- | you create one? Thanks.
-
- Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggghhh NOT AGAIN!!
-
- To create a automated client... do the following:
-
- 1. Important.. firstly read the Green Golf Ball Joke. :-)
-
- 2. Write some code, or use an existing client to connect to a server.
-
- 3. Parse the stuff sent to your program from the server
-
- 4. Do something useful with it. (keeping chanop and kicking and
- maintaining bans doesnt count).
-
- 5. Observe good bot ettiquette. Ie, dont send unsolicited messages.
- Dont send messages, send out only notices. Dont respond to
- notices.
-
- 6. Remove it from IRC when the novelty wears off (~10-15 mins hmm..:-\
- better make that 60 mins since small things amaze small minds).

- herm.
