RE: Post Promoter JavaScript Voting Bot - Update 4

in #utopian-io7 years ago

Hi @beauknows - no problem, this is all related! It's very difficult for the bot tracker to accurately track things like refunded or invalid bids since all of the bots work a bit differently.

The way I came up with to resolve this was that I created an API spec that bots can implement (and is included out of the box with the post promoter software) that tells the bot tracker site exactly which bids it has accepted in each round.

The problem is that not all bots implement that API, and booster is one of them. One thing I plan to do in the near future is add an indicator on the bot tracker site to show which bots implement the API and which don't. That way users can easily know that the bots with that indicator are always showing 100% accurate information in the tracker, and bots without that indicator could be inaccurate.

As for the blacklist, that option is already available in the post promoter software. Just set the "blacklist" config parameter like so:

"blacklist": ["account1", "account2"]
