New server rule in regards to bots
http://www.metalforge.net/rules/index.html#bots
To summarize:
Bots
* All bots must use the bot flag
* Details: http://mailman.metalforge.org/pipermail ... 10467.html
Why?
* This keeps the bot from inflating the player count on the metaserver list
* The bot will show up in the 'who listing as a bot (BOT) and will also have the bot tag ([BOT])
Any abuse or exploits of bots will not be tolerated
* To name a few instances - this can range from using a bot for channel spamming, player harassment (DM's discretion), server crashing, and/or purposely crashing exiting bots
The only officially sanctioned server bot is Seer
* Seer the Oracle [Server Bot] ('tell Seer help) [BOT]
* All other bots are run by players or are performing other functions
