We also should try a vizioneck new thread of Twitter. So basically every time a new thread goes up its sent out to twitter.

Or at least a feature for Legend to do that/and or mods. We might not want all threads to go public under the vizioneck name on twitter lol

So a Twitter account like "@VizionEckNewThreads" ? Yeah wouldn't be too hard.

Maybe only for threads in the gaming section?

Sounds good to me. Do we have some one working a twitter account?

I want a feature that everytime I make a post or thread sends every forum member a private message saying "DerNebel had to share his stupid opinion again"

Yeah no joke you'll be able to do that with personal bot scripts.

Lol, prepare yourself everyone

Also should fix up user walls and wall notification options.

Working on Forum Script. This post is mostly just for me to plan some things out.

Functions

PostMessage(Topic, board, subject, Message, icon, poster);

EditMessage(MessageID, subject, message, icon);

PostTopic(Subject, Message, Board, icon, poster);

EditTopic(Topic, newBoard, locked, stickied);

EditProfile(user, signature, background, wallMessage, wallSubject, avatar);

SendPM(Reciever(s); Subject, Message);

GetMessage(messageID OR topic, replyNumber OR user, postNumber);

GetWebsite(address);

Triggers:
Time

All time bots have the exact time of their next run. Cron job calculates next task, and sets itself to run at that time. Performs all bots within 10 seconds forward and all backward, just to make sure none are skipped.

Forum Action
Called just like bot system. Does a querry for current action, and calls scripts that fit the bill.

I have the back end of custom bots working. As you can see, the Machine updates her signature every 5 minutes and updates her title every 10 minutes.

This new system is more efficient, runs at the exact time requested, and can handle thousands of unique bot scripts. So now if you want to have a bot track youtube views or update Amazon rankings, it's much nicer and faster to set that up.


Can also do stupid things like make your avatar change throughout the day.

How do you set up a bot?

Eventually it'll be a new tab under your profile, but I haven't made it to that stage yet.
