I am trying to improve my moderation side of my Discord.py bot. I would like users not to send multiple lines of spam or anything considered as “line spam”
If someone were to send a lot of lines to attempt to cause nuisance and just raid a server, how would the bot detect if the message contains too many lines?
In Discord, a simple example of spamming could be sending multiple blank lines with a . on the outsides of the blank lines
. .
Is there a way to prevent this issue from happening?

If I understand right, you want to count lines of a given sting. so that you can use:
a = s.count('n')
in this code ‘a’ counts the lines of attribute ‘s’ and you can limit it like :
# if a is bigger than 50 so it is spam , then make it an empty string
if a>50:
s = ''
