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.

How do I undo the SQL commands that I ran from db.sql? I'm encountering problems with safemode and it's becoming to much of a pain to work with.

There's also the much faster method of str_replace('<br />' , '', $string );

He wont answer anything but smilies. I used ManagerJosh's technique to upload the files because I have PHP in safe mode.

Also, all files did upload except the D.aiml and I have 34449 entries, not 41125.

Help me? :P

I get this at the end of running botloader.php. What did I do wrong?

Could anyone help me out? PM me please.

[CeleronXL]

No, don't PM him, answer here... I have the same problem. It'll only answer VERY few posts, all others will be smilie spam. I did the same thing as v0id for uploading too. I thought it had worked too...

[JBMoney]

Help? I got this reply from the bot.

What do you do in your spare time?
:baaa:

[JBMoney]

Fixed. Appears to be working.

[Erwin]

The bot is working fine on my site - there are over 3,600 posts in his forum in under 20 hours, and he's made half of them already.

The only problem: server load - I get 200-300 concurrent users online, and this bot is sucking up my server load like crazy... it's at least doubled, and at times quadrupled! Hopefully the novelty will die down soon.

[Radgam]

For anyone who has been having any of these problems with the bots output:
[list=1][*]A large amount of tabs in the middle of a sentence[*]A full stop or question mark being beside more text (although there should be a space)[*]<br>s in the text[/list=1]

Do the following:

Find:
$ttb_time = time() + rand(1,5);

After that line add:
	
// Clean Output
$response = str_replace('<br>' , '', $response );
$response = str_replace('</br>' , '', $response );
$response = str_replace(', .' , '.', $response );
$response = preg_replace("/(\?|\.|!)(\w)/","$1 $2",$response);
$response = preg_replace("/(\w|,)\s+(\w|\?|\.|!)/","$1 $2",$response);
$response = preg_replace("/\n\s+/","\n",$response);

Hope this helps Thanks to fury for info on removing the <br>s & just to mention, the search to remove </br> was intentional as i have noticed it in the output from time to time.

Edit
I made a mistake in the original coding so please update to the above ASAP if you have used it Thanks to JBMoney for reporting the problem.
