294822 - [GREETING] Add preference for disabling C++ is evil comments

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 303287

(Webtools Graveyard :: Mozbot, enhancement)

Description

[Wolf [:wolf]]

In some channels, its annoying to have mozbot respond to people saying C++ in
channel. So, while I was digging into the code to comment out the code to
disable it, I decided to implement it as a pref instead. (basically a copy of
hitEnabled, called evilEnabled.)

If it really is annoying, just increase the evilBackoffTime to some suitably
high number (like a year or something) that is less annoying. :-)

Attachment: Add evilEnabled option to greeting module

Adds evilEnabled option to greeting.bm, (default: enabled, as it is now, set to
0 to disable)
