Ah, ok. Point taken. In that case, something like .profile [user] with a link to the appropriate profile would be handy. As for my previously mentioned A/V functions, I didn't have any specific ideas in mind, other than remembering some .cl options for [length of movie] * [bitrate]= [size of file], etc.

from what I remember of #nethack's bot, it could notify you instead of pm-ing, disallowed overly long to-channel commands, and had variants of command for in-channel and "PM/notify" me this information. (Which was a configurable option I think...) Difference between ?? and ?> (to channel) and ?< (to me).

by omission, these are sane features? I don't suppose someone could mention what those happened to be?

I must say that I really love all the hate you guys pile on about .cards/etc. Was it really that bad?
Abuse of .cards was one of the reasons I left IRC.
A hundred years from now, they will gaze upon my work and marvel at my skills but never know my name. And that will be good enough for me.

Well now that it's gone, are you planning to return?

No, because it was one of several reasons. The main ones are personal and have nothing to do with you guys, but .cards helped push it.

I think that .cl .seen .microstorage would be nice. I don't like .cards .dice and all the other not very useful functions. But if they are implemented, it could be only by pm.

How about a timer restricting how often you can use them without getting kicked/banned? Is that feasible?

Apparently that's not the only thing you'd like to murder.

I wonder what's up with that.

Cussing at somebody I can very well understand. But wishing death to a bot for using its service and thus receiving a valuable answer - well, that's new!

Maybe Dr. Sbaitso is the more pressing feature to implement...

LOL, Bisqbot used to respond with witty comebacks whenever you said something. I was curious if it would also message these. Its a bot, so I didn't think I would hurt its feelings. In retrospect, I realize I probably should have said BisqBot, Fuck you, if I wanted a response. Also, cursing at is not the same as wishing death upon :)
Sage advice from a friend of Jim: So put your tinfoil hat back in the closet, open your eyes to the truth, and realize that the government is in fact causing austismal cancer with it's 9/11 fluoride vaccinations of your water supply.

First, I loved this program when I was a kid. Second, I just realized one feature that I miss (that isn't necessarily an IRC function) is the auto-screencapping for various submissions and would kinda like to see it return. I can, however, understand if it doesn't due to reliability, implementation, and storage issues.

I would like to see an alert, via pm perhaps, when you get a pm in the forums.
