ok botting rules (subject to change, but effective immediately)
bots must be clearly labelled as such, and link to the maintainer’s account in the bio or something. in the future, there might be a bot label.
bots may not perform social actions such as: following, liking, reposting
bots may not post individual posts automatically, with the exception of “daily/weekly/monthly x” accounts, which can post a maximum of one post per day at a fixed time.
bots may not reply to posts/comments unless explicitly triggered:
bots must be triggered by @ mentions, or wall comments on the bot account’s wall.
bots should use the wasteof2 api (api.wasteof.money), as the beta api is subject to change and is designed for internal usage
bots should not poll my server too hard, try using the socket.io api to only perform actions once a mention message is received.
to do this, use a server side socket.io client, and listen for updateMessageCount
events. when the count increases, request the unread message list and respond to new mention comments.
it is really cool to see all the unique ways that the api is being used, but let’s try to keep it a little bit controlled. :)
out of my sample size of two, i can confidently say that ebay sellers have scammed me 100% of the time i order stuff
this is strangely poetic. i like it.
poor jeffalo
no new server today
but another attempt shall be made
tomorrow
can i just say, it is so cool how the wasteof community has evolved into a thing that exists..
it is so cool to see people using this site and sharing it with others. thanks everyone!
new wasteof server has been ordered!
it has 128GB of ram and 9TB of raw storage (probably 6TB usable with the correct raid configuration) it’s going to be pretty exciting and a massive upgrade from the old dell optiplex i’m currently using
hey, there’s now a message when someone reposts your posts (this is on both the beta and the production site!)
The wasteof3 beta is now public! You can visit it at https://beta.wasteof.money!
Please note that you will not be able to log in if you aren’t a beta user, you can still interact with other functions of non-user wasteof.
alright guys but
i am once again reminding you that wasteof.money is the 6th greatest website on the whole ‘net.
i am once again reminding you that wicy.cool is the greatest website on the whole ‘net.
i changed the font of the website!
it should still match the “codey”/monospace style, but it’s now a little more sans-serify.
let me know what you think.
