We should have a bot that links random images from Derpibooru on command.

@redenchilada obviously avoiding nsfw on here. But we could have an sbn varient that scours only nsfw.

@techdisk derpibooru won't even show nsfw pics unless you have an account and set it to allow them to be visible.
Tuesday, 16-Oct-12 21:19:27 UTC from web-
@toksyuryel A bot choosing randomly wouldn't care, i think...
Tuesday, 16-Oct-12 21:20:34 UTC from web-
@techdisk Even if you click a link to a nsfw image, it won't let you see it unless you have an account and set it to show them. But a bot can easily be made to ignore them. Everything is tagged on derpibooru.

@toksyuryel i was kinda saying that in the first place... the bot would just avoid the nsfw tag, no matter if it couldnt actually link or not.

@toksyuryel You can still click on the image and it'll show it so long as you agree.
Tuesday, 16-Oct-12 21:21:08 UTC from web-
@mrdragon Nope, by default they are entirely hidden, not simply spoilered.
Tuesday, 16-Oct-12 21:22:31 UTC from web-
@toksyuryel So long as you have a direct link then they aren't.
Tuesday, 16-Oct-12 21:23:15 UTC from web-
@mrdragon The bot shouldn't be posting direct links so this isn't a concern. And the bot can easily ignore nsfw images and not post them at all anyway so it's even less of a concern.
Tuesday, 16-Oct-12 21:24:46 UTC from web-
@toksyuryel My idea is that the bot would have a search query used, and it would pick from the most recent ~200 or so of that result
Tuesday, 16-Oct-12 21:26:01 UTC from StatusNet Android-
@redenchilada this could provide oodles of fun!
Tuesday, 16-Oct-12 21:27:53 UTC from web -
@redenchilada You can skip the search query and just set up a watched tags list for it, and have it select from that. Hide any tags you want to exclude from it, and then all the bot needs to do is scrape image links from the /watched page
Tuesday, 16-Oct-12 21:28:07 UTC from web-
@toksyuryel Not even scraping, dude, Derpibooru has an API.
Tuesday, 16-Oct-12 21:28:50 UTC from StatusNet Android-
@redenchilada @techdisk right?

@toksyuryel it would be "called upon" not on a timer. Like: @derpibot search ponies
Tuesday, 16-Oct-12 21:29:08 UTC from web-
@techdisk Same thing! It can choose a random image from the first 200 on its /watched page ^^ or whatever the API equiv is.
Tuesday, 16-Oct-12 21:30:22 UTC from web-
@toksyuryel i guess.

@toksyuryel I think an exclude list filled with every tag that would be inappropriate for RDN, a watch list for "high-quality" images (I'm thinking give staff the ability to alter this list through commands to the bot?) and the capability to give it a search query to use for in specific cases.
Tuesday, 16-Oct-12 21:32:38 UTC from StatusNet Android-
@redenchilada This would be perfect ☺

@mrdragon The timeline still thumbnails the actual image though, which would be a problem

@techdisk Create an account the bot uses that only shows safe images (and maaaaybe suggestive)

@redenchilada No dawg. Then we'd get like, random tiny-headed ponies or some other artist's bizarre fixation.
