22:40 <NekkaLucifer> So this is a long-shot, but is there anyone here that has managed to make a Cinch bot with per-channel rate limiting

22:44 <leftylink> NekkaLucifer: yeah, I have, works fine. I can't show the code for various reasons, but I just have an instance variable that's a hash where the k/v pairs are channel and time last command was issued on that channel. if time was too recent, reject command

22:44 <leftylink> note that cinch already limits itself on how many messages it will send to a channel, but it's can still be useful to rate limit commands

22:44 <leftylink> it's also possible to implement it as a hook if desired

22:49 <NekkaLucifer> I was hoping to implement a message queue per channel and delay replies rather than rejecting

22:51 <leftylink> hmm. there does appear to be a messages_per_second option ,but it applies globally instead of being able to set per-channel https://github.com/cinchrb/cinch/blob/master/lib/cinch/message_queue.rb#L84

22:51 <NekkaLucifer> yeah, I was gonna write it into the code myself

22:52 <NekkaLucifer> not just using the api

22:52 <NekkaLucifer> I've been going over it the last 2 days familiarising myself with the coding structure
