I just finished up an intro to java class and I've been trying to think of a project to start. I used to be into bots and warring and shit way back in the day and I think it would be cool to write a simple chat bot (one that logs on using just the b.net chat thing, not emulating a game). Could someone point me in the right direction for where I could learn about writing a simple chat bot (preferibly in java).
The chat protocol is no longer supported on Battle.net. It's game emulation or bust!
shit, i didnt know that. I havent actually connected to b.net for over a year.

Really? When/Why did that happen?
It happened roughly 3 and a half months ago because the Chat network was completely useless (to Blizzard).
