Author Topic: New Omnimaga IRC Bot (Read 10884 times)

I just made a new IRC bot that updates new posts to IRC.

It checks the latest post RSS feed every 15 seconds, and when the URL of the latest post changes, it assumes there's been a new post.

It then retrieves the page and extracts both the title of the page(which is the title of the thread), and the last poster.

But

I still need a name for the bot

gimme some names!

OPostGet
A-Updater
MyRawrBot

How about calling it "OmniRSS"? Nice, simple, and sort of self-explanatory

Btw awesome

just make sure the bot has speed throttling so it won't overload the omni server nor get kicked for excess flood on IRC when it's 8 PM on week days

I'm deciding between

RSSBot45

NomBot45

CherryBot

OmniBot45

and maybe

PostBot45

Nice.

Because it's part of Netham45 bots. It will make it easier to know it's either by Netham45 or part of his botnet

Netham45 · « **Reply #8 on:** April 03, 2010, 11:21:35 pm »

'Netham45'

The nickname has to be 9 character long

meishe91 · « **Reply #12 on:** April 03, 2010, 11:27:19 pm »

You could however shorten "Peanut Counter" to PnutCnt45 or PnutCnter.
