Offer: I will program an IRC bot for you. reddit / irc ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Darkwinggun · 2012-07-24 12:49 Hi. I am currently studying computer science and am looking for some practice. The bot should be smaller-scale (up to 2 weeks of work) and will run on the jvm (java). We can discuss the specific requirements via pm. I am open to any project. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Techno_Shaman · 2012-07-24 15:59 Hey there, i might have a project you'd like. I run a sub called /r/TripSit. It's a sub to give people peace of mind while they're doing various substances. It's not a 'suicide watch' sub, but just a chill community of people who do drugs and like to talk online about their experiences with people who have similar experiences. Okay, that's the intro. Hopefully i havn't scared you away from the project with all the drug talk. Currently one of our regulars has created a bot that does a couple commands: * google x: A google search for the following terms * erowid x: Google search of erowid for the following terms * chillout: Plays a chill out song at random from a list It's really useful an awesome, but i'd like to expand it to include more commands: * Toys: Comes back with a random 'toy' webapp on the net. * Help: 'Pings' everyone in chat * Dose x: Would make the bot record the time of dosage and what substance * Whatuon: Display peoples username and what they're on and how long since they dosed. These are what i can think of at the moment. I'm new to IRC so i dont know the limitations of this project, but it doesnt seem like too hard of a task. It's more or less entirely recreational, so if a better project comes along that you would like to use your time on then go for it. Im sure i can come up with more commands to use or much functionality, but id rather see if you're interested in the project first. If you dont respond ill assume it as a no, and no hard feelings will be had. Take care! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- tua44299 · 2012-07-24 19:30 Hey, We're in the process of setting up a IRC channel at /r/stockmarket. We need a simple bot that would give us automod when joining and keep the channel up. Think you could help? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Kabraxis · 2012-07-24 19:49 Boy, I just came here to say that i especially appreciate your "daily kindness". Free IRC Bot? Sure do! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [deleted] · 2012-07-24 19:51 I believe you can get chanserv to do it for you. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- tua44299 · 2012-07-24 20:06 Thanks! Here's our channel if you're interested: http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=%23reddit-stockmarket ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Darkwinggun · 2012-07-24 20:55 As long as it does not get out of scale its fine :) Everything beyond has to be discussed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Paradox · 2012-07-25 02:19 I applaud you for making a bot, but I advise you to chose some language other than java. While bots can be made in java, the net stack is a huge pain in the ass ---------------------------------------------------------------------- callthepolice · 2012-08-04 02:57 > java > net stack ಠ\_ಠ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- seiyria · 2012-08-21 15:30 Well, I would advise you take a look at the [pircbotx](http://code.google.com/p/pircbotx/) library if you truly believe this.
