Default The farewell hack, aka the AutoBahn

We have had some unruly members on our site lately. and due to their actions they were given temporaty bans by my moderators. I have created a time based hack that allows my moderators to ban a user in the form of misery, starvation, etc..., for any period between 1 hour to 7 days.

When these users come back from their ban, some of them have actually been so mad that they have made farewell posts saying how much they hate the site, or this is going to be their last post, or they have requested to be removed from the user list, and so on.

So to make matters more interesting, I came up with the idea of the AutoBahn hack. :laugh: This hack scans the subject and the message body of a new thread for certain phrase patterns and if it is able to match one or more patterns it posts an auto reply with the userID of my Robot Administrator stating the following:

Quote:
Your post indicates that you no longer wish to be a member of this site.

Your ID has been banned.

Contact the site administrators about reinstating your account.

Good bye.
Then it proceeds with closing that thread and banning the user who posted the thread. It's a nice way to give the boot to people who think that they are hurting your feelings by leaving your site. :laugh::banana:

What I need to do as a follow up is to have the hack send them an Email notice informing that they have been banned.

I had one of my users try this out last night. Worked like a charm.
