Uhm, for some reason this got sent to Chris directly instead of the mailing
list, forwarding...

No, the "ubotu" nick is not exempt.
I thought it would actually be useful to mute Ubotu, since sometimes, when it
recovered from being seriously lagged, it started to spit out tons of replies
(for, say, all the factoid that had been unsuccessfully requested for the
past 10 minutes).
I could make Ubotu exempt, but... I tend to see it more as an issue with the
floodbots' tuning.
That is, if they're warning/muting Ubotu *undeservedly*, then they need to be
retuned. If they only do it when Ubotu is actually flooding, then it helps to
mute it.
