Hide Repeated Messages v0.1

Simple plugin to hide repeated messages. I created it to lower the chat noise on my server. It's an easy way to hide repeated spam messages, and say commands such as "/rank".

It compares each message against the last 9 messages, and doesn't show it if it's the same as any of them. If you want it to compare with more/less messages change NUMOFMESSAGES and recompile.

This is my first plugin, please let me know how I can improve the code.

Nice idea, you could just check last specific players messages.
Any reason you don't use equal or equali natives ?

Exolent's Anti-Spam does this.

Thanks.

I prefer it to check against messages from all players, it's simpler and blocks more noise.

I didn't know about equal/equali: I'm new to this. :p I've updated the code.

That blocks the text and displays a "Stop spamming messages!" warning. If I use a Kreedz plugin on my server and people type ".checkpoint" or ".gocheck" a lot then it will stop them from being able to do it. Or I think you can set it to not block them, but then you have all the noise again. Maybe they're too similar, I don't know.

Yours is still different than mine, because yours checks the recently used chat messages, rather than only allowing each message to be sent once.

They do the same in the end (alleviate the chat from repeated messages). But his handle the says individually (per client). So, they have a little difference but, I think his method is better and makes this one redundant, sorry. Anyway, my opinion doesn't matter.

Check it out.
