Recording all PMs on server.
 

Anyone wanna point me in the right direction of how to accomplish this?

No, because doing that is really evil.

How about no? That's just screwing privacy over a bit, yes?

That's really weird that you'd want to do that... x_X anyways it's not 'legally' possible.

NOn

PMs are private. Why do you want to record them? So you can get in other peoples' business?

that's weird because PMs can be scanned for swears

Not by script. There's a built-in system where you define the words.

Invasion of privacy all over -rolleyes-.

Eh... he's not asking for ethics preaching, but how to script something.

In that case, if it were possible to do so:

You would need to know the system calls produced by the client, the incoming data's memory locations, the function that opens them up, and how to display the information. Parse and copy the data to somewhere, then write it. Of course, none of this information even passes through (normally) accessible areas of the server, although tweaking the swear filter is where one would start.

Don't even try it.

Exactly.

It's designed so you can't read the pm's :)

Create your own PM system, which would record player input. Then, disable the normal system.

Though I still think that they log them anyway, I will say that if you do that, I'd never play on a server you owned or worked on, and see that you are banned for invasion of privacy.
