hey my friend just taught me the basic crap on VB like timers buttons renaming crap, etc and i was wondering if anyone could tell me where i could start out at on making a chatbot no commands or anything special, just talk.

allthough i believe its in C++. Im sure the VB one (which was on bots`r`us website) might still be lurking around on the web somewhere.

The VB bot with source that used to be on bots'r'us was my TCPClient, properly written for people to learn how to make a bot for bnet in VB.

I still have it on a backup zip.

This isn't completed, but it's a really good start if you can figure out what's going on.

Quotedid they ever change web host's like they had set anyone know?

No. After we lost access to the web site, we stopped updating things. I don't think any of us have backups of the site; I lost it when I installed Windows 2000. The forum (http://boards.gamers.com/messages/overview.asp?name=bnetbots) slowly died off with the web site as well.

Also, the Visual Basic GreetBot has been on the BotDev site for a long time: http://botdev.valhallalegends.com/files/vbgreetbot.zip
