TomBot v1.1 vB AI User Bot

Hi after reading the forums i have seen many people after a hack like this so here it is.

This has been installed and testing on a busy live server and it worked fine thats why im posting it in here right away.

I can not hack that much if theres a prob but i try my best to, i also add this is my first time so i have tryed my very best to make the install file easy to follow.

all the files you need are in the zip file just unzip it to your pc keeping the lay out how it is in the zip file and then following the install text file.

What does this hack do?

Basicy it add's a chat bot to a forum on your board that will reply to users posts.

if you wish the bot not to reply to a post inside of the forum its set up to reply in just add ### anywhere in your post and it will stop the bot from replying.

You may give the bot its own profile on the board eg av and sign to make it fit in abit better.

The bot will also learn things has it gets used more but if it gets to a point where it trys taking over the wrold please dont sue me.

I would say that is a safe assumption
If your "Browse" link is not active in the bot table, there is definately something wrong.

I have the same exact problem...After reading the ENTIRE thread, no one has a solution?? C'mon, I want my Bot too you know, a few of us do LOL

EDIT: I'm using 2.2.6, c'mon, no one has a successful install yet?? Guess when I'm the first, I'll post so...Not a WHOLE lot of difference between versions, there is, but I think with the very MINOR PHP additions this hack asks you to edit in, I don't forsee there being a problem, with mine, I assume this is a Database issue...

EDIT #2!!! Nevermind, works perfectly!!!

Only problem is for some reason, it didn't reply to a New Thread, but I'll iron it out That means a SUCCESSFUL 2.2.6 INSTALLATION

You need to run botloader.php - read through the thread to find solutions if you already have.

Okay, so what did you do to fix the "bot" table problem? Does it populate itself after the bot's first post, or is there something else I have to do (pleeeeease don't say fresh install )?

My BOT table is empty and mu bot is working.

Hi,
I have read these are made to 300,000 queries in the database?
Wouldn't this know the database to flood and how much MB does this take in the database?

Your database will grow with about 16 MB.

Can the bot be set to just 1 forum ?
Can the bot be set to just follow 1 thread ?
Can the bot be set to just follow 1 category ? (and therefor all forums + subforums within that category ?
Can the bot be set to NOT reply to certain users ?
Can the bot be set to NOT have the same awnser twice or more in the same thread ?
Can the bot be set to NOT reply more then X times in a thread ? (so after 5 posts or so, it will not reply no more to prevent big useless threads) ?

And you expect us to answer your questions if you haven't read the thread? aranoid: Just kidding.

Can the bot be set to just 1 forum ?
Yes, and in fact, it only replies to one forum by default.

Can the bot be set to just follow 1 thread ?
Yes. (not a setting, but easily hackable)

Can the bot be set to just follow 1 category ? (and therefor all forums + subforums within that category ?
The bot will only reply to posts in one forum (setting in tomstalkerbot.php)

Can the bot be set to NOT reply to certain users ?
Yes. (not a setting, but easily hackable)

Nothing is impossible, but it sounds hard to do.

Yes. (not a setting, but easily hackable)

Let me know if you install this and need help customising it for your needs.
