This is highly misleading, and sounds really childish lol.
I think it'd be best to let people like Cueshark, KRD, DarkOne etc decide these messages...
so how are they supposed to ask a bot if there are any leagues? Help bot doesn't even know what TUS is :D
The message will be automated when you enter the channel.
noobot?
It's mainly a hosting issue => $$$.
Senator and me were talking about this topic again and since it looks chanceless that anyone will provide us a server where we could run a bot for this purpose, we have came up with an idea that we could use a little program for this what the users who supports this idea could start when they are online.
So it's like you would start a little script when you start your computer for example that would do this spamming job. So there wouldn't be a dedicated server for the bot where it could run anytime, but we could run it on several computers which could provide that the bot would be online most of the time.
Of course this script would be designed that only one copy of it could be online at once, so if somebody would start it when somebody else already started it, then the newly started script would wait for tha already running one to stop. And when it would stop then the new would continue the job.
What do you think? :o
Instead of creating a new bot let's discuss how to improve the current Help bot to be more attractive to visitors of #AnythingGoes.Let's make it work for example? xD
I think i may host it on my VPS with UCVerse (only #UCian knows what is)This sounds good! :D
Ye, the problem with help bot is that it is invisible for users.. i mean i guess 97% of people don't now about it and 2% of the remaining 3 can't use it, because they don't know what they are looking for.
Our plan is to make a bot which tells you the basics (it would greet newbies and would send a link where the new player can find the info on his own language).
Btw StepS: is it possible to modify help bot? Is it yours?
Zexorz: ye we should find some parts of the software where we could work together. Btw can we run .net code on your server? Then the irc part could be copy paster from great snooper's source code.
In my opinion this bot can be written in a day or two, so I think the main task of this project is to make that helper topic somewhere and to translate it into some languages. Who will give it a first try? ;) And where should we make it? Here on tus forums or on worms2d.info? Here I think we would need a subforum to allow some people to modify the post if it is needed, on worms2d.info anyone could modify the text, coz it's like wikipedia.

Could use current Help bot for this. CyberShadow controls it, right? Similar automated message like on #Help channel would not require much work I guess. Compared to Help channel, the message would include answers to most important questions (hosting, snoopers, TUS sites etc).

help bot is helping ONLY if write !HELPYes. So tell me what has to be improved in the Help bot so I could make it more helpful to newcomers.
"we need"
no we don't.
we don't need a spam bot.
Your willingness to help negates your abilitiy to be useful.
We don't need a spam bot to tell people that there's guides out there about the game. People don't care. And those who care, those who have played games before are totally aware of google and don't need a spam bot to influence them to use it.
This whole idea is literally gratuite.
edit: please do a matchmaker when you're done with this!
And I've been always wondering why channels show who joined the channel, who left it, who hosted the game. Messages disappear so quickly by moving up. Don't you think it may be a problem?
Got another nice idea. Multilanguage support (coz not everyone understand english so well)
How to detect? [13:28:41] Zexorz is ~UC@no.address.for.you * 37 11 PL HexChat
(NICK is ~CLAN(or_Username)@no.address.for.you * Numerical_Country Rank Country Snooper/IRC)
So do anyone care about this? :D what about doing something? :D
I think all we need to do is making a community with a private board and we can start to make threads ;)
Anyone in? I think we need 2-3 players who can maintain the base english text and 1-1 player who will translate it into his/her language.
I am working on a tutorial handbook for new players. Who are willing to translate that text into his/her own language? (30 minutes of work).
In my opinion there should be made a subforum for this project (like the subforum of the promotion project) and there we could make topics like "Newbie guide book - English", "Newbie guide book - Deutsch", etc. Depending on the flag of the player in #AG the player would get a message on his/her own language with a link to the proper topic. In the subforum the text of the "guide book" could be maintain easily by the team of the moderators of that subforum. What do you think?
Btw in parallel the development of the bot could be started if you are up to that Zexorz ;)
I dont see any informations whn i loggin in.It gives information to new nicks.
How ur bot works Fada?

I am going to change the welcome message following what Senetor did pm me.
A link to a snooper might be a good idea as well..

Definitly.
Register also at tus-wa.com to play in leagues and cups!
Why dumb? :oQuote from: SenatorRegister also at tus-wa.com to play in leagues and cups!
Let's keep dumb advertisements away from welcome messages.

Nah... New people need just to get familiar with the schemes (and the people) ... If I were a newbie and you spam me with a bunch of weird shit I wouldn't give a f@#!. Snoopers are not needed in those first stages. As soon as they start playing and getting familiar with the atmosphere, they will realize there are snoopers and what not.
bring back !seen if you can fadaThat's something I agree with,100%
We need RefundBot for new WWP. xD
A bot that will explain how shitty WWP is and how glorious WA is. Seriously make it happen.
We need RefundBot for new WWP. xDYeah. They should just remake Worms 2 instead, and put WWP's exclusive features in there, while retaining compatibility between the two games. And actually fix the bugs. That way, we would have users that would actually get used to the features and leave users like you happy until WA 4.0 comes out. Also, it should have a few new weapons (coming from the Worms Unlimited project), like the tornado, for example.
