Q: can I automatically remove every DM with URL domain in it?

Post by bitcoin »

I'm so tired of "Hello #Altcoin #Bitcoin" and "See my blah.INSTAGRAM.com/sdfsdfsdfds".

I would be so grateful if I could automatically remove every DM that contains an URL to the domain instagram and every DM that contains the text "Altcoin #Bitcoin" (my twitter username). Only ppl calling me #Altcoin #Bitcoin are inhuman bots ;p

Please advise :)

I have looked for your solution and sadly i found nothing. What i can do is ping martin for it. Let's wait for his reply. :)

basically you want an IGNORE term filter for download DM inbox?

and there already is a DM IGNORE FILTER

so just add "instagram" and it should ignore all DMs that contain "instagram"

I work on twitter.com so I really want to remove (or make them invisible) there... So delete function would be most obvious, no?

If someone says 'instagram'-url or "#Altcoin #Bitcoin" in a DM to me... NUKE it.

I am correct to assume I can not filter on:
#Altcoin #Bitcoin

One might use #Altcoin in a proper way in the DM. Also some bots remove the # and just DM me "Hello Altcoin Bitcoin"

Those can go; just filtering on #altcoin works too but has a bit of risk in it...

Otherwise: again: thank you :) I sure hope this will make my life better
