Behavior to 'unquiet' after correctly answering a question in IRC DM?

[jywarren]

Is this possible? I'm writing the new quiet rule docs at https://publiclab.org/chat#IRC and the workflow to de-quiet someone is a little awkward and slow. If plotsbot could have some kind of simple interaction with a person we could probably be sure they're not a bot themselves... @ryzokuken @icarito

What is the "quiet exemption" command in IRC anyways?

[icarito]

Quiet exemption on OFTC IRC network is as follows (from https://www.oftc.net/ChannelModes/):

Channelmodes that take Hostmasks as Parameters
b - ban this hostmask
q - quiet this hostmask. Anyone matching this hostmask will be unable to speak on the channel
e - exempt this hostmaks from bans and quiets

So something like /mode +e ircuser@hostmask

[jywarren]

OK! So:

/mode #publiclab +e nick

Could this just be a behavior that you direct message at plotsbot with something like @plotsbot unquiet me and plotsbot responds with the above unquiet command, as a behavior itself?

[jywarren]

@ryzokuken what do you think?

[jywarren]

Done! For now, simply write /msg plotsbot approve me and it works, via approveBehavior!
