New idea! Gtalk :D Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 14:20, 18 June 2007 (CDT)

A "Welcome Bot"

I was looking around, and I found this: http://botwiki.sno.cc/wiki/Python:Welcome.py Should we create? Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 07:08, 13 June 2007 (CDT)

While I'm usually all about saving time, it seems to me that there's some value to a personal greeting. When someone went to thank the bot for their welcome, the feeling of camaraderie may be... reduced. --Steelviper 08:36, 13 June 2007 (CDT)

A welcome bot doesn't seem very useful for me: we usually manage to welcome new users quite fast (sometimes even within 5 minutes of registration). The upside of the welcome bot is that it can automatically block disallowed usernames, which is quite useful. --Catrope^{(Talk to me or e-mail me)} 09:55, 13 June 2007 (CDT)

I'm going to echo SV's statement here: I feel that users should be proactive in welcoming users, since it's an "icebreaker" of sorts. Also, we don't have a problem with welcoming users; as Catrope indicated, we welcome users fairly quickly, which is nothing short of awesome, in my book. -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate - Sanctuary Wiki — New} 16:13, 13 June 2007 (CDT)

Ditto. I'm happy how the process has matured over the years when I got into the swing of doing them...it's nice and personal, unlike a Cylon. :) --Spencerian 16:35, 13 June 2007 (CDT)

Aye. You mentioned it once... Just wanted you to know :) Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 07:22, 14 June 2007 (CDT)

You should..

Restore all your old chats and have the bot archive'em. :D Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 21:35, 16 June 2007 (CDT)

Should I do them as subpages or merely copy and paste all of them into my talk page? -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate - Sanctuary Wiki — New} 21:41, 16 June 2007 (CDT)

Copy them in order on this page and the bot will do it automatically. Sub-pages would be bad. :) Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 21:52, 16 June 2007 (CDT)

That figures. LOL -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate - Sanctuary Wiki — New} 21:54, 16 June 2007 (CDT)

Fire the "laser", Dr. Evil. :-) -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate - Sanctuary Wiki — New} 22:01, 16 June 2007 (CDT)

Fire the "laser" is now working on your talk page. Lower case "k" is different from upper-case "K". 6 archives created. :) Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 12:33, 17 June 2007 (CDT)

Heh. Go figure. Thanks Shane! -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate - Sanctuary Wiki — New} 22:47, 17 June 2007 (CDT)

The bot author was trying to figure out also why 146 archives were in the queue to be made. It was so crazy, I was going to flip out. lol. But in the end, simple error is to blame. :D Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 22:58, 17 June 2007 (CDT)
