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.

ah the power of a pentium

I installed this, is it possible to slow the bot down from posting as soon as you post? I make a post and as soon as i redirect back to the thread the bastard already posted! LOL, maybe a few min delay?

[Erwin]

There's a post in this thread telling you how to delay the AI's reply. It works.

I hope ANNA bot is way smarter then ALICE

My bot is stupid, and my members would love to have a smarter one

[Erwin]

Unfortunately, ANNA bot is just as dumb. Which is why I won't be releasing her to the public...

Ok so far the installation instructions have been fairly simple! But im struggling here at on spot...Where in dbprefs.php it asks me to show apath to aiml. does it was want me to show a path like www.mysite.com/forums/alice/aiml?

[jris]

sorry for the double post...but here is my problem...ok i ran the sql folder and its now on the database so i then went to run the botloader.php and here is my error of doom!

Loading startup.xml

Warning: fopen("forums/alice/aiml/startup.xml", "r") - No such file or directory in /home/finalfan/public_html/forums/alice/src/admin/botloaderfuncs.php on line 508
could not open XML input

Help me please

[Mijae]

Do you have the AIML files in /alice/aiml?

There should also be a startup.xml file in that folder.

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.

Would there be a way to put in your sites own FAQ's as well. I get so many lamer questions over and over about various PC games and such
