#vulgar and #zork

hello guys and gals
instead of modding, i have wasted my time programming a lobby bot. it currently does two things in two channels:
in #vulgar, it mutes you if you don't curse! every message, you need to curse or you'll get muted for a minute. whenever you're fed up, mad, sick and tired of someone, come over to #vulgar and insult anybody and anything. it's fun! but beware, the channel has some quirks, be sure to type !help before typing.
in #zork, you can play text adventures through the TASclient. this is still in beta, so don't expect too much, but right now we're playing Zork I: The Great Underground Empire, and having a great time. Come join us!
I cant promise the bot will be on all the time, because it's running off of my own PC. but mostly it will be, so come and enjoy!
request features for lobby bots here as well. I'm planning a hitchhikers guide to the galaxy text adventure chan too, what else do you want?
edit: now were playing hitchhikers guide :D

Douglas Adams is (was) T_T a legend!
The hitchhiker books are top notch - if i ever have to pick a number, it's always 42 ^^

the underground adventure is so damn frustrating. I swear its not actually possible to find and kill that bird

actually, no, i don't think it is... you're supposed to go underground and kill the troll!
anyway, my bot got banned

.in #vulgar i had this feature !annoy [username], where the bot would post an insult whenever that person said something. now tombom, for some reason, set !annoy on his tombombot, which then started to spam messages as fast as it could. so my bot did the same, and got banned...
well, i turned off the !annoy feature (although it was kinda fun), so this won't happen again.
could my bot be unbanned please? playing zork with other springers is fun

I asked in IRC and got unbanned, try the same. I asked for you.

hehe, bot wars.
Just like stross predicted
soon, we will have bots that perform complex linguistic analysis, and then they'll REALLY be able to insult yo.

I'd change my study field to computational linguistics if i could make that my master thesis.
edit:unbanned and back. Now running "The Leather Goddesses of Phobos", a "a racy space-age spoof". It's great fun :)

in case you still don't realize how awesome #zork is, just listen to [TF]Fox tell 1337[LordSpawn], who had been gone for a while, what exciting things happened in the meantime!
[20:52:07] <[TF]Fox> we traded our now-useless flashlight
[20:52:10] <[TF]Fox> for a strang machine
[20:52:14] <[TF]Fox> known as a T-remover
[20:52:23] <pirate_sandwich> and boom shakalaka
[20:52:23] <[TF]Fox> It removes T from a word that starts w/ T
[20:52:31] <[TF]Fox> What happens when we put tray into t-remover?
[20:52:32] <[TF]Fox> we get Ray!
[20:52:34] <[TF]Fox> That's what boirunner did
[20:52:40] <[TF]Fox> But we can't use it yet apparently
[20:52:46] <[TF]Fox> anyway, we nicely knocked on the door
[20:52:49] <[TF]Fox> and a german mad scientist
[20:52:51] <[TF]Fox> greeted us
[20:52:54] <[TF]Fox> pulled us in
[20:52:54] <1337[LordSpawn]> so why couldnt we just take out the t anyway?
[20:52:56] <[TF]Fox> and closed the door
[20:53:48] <[TF]Fox> anyway
[20:53:54] <[TF]Fox> the scientist
[20:53:57] <[TF]Fox> put us in the house
[20:54:00] <[TF]Fox> did a bizarre experiment
[20:54:03] <[TF]Fox> that puts us in bodies of gorilla
[20:54:05] <[TF]Fox> you in male gorilla
[20:54:09] <[TF]Fox> and trent is female gorilla
[20:54:12] <[TF]Fox> he expected us to have sex.
[20:54:14] <[TF]Fox> but we didn't
[20:54:19] <pirate_sandwich> i wanted to :/
[20:54:21] <[TF]Fox> Anyways
[20:54:21] <1337[LordSpawn]> lol fucked up shit yall
[20:54:27] <[TF]Fox> we put the chocolate
[20:54:28] <[TF]Fox> inside the cage
[20:54:31] <[TF]Fox> in case we get hungry
[20:54:33] <[TF]Fox> and apparently
[20:54:35] <[TF]Fox> the chocolate
[20:54:37] <[TF]Fox> is like spinach
[20:54:41] <[TF]Fox> SUPAR MAN STRENGTH
[20:54:46] <[TF]Fox> we bended the bars after scientist GTFO'd
[20:54:53] <[TF]Fox> and got back into our own bodies
[20:54:54] <[TF]Fox> went inside circle
[20:55:01] <[TF]Fox> Got warped to ruins?
[20:55:05] <[TF]Fox> and we entered
[20:55:07] <pirate_sandwich> yeah
[20:55:08] <[TF]Fox> said hi to king mitre
[20:55:10] <[TF]Fox> and he told us to gtfo
[20:55:13] <[TF]Fox> cos he's too unhappy to speak
[20:55:14] <1337[LordSpawn]> lol
[20:55:14] <[TF]Fox> we got ut
[20:55:16] <[TF]Fox> got out
[20:55:21] <[TF]Fox> went into a desert
[20:55:24] <[TF]Fox> then went into an oasis
[20:55:26] <[TF]Fox> we saw a frog
[20:55:31] <[TF]Fox> boi tried to kiss the frog
[20:55:34] <[TF]Fox> but failed
[20:55:42] <[TF]Fox> He closed his eyes
[20:55:44] <[TF]Fox> tried to kiss again
[20:55:45] <[TF]Fox> but
[20:55:46] <[TF]Fox> the stench
[20:55:48] <[TF]Fox> stopped him
[20:55:51] <[TF]Fox> so we gtfo'd
[20:55:59] <[TF]Fox> then we entered the "martian dessert":
[20:56:07] <[TF]Fox> saw a cuddly white rabbit
[20:56:09] <pirate_sandwich> and thats not a type
[20:56:14] <pirate_sandwich> it really is a dessert
[20:56:16] <[TF]Fox> that is like, totally ordinairy yo
[20:56:17] <pirate_sandwich> cakes and pies!
[20:56:22] <[TF]Fox> and
[20:56:24] <[TF]Fox> we saw a circle
[20:56:28] <[TF]Fox> but the circle was going white
[20:56:30] <1337[LordSpawn]> anyone tried to rape the rabbit?
[20:56:32] <[TF]Fox> and we had a can of BLACK stain
[20:56:34] <[TF]Fox> oh please
[20:56:36] <[TF]Fox> zoophilia
[20:56:37] <[TF]Fox> eww
[20:56:41] <1337[LordSpawn]> lol
[20:56:47] <[TF]Fox> anyway
[20:56:50] <1337[LordSpawn]> its called beastiality
[20:56:51] <[TF]Fox> we used the black stain
[20:56:56] <[TF]Fox> Also known as zoophilia
[20:57:00] <[LCC]Saktoth> Its called AN FURRY
[20:57:03] <[TF]Fox> two sides for one coin
[20:57:06] <[TF]Fox> anyway
[20:57:09] <[TF]Fox> we used black stian
[20:57:11] <[TF]Fox> to paint circle
[20:57:12] <[TF]Fox> and voila
[20:57:14] <[TF]Fox> it became a warp circle
[20:57:16] <[TF]Fox> and now, here we are
[20:57:18] <[TF]Fox> !look
[20:57:18] <zork> | >Cleveland
[20:57:18] <zork> | You suddenly find yourself longing for the slime pits of Venus
[20:57:18] <zork> | or the sandstorms of Mars. This particular section of Cleveland
[20:57:18] <zork> | has exits to the northeast and south.
[20:57:19] <zork> | Trent is here, alertly surveying your surroundings.
[20:57:19] <zork> |
