Player joins a guild event

kiingz · 09-30-10, 03:16 PM

Hey
Is there any event that fires when a player joins a guild?
So if your in a guild and someone else joins.

I thought it could be GUILD_ROSTER_UPDATE or GUILD_EVENT_LOG_UPDATE, but those are only run when you open the guild tab or log window.

PLAYER_GUILD_UPDATE at a guess (not tested)

well GUILD_ROSTER_UPDATE uses GuildRoster()

I am not sure what you are trying to do but I guess you could save a list of guild members via GuildRoster() and then run a timer to check for changes .......

You would have to know who the player in question would be before inviting them to guild.

I guess if the OP could give us more detail in what he or she is trying to do we would have a better idea of how to help.

I assumed he wanted an event for when "he" joins a guild,
not when someone else joins "his" guild

The latter case would probably be alot easier to catch with a simple CHAT_MSG_SYSTEM and capturing the message pattern.

Yea thats how I do it for my welcome to the guild spam addon.

Basically, this certain pest of a player keeps joining the guild, I know his characters name.
Whenever he joins I would like it to remove him from the guild.

I was going to have the addon act whenever someone joins the guild to run the command to remove him regardless if its not him since it would be easier then trying to search for his name.

However if there's a better way then it would be great.

I tried PLAYER_GUILD_UPDATE. It only fires on the character joining the guild.

why does he keep getting invited then? why don't you just restrict who can invite people to your guild?

iif you open your guild frame
click Guild Information > Log
the log will show who invited him, so boot/demote him

I am aware of that, its an odd situation.
I'm not the GM.

Simply kicking him is all I can do atm.

ummmm. I think and I may be wrong. But you can use the /who information.

Have a addon /who toon
On the information getting received if it comes back that he is in guild name <xyz> then kick otherwise halt. Have the script run on a timer. Or only have it fire when you login as if he got invited when you were online you would prob notice.

I saw a addon a while ago that was the complete oppsite of this. Think it was ninja Inviter. As you were traveling the world it would request info for each toon you came across if they were not in a guild it would invite them, but i think the addon died when they made the changes to access /who and the number of requests you could make.
