Indeed it has started Beta III [Build 16] for all of you awaiting this release enjoy!
What is Vanquish Bot?
Vanquish Bot is a pure moderation bot that's extensible and contains loads of moderation features and commands for your suiting. It currently uses a flag based system and connects via all clients (except pure expansion products: W3XP, D2XP) on a hashed connection as well as Warcraft III (BNLS).
Here's some information:

Please remember it's still only a beta. =)
Uh, what the fuck?
Shouldn't "flood bot mode" USE the queue and ignore the floodbots?
And what the fuck @ X:\blahblahblah? Your main hard drive is mounted under X? That's whack.
Haha I told him that

Flood mode is designed to ban flood bots, using a queue would only hinder this mode. Backing up the queue with flood bot bans is stupid and thus it eliminates the constant command of clearqueue users often use to make sure nothing is in the queue before a flood bot hits. Flood mode sort of has its own queue system that decides which flood bot to ban depending on when and the actual username. Because many normal bots would attempt to send multiple bans against the one flood bot, Vanquish does not it only sends one and during the first time flood bot joins and/or leaves. It also has a mandatory wait time of 5000ms before it will even attempt to ban another flood bot. The only real way to drop it is if there was a constant amount of flooding which you don't really see to often. Flood bot mode like in the readme is not recommended but it's proven to work against slightly slower flood bots (on proxies perhaps), it's optional and I do not require you to use it. In the next build I'll be sure to add some sort of flood bot evasion mode so it does not even pick up the flood bot to begin with and pass it through the calls. I probably should've coded this eariler but I didn't think much into it.
Yes I have an X:\, I encrypt all my data using Steganos Security Suite 7.x, it created an X:\. Stop dissembling my bot you ass. :P
Edit: Alright if you redownload it you'll notice a build change and that I added 'Floodmode evasion'. I hope this is what you wanted.
I have not checked the bot out, but I had this discussion with iago, and I believe this is what JavaOp2 does:
When a user joins, do not display anything they say within, say, 300ms. If that person joins, [says something], then leaves, do not show any of it (even the join/leave messages). This will render flooding completely useless, you won't even know they were there (might want to do soemthing to the channel list code, too ;))

Vanquish Bot is completely moderation meaning no channellist is there (you could add one via plugins). I've implimented my own bit of flood protection based on multiple packets.
I still think even attempting or hinting that you are going to ban a flood bot is pretty stupid and nothing to jizz your pants about.

This feature is mostly for chatting; users don't want to deal with that crap when they are talking.

I agree (that's why it's not recommended to be used) but today's bots are all about features.
I've got spring break starting Friday, so I promise I'll do my part, okay netty?
