your login or email (depends on what you have chosen in the login_type)
password - your bot’s password
group - your group’s id
scan_delay - time between auto scans ( SECONDS * 1000 )
banned_words - words, which will cause the risk level to rise by 1
target_level - level, which user needs to reach to be awarded with ban
op_ranks - ranks above this number, will be protected from banning
ban_rank - rank number to ban (eg. 10) YOU NO LONGER NEED TO ENTER THE ROLESET ID FROM THE LINK
ban_message - ban message subject
subject - message subject
body - message body
Initialization
Start your script with node index.js.
Bot will take awhile to scan old posts. It requires stable connection. If it breaks while this process, you need to restart the script to start from scratch (roblox api requires to scroll every page in the ascending order, because of the cursor system). It is prefered to run the initialization with very big scan_delay value to prevent multiple processes. After the primary scan, there shouldn’t be issues with the scan_delay set to 60 seconds. TIP: Scanning 100 pages took about 63 seconds for me. Worked without any issues with group having 17k pages.
UPDATE 11/18/2018
Updated scripts, prevented double attempt to ban, introduced ban messages. Make sure to update your config as it’s format changed.
If you want to modify the script, it is very easy. You just need to modify the index.js. I have already prepared few basic methods (eg. banning user).
IMPORTANT NOTES:
This is my commission for @RuizuKun_Dev and he wished to publish it and make open-sourced.
Project might be updated with few new methods eg. badges checking.
This bot works, but is no longer being worked on. If you prefer a live solution with a static uptime and a solid system, refer to Okwo . We give our best to maintain this bot, but we can’t promise to keep it updated everytime
Free to use, share, redistribute, modify and everything other.
You probably can run it on heroku as every other NodeJS scripts.
Posts currently clear on the interval (scan_delay property) and person is moved to the separated rank if triggered. However it is very easy to edit it to make it kicking (I guess I even had made a prepared method for that).
Yes, as long as the underscore is supposed to be in it. It also does have the permissions to. The users are not in the group anymore, can it still delete their messages? And if it can, what could be the issue?
It basically goes through all the names saying its banning them and then either stops or spews a weird delete message error thing. I’ll edit this once I get it again. It doesn’t appear to be online either.
The bot was outdated and was no longer functioning due to updates in Roblox’s api; scams also don’t appear so often now I think? (At least not that sort of scams that the bot removed)
