Automated Posting Script
 

I want to be able to "fake" an active forum. What I want to do is basically have a pre-written dialog between many members, and for a script to make posts randomly according to the dialog, using multiple member names.

Any suggestions?

to the top pleaes...

You could take a look at the bot script thats been posted, afraid you will have to search for it though as i cant remember where or what its called, sorry!

Thanks for the reply bashy...I've tried every search I can think of and no luck so far...

Anyone else have an idea as to where this mod is located??

why dont u try Rss Poster.

Because I want it to randomly make posts from a script to seem like an active forum, not just post updates everytime I think about updating it. I could just do it by hand that way...

would be less complicated to make some advertisement and recruit some posters... if you plan on building your site on random posts, your members will find the trick one day or another...

if you don't mind paying $97...i actually found this yesterday while search around

http://www.icomotion.com/ico-content/

looks interesting...

anyone tried it ?

I can't really figure out what they're offering.... and their demo is not working.... anyone?

I have, see my board >>>> http://www.computerforumz.org (2000 of the posts were done by reaL MEMBERS), the product has no support.

So would you recommend this product?

I'm an admin on a site that's been using the mod I recommending...and from what I've seen so far of it...i wouldn't...

most of the posts are like 1 line questions and even shorter answers...

maybe for like some off topic, not important section of the forum it would be nice...but any experience forum goer will EASILY (i can't stress that enough) be able to tell they are all fake

and we have to delete a lot of them as well, lots of spammy type messages...though this may just be because the owner didn't set it up correctly...

but as for me right now...i wouldn't recommend using the mod that I recommended...lol

Makes perfect sense! :)

I would most posts on my forum are over 5 lines long and are of great quality!

I would not recommend this to anybody. Was made by inexperienced programmer. It was his first hack, his words.

Check digital point posts or what are left of them about this hack. The creator of this hack is a digital point moderator. People, including myself, were - are having problems galore with this hack. One person posted his/her complaints on the Ico-content thread in forums.digitalpoint.com and developer asked other mods to delete those negative messages. That'll tell you all. This guy was banned for complainting about Ico-content http://forums.digitalpoint.com/member.php?u=49039 Search for the Ico-content thread and find quoted posts from that guy in that thread. All his Ico-content comments were deleted. Basically they did a moderator gang bang on him. Buddy with power pays favors to buddy with powers "let's go get him boy" tag team. A Myspace - godaddy gang bang to delete a domain myspace didn't like sort of thing.

His "demo" forum is full of unresponded complaints too if they haven't been deleted yet. People were posting on the demo forum about doing chargebacks if he didn't fix the problems and quit ignoring their complaints. Hack maker wants all communication done by email to hide the serious problems this hack has and I mean SERIOUS! No update has been released to address the thousands and thousands of xml errors Ico-content vomits, which of course means no posts and a lot of "0" reply threads in your forum.

Support by email is useless and takes a while to receive. All possible suggestions to get hack posting were useless, even after reinstallation. Hack appears to be stuck searching for the same keywords. Everything is blamed on Yahoo acting up. Ok, hack falls asleep for 45 minutes to address this issue big boy, but then wakes up and it keeps giving xml errors and no posts for a week now. All recommended settings have been tried and nothing works. I'm not the only one having this problem.

Programmer is lazy in my opinion. If you think that you are going to sit back, relax and watch posts come, think again. This thing will make you sweat every post while it works. Just wait untill it stops.

As somebody said, it is a money grab. Will be asking for a refund soon.

I have been running it for a wekk and it went asleep for one day but I have 6000 quality posts and 4500 new members, I do have to admit that the support is VERY slow. If you do need help, you can always ask me.
