Bring back botnet chat :\

I run my WebBot off of a different computer, which I rarely touch.  It'd be nice if, instead of just saying "There's a new version", if it could download, update, restart, connect, and return to it's system tray home and add a line to something like "updates.log" about "Updated from version X to version Y on ABC".

I'd very much like to see autoconnect and autotray, but IIRC these were suggested already.

I don't think WebBot ever allowed you to chat on Botnet...

That's possible, but not worth the effort since most updates aren't very urgent, and users can just download them manually if they want the new changes.  Interesting idea though.

Yes, "auto-connect" has been suggested, not "auto-tray" though.  I'll add option for that.

Anyways, this is kind of off-topic from what the thread is supposed to be about.  Splitting...

But once upon a time botnet had chat.  I just meant reenable it on the server, not necessarily on WebBot.

You could always chat on Botnet.  A couple years ago a rule was made that you need to be logged on to a database to chat though.

There's a database called MiniCouncil that is available to the public for chatting.  Ask around for the password.

I don't think Spht want's it publicly posted, so I PM'd it to both of you.

I never posted the password because I don't know it off-hand and have no easy way of getting it.

So can it be posted by someone and stickied somewhere (IE: the "About BotNet" thread?)

Probably.  But like I said, I don't know the password.
