Chat Stop Restriction Based on Message Length
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In chat systems, users often stop chatting immediately after posting a message, leading to inequality as the recipient may not have enough time to respond, especially when the message is lengthy, resulting in unsatisfactory communication.
Innovation Solution
A chat system with a keyword storage and judgment mechanism that restricts message reception and output for a determined time based on the presence of specific keywords in the message, ensuring the recipient has adequate time to respond.

1Ease of operation
If a user can stop chatting at any time, then the user has full control over the chat function, but the recipient may not have enough time to respond, leading to inequality between users
Solution Approach 1:
The system preemptively prevents a user from stopping the chat function immediately after sending a message by imposing a chat stop restriction period. This preliminary anti-action counteracts the potential harm of abrupt chat termination, ensuring the recipient has adequate time to respond and maintaining communication fairness.
Solution Approach 2:
The chat stop restriction period is dynamically adjusted based on the length of the sent message. Longer messages result in longer restriction periods, while shorter messages result in shorter restriction periods. This dynamic adjustment ensures the restriction is proportional to the communication context and maintains fairness without过度 limiting user control.
2Reliability
If a fixed chat stop restriction period is imposed, then the recipient is guaranteed time to respond, but the restriction period may be too long for short messages or too short for lengthy messages, reducing communication efficiency
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts the chat stop restriction period based on the character count or length of the sent message. This dynamic parameter adjustment ensures the restriction period is appropriately matched to the message content, preventing both excessive waiting times for short messages and insufficient time for lengthy messages, thereby maintaining both fairness and efficiency.
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the time parameter of the chat stop restriction based on the message length parameter. By establishing a relationship between these two parameters (e.g., restriction period = base time + k × message length), the system adapts the restriction duration to match the communication needs, optimizing both reliability and productivity.
3Reliability
If the chat stop restriction is determined by message length, then appropriate response time is provided, but the system becomes more complex requiring message analysis and dynamic calculation
Solution Approach 1:
The system uses simple parameter changes based on message length (character count or word count) to determine the chat stop restriction period. By establishing a straightforward mathematical relationship between message length and restriction time, the system achieves appropriate response time guarantees without requiring complex message content analysis or sophisticated algorithms.

AI summary
Provided are a chat system for realizing good communication between users, a control method for a chat device and a chat server, and an information storage medium. Upon receiving a message, a message transfer unit (11a) transfers the message to a game terminal of a transferring destination, and a stop restriction unit (11c) transmits an instruction (restricting instruction) to restrict a chat function stop processing on the game terminal which has transmitted the message, thereby restricting stopping of the chat function on the game terminal. A stop restricting time calculation unit (11d) calculates a period (stop restricting period T) for restricting the chat function stop processing in accordance with the character count (p) of the received message and the judgment by a keyword presence/absence judgment unit (11e), and a timer unit (11b) specifies a stop restricting time end time. Upon arrival of the stop restricting time end time, the stop restriction unit (11c) transmits an instruction (restriction release instruction) to release the restriction on the chat function stop processing.
