Documentation

If non-nil, flood protection is enabled.

Flooding is sending too much information to the server in too short of an interval, which may cause the server to terminate the connection.

Note that older code conflated rate limiting and line splitting. Starting in ERC 5.6, this option no longer influences the latter.

See erc-server-flood-margin for other flood-related parameters.
