I can guarantee that it;s a fake player and not a real one since i have been spectating on them, he enters the server and the game and then isn't moving at all only 'robotic' moves with the view like an old camera up-down-rotate, sometimes joins like 2-3 with the same ip and some random port.

A plugin isn't the solution. You should fix your server.

Can you be more precise, please? What do you mean by hooking SayText but without orpheu?
@wickedd i don't know if this is related to server itself since even the integrated flood plugin from amxx(latest version 1.8.2) isn't catching the frequency for those messages
Ok so i have found another thing, if i'm spect then i see original message, if i'm in game i see replaced message(i have a plugin to replace those messages with another ones based on register_clcmd say ) so this could be from ghostchat plugin?

Did you try banning them?

[Clauu]

Well this isn't a viable solution.. a more elegant way it;s to filter data for junk messages and this i'm trying to accomplish

If there are players coming into your server that are causing problems, the proper solution is to ban them. There is no good reason to combat the symptoms of a problem when you can easily prevent the actual root cause.

You came here to find a solution to your problem and you have been given the best solution available.

I prefer to do much more related to an amxx plugin than just banning them In this way maybe there are others that will benefit from this plugin

That's because you can't ban them.

The only people a plugin would benefit are those with a server like yours, so read my first again.

I don't think there's any way to bypass the "say" command to flood, so there is another reason antiflood is failing.
To flood there has to be 4 messages that each are .75 seconds (or 3 seconds if already flooding) apart. For every message outside of that limit the flood will decrease by one level. Maybe the reason is that this bot is only writing 3 messages or that it pauses enough between the flooding messages". That would make the plugin fail. But it's pretty easily changed...

if (g_Flood[id] >= 3)

your saytext isn't working because every other plugin that uses it before your plugin (and prints a message) will just bypass whatever you do
examples like ghostchat, green admin messages and other crap

put your plugin on the first line in plugins.ini and the hook will work


also, the exploit is called xfakeplayers1.1 and it's basically a client emulator, but has no support for steam so yah
I can send you a link to my plugin which (sort of)blocks those messages via PM because I don't wanna be beheaded

[Clauu]

Yep, i figured it out that there are others plugins in front of mine using the same say register and in fact the solution is as you said
