Bot: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 09:25, 11 January 2005

A bot is a program that handles something a human might normally do.

P is the NetGamers channel service and a bot. As is Pea.
Many alliances run relay bots, such as 1up's Mario, NewDawn's [NADS] or VGN's |VGN|. These bots are used to report incoming on alliance planets.
A bot can be made to control one's planet (optionally planets). This against the rules, but has happened at various times. MrJ made jedibot for Section in round 3. Killmark had huge bot armies in round 6 and 7. LDK were accused of using bots since every round after their excellent round 4 performance.
