Why not automate it? Shouldn't be that hard to connect to the database and look for posts in that forum containing a certain text.

Automated registration defeats the whole purpose of having a registration process.

We could easily allow everyone to have their own web channel feed without needing to go through the registration process (/bnw $4 set * B), but that would open it up to exploitation--we don't want 1000 autobots spamming the WebChannel service all day.  Human-monitored registration is necessary to avoid these type of problems.

I'm willing to do it, but what I'm wondering is how you are going to choose someone.  The reason being that just about everyone meets those specifications.
I'm awake in the infinite cold.

Not entirely true. The reason for registration based services is so administrators can control users. With anonymous access, it is difficult to control particular users.

It shouldn't be that hard to develop huristics to manage an automated process. If you're really worried about someone creating some program to auto post to this forum then you can use some sort of CAPTCHA to discern between humans and computers.

I'll pick the person who's most active.  Having a really good idea about how botnet operates would be a plus.

I wasn't generalizing.  The purpose for OUR registration process is to greatly reduce such problems as I described.  FWIW, there's no such thing as "anonymous access" on botnet.  Everyone requires an unique account for any botnet services to pay attention to them.

In the 2 years that we've been registering accounts over the forum, we have not had any problems with webchannel abuse, and it required no extra programming to do it this way.

I'm looking for a new registrar because I have been very inactive in the past few months, and will be more inactive in the coming months after the holidays.

I know how BotNet works! I'm active!
It would give me something todo while browsing forums :)

I know you've already selected Warrior, but if you're looking for another person, I'll accept.

I'm pretty used to how BotNet works (I contact you sometimes over it, yay!). In fact, Warrior was using BotNet Broadcasts to talk to me, instead of BotNet database broadcasts. Silly war.

Too bad Warrior can't broadcast over the entire Botnet, only the database.

Then what's the difference between /bnc and /bnd? If one broadcasts the the entire database what does the other one do? Additionally you were using them first. Silly joe.
