Today I started work on a
twitch bot using Javascript, Node.js and TMI.js to timeout users who post links as their first message are normally people / bots who post links as first messages are trying to disrupt the stream or are posting links to buy followers from my experience moderating a couple of twitch streams. So I decided to try to combat this issue by making a twitch bot that looked at the message from the user and see's if it is their first message and then if it was their first message it would ping the URL in the message and if it was able to ping it would time the user out for 3 seconds to delete the message.
