New TradeBot?

Post by noelleionscowl »

Hi all,
No offense Turmfalke,
I have noticed that the famous TradeBot's availability has been reduced. I do not blame you, turmfalke, or whoever hosts tradebot.

As a school group project, I am starting to program a tradebot. They will be placed in five locations. There will also be five messenger bots.

If you are a dev, please let me know if this would be acceptable. These bots would be available to everybody, and nobody would be banned without reason. However, there are certain features that would not be available to all but an elite few. Such as my class. Those features would be adding and removing donation money/items and other things as such.

If anyone would like to provide me with an easier and faster way for a computer to navigate from Hurnscald to Tulimshar, please let me know.

Information about the tradebot is available at tradehub.webs.com

Thanks,
Noelle IonScowl.

also, spec thx to eeblejeeble, cutlf1sh, Cool Kid, and J Triggs.

I personally think Turmfalke's tradebot is perfect.We don't need another tradebot.We need a tradebot in who we can trust.I don't want to give a rare item to the tradebot and lose it.So,no other tradebot.

Currently it happens rather often that when TradeBot loses the connection, he trys to reconnect but often gets stuck in the map server login. I am not sure, why but it often takes several trys to get TradeBot to pass all the 3 servers. Anyway, if you notice that TradeBot isn't online please contact me on irc so I can restart it. About your idea of writing your own tradebot, I won't stand in your way, but 10 new bots sounds a bit over the top.

That's quite all right.

Not that I'm still trying to pitch the tradebot, as it will not be done for the next few months, but it may support a feature that allows purchases and offers to the normal tradebot.

Really, the only reason why I am creating this tradebot is that there is no tradebot in Dimond Cove, or anywhere but Hurnscald and it is a real pain to go back and forth there.

oh.... all right.

How do you use the IRC?

And yes, the bots are extremely extensive. They will be down more than up, but I'm designing a triple redundancy based on 18 computers.

Yes, my friends who own them keep them on all night. It should be perfect.

Would you be terribly opposed to letting my bot use your interface to buy things from your tradebot on behalf of other players?

The tradebot we have now is fine, it works perfectly. why would we need more then 1 tradebot? that sounds a bit rediculous to me and it would be just a extra add on people would get confused on.

Theres nothing wrong with having to walk to hurnscald to access the tradebot, you can whisper it anywhere you are all you have to do is walk to it. why would we need a tradebot in Dimond Cove? Tradebot was put in hurnscald because thats where everyone usually goes for marketing and purchasing of items from stores or from other players. it seems at least 80% of players hang around hurnscald anyway.

Im not talking about tulimshar im clearly talking about dimonds cove if you read it properly. And your right its not easy to go there because of the prices right now. but its also not that hard making 1k of gp.
