Our own self posting spam bot?
A while ago I requested a hack that would post a quote of the day, or a tip of the day - https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=78116
now as I think about it more, it would be great to have this done as our own custom posting spam bot - you could have a list of possible posts in the spambot's database, and each day (or week or whatever time period is specified), it would auto post a random thread to a specified forum. This would be GREAT for new boards starting up, that don't have a lot of members or posts yet. Spam bot could get out there and keep things active! For example: If you had a forum about video games, you could get your spam bot hack set to post in a specified forum each day, with a random post from it's database. for example, day 1 it could post "What's your favorite video game?" day 2 it could post "What was the first video game you ever played?" day 3 it could post "If you were on a desert island with satellite broadband and an alienware laptop with endless batteries, would you want Warcraft or Counter-Strike with you?" And so on. the possibilities are endless, especially if it could be configured to have: A spambot for each forum Settings to indicate how often it should post a large pool of random questions to pick from, that you input in the admincp. Each forums/spambot would have it's own pool of questions, so they could be topic-specific This would be a great way for slow forums to get topics and questions auto-generated. This could help them pick up members and keep the existing members active. It coudl also be used in forums that have self-help or educational programs, to get a 'lesson' auto-posted each day. Haven't we all said (sigh) "If only spammers could use their brains for good instead of evil?" (lol) well, this would be good! |
