Anyone interested in a FAQ bot? The bot would only reply to questions you have taught it and would therefore not clutter your board with weird responses.

. The bot would/could be used board wide, and could come very useful if you have people just signing up to request downloads and whatnot.

It wouldn't need to be a FAQ bot either, as you could teach it anything and it would only reply if it it recognized the input, and to some extent you could fool your members into it being a real person

.

I have modified tomstalkerbot.php from the TomBot v1.1 release to do just this, so if there's interest and if I have permission from C.Birch, I'll release it.

If there's interest, I'll bundle it with vBTeachbot, which I've found to be ideal for adding questions and answers to the FAQ bot. I've installed a FAQ bot on my local test board, and it does what it's supposed to.
