        I was looking for a "bot" plug-in and didn't find one. When I say bot I mean something that answers to peaople automatically. For exmaple when somebody says "hi/hello/whats up" to me then bot automatically answers by saying "hey how are you?" If you know a solution to my problem then please reply to this thread.

Sincerely,

hmm.. i know that messenger discovery has that feature for msn 6.2 .. you can check out their site, to see when they release the new version that is compatible with msn 7.

http://www.messengerdiscovery.com/

Edit: u can check out www.mess.be also (i'm checking on the internet right now though, because that would be a cool plugin)

Edit 2: i found nothing.. maybe you should request a plugin like that

Can you please do that for me?

I'm working on such a plugin.. .. And i've just started it today.. .. So... But don't expect it anytime soon... I've got tons of homework the next couple of days..

I just checked out  "offlinemessenger" and it has a bot talking to me. I wonder if they have  programmed it by them self or they have downloaded it from somewhere?

I remember an ancient project that TheBlasphemer was working on (I think that was back when his alias was DJMystic) that would automatically respond like this, but it would learn in time with new responses you could choose to add when it asked you. I'm not sure if a very unstable Alpha was made, but from looking on the forum (where I remember it being talked about), is gone or buried.

They made it themselves, it's a project...

I'm aswell looking for something like this..
Can't someone make something simple quickly?

Such bots aren't easy nor simple to script or create. Spleak is a good bot for daily talking etcetera, but it doesn't have the feature to set it up and let it talk to your contacts.

I just want it to answer with my Ip..

so if someone sends me:
!whatsyourip
or something like that it send back:
(!IP) and msg plus converts it to my IP..

couldn't you just make 2 text files..
one with the words in it, which the bot should react at.. and in the other one, what the bot should send back..
or isn't that possible?

Or can i modify the Ping-String that i always answer with a Pong and my IP adress?

Where are those strings saved?
