TALK - I just obtained a potion! — 18:40, 22 April 2011 (EDT)
Well, there has been some talk about a new bot for the IRC. As seen here(Sorry, I forgot to log the other times -_-);

[12:55] <wolf5000> No it's going slow

[12:55] <wolf5000> It would go faster if no one shoots down the idea of another bot

[12:56] <wolf5000> But all who have seen the last bot hate bots.

[12:57] <wolf5000> But since there is an admin here i will ask.

[12:57] <wolf5000> KrytenKoro Can we have another irc bot?

[12:58] <Sove> It's more of a community decision

[12:58] <Sove> Not admin decision

[13:01] <KrytenKoro> I'm not in charge of bots, and don't know how to set them up

[13:01] <KrytenKoro> DTN would be the one for that

[13:03] <Sove> But it's still not only DTN's opinion that counts

And then later, while DTN, KK and Xion were all here...

[18:15] <Xion4ever> Fun? Yes. Amusing? Of course.

[18:15] <Xion4ever> Annoying? Heck yes. Abused/spammed? More than you know.

[18:17] <Keyblade0> [13:01] <KrytenKoro> I'm not in charge of bots, and don't know how to set them up

[18:17] <Keyblade0> [13:01] <KrytenKoro> DTN would be the one for that

[18:17] <Xion4ever> I ran across a page on how to set them up...I could probably find the link(s).

[18:17] <Xion4ever> Thing is: do we want/need one?

Should there be a new kitty- I mean bot to watch over the IRC?

Keyblade-Blk.png NO. No no no no no no no no no. Godawful idea.

The last bot was 100%, absolutely abused right from the start. karma was used to offend people, output features became tools of spam and personal attacking, roll was abused infinitely (no pun intended), and so forth. The IRC is doing quite well without an IRC bot--I quite like it at its current state of being a calmer, less "ZOMG GAIZ HAI SPAM SPAM SPAM SPAM SPAM OLOL" somewhat more mature channel than it was before. I refuse to allow a bot that is unavoidably going to become a tool for abuse that does absolutely NOT benefit the channel in any way to be added to the channel.
