  1. @#Staff So, what are we doing about @welcomepony?

    1. @minti I thought @redenchilada had it working again.

      Monday, 11-Mar-13 13:53:42 UTC from web
      1. @colfax He would need the source for that, and I'm the only one who had it. (It's gone now cause I'm stupid.)

        Monday, 11-Mar-13 13:54:37 UTC from web
        1. @minti Oh hell, what did you do now?

          Monday, 11-Mar-13 13:55:35 UTC from web
          1. @colfax I lost the SSH key for my Ec2 instance, and ended the instance before they started charging me out the butt cause free-tier ended. So I lost the source and all the data it had collected. So someone is going to need to remake it.

            1. @minti Ouch...

              Monday, 11-Mar-13 13:57:45 UTC from web
              1. @colfax Yeah. It's partially my fault cause I was still mad over the Nerthos crap but uh. If no one has better ideas I could re-code it. It's not exactly something that's hard to make, I'd just need a place to host it. xD

                Monday, 11-Mar-13 13:58:57 UTC from web
                1. @minti I've said multiple times I can host it on my server; how memory intensive is it?

                  Monday, 11-Mar-13 13:59:54 UTC from web
                  1. @zeldatra This is the first time I've heard this. Not very. The main issue is that it'll be fetching the public timeline of RDN every 30 seconds 24/7 xD

                    Monday, 11-Mar-13 14:00:50 UTC from web
                    1. @minti Doesn't sound TOO bad...

                      Monday, 11-Mar-13 14:02:21 UTC from web
                      1. @zeldatra Before anything though, I'll probably ask @nlghtmaremoon if I can host it on Pinkie. Cause his server is OP and then I can do ****tons of statistics logging. xD

                        Monday, 11-Mar-13 14:03:10 UTC from web
                        1. @minti .. is Twitch still @purple? Or are they @twitch now..

                          Monday, 11-Mar-13 14:03:56 UTC from web
                          1. @minti Oh hey he is @twitch now. Neat.

                            Monday, 11-Mar-13 14:04:25 UTC from web
                2. @minti Wish I could help with that, but as it is I'm borrowing money to keep the lights on here.

                  Monday, 11-Mar-13 14:03:53 UTC from web
                  1. @colfax Oh, jeez. And this is one more reason why I should stop spending on myself so much. :X Though I did at least donate once.

                    Monday, 11-Mar-13 14:05:29 UTC from api
                    1. @neurario I haven't been able to donate even once, so you're one up one me there.

                      Monday, 11-Mar-13 14:08:51 UTC from web
                      1. @colfax But I thought you just said...

                        Monday, 11-Mar-13 14:09:16 UTC from api
                        1. @neurario I'm talking about the lights where I live, not the site.

                          Monday, 11-Mar-13 14:10:25 UTC from web
                          1. @colfax Oh. Derp. Yeah, I misinterpreted.

                            Monday, 11-Mar-13 14:11:25 UTC from api
                  2. @colfax Heh it's fine, I have quite a few options at hand already I think so I should be good. Also bleh, been there, done that. :x

                    Monday, 11-Mar-13 14:06:12 UTC from web
    2. @widget Connecting it to meteor would be possible, but I think that would be a lot more complicated than just polling every so often. As far as making it a plugin I honestly don't know.

      Monday, 11-Mar-13 14:05:15 UTC from web
    3. @widget Yeah, that would work. I wouldn't be able to add source and stuff though, which kinda makes me sad xD

      Monday, 11-Mar-13 14:08:37 UTC from web
    4. @minti I didn't quite realize it was up for discussion...

      Monday, 11-Mar-13 14:11:06 UTC from MuSTArDroid
      1. @scribus It wasn't. I'm bringing it up for discussion. :p

        Monday, 11-Mar-13 14:11:36 UTC from web
        1. @minti Ah. Well, then, um... I vote we keep her. (How's that?)

          Monday, 11-Mar-13 15:40:49 UTC from MuSTArDroid
    5. @widget By "source and stuff" I'm talking about all the little other features people use to play with.

      Monday, 11-Mar-13 17:34:19 UTC from web
      1. @minti onStartNoticeSave passes the notice being sent as an argument. You can parse that for commands

        Monday, 11-Mar-13 17:36:31 UTC from web
    6. @widget Easy: Unnecessary strain upon the server. :p

      Monday, 11-Mar-13 17:36:23 UTC from web
    7. @widget Which has less of an impact than an entire on-site db-crawl every time someone asks how many notices they posted today.

      Monday, 11-Mar-13 17:38:44 UTC from web
      1. @minti @widget Also I was wrong, I upped it to 60 seconds awhile ago. xD

        Monday, 11-Mar-13 17:39:04 UTC from web
      2. @minti I thought you removed that...?

        Monday, 11-Mar-13 17:39:25 UTC from web
        1. @redenchilada I removed the gui, and by removed I mean started a recode and forgot to finish it. The stats were still there. xD If you guys want a basic thing that welcomes new users then a plugin is the obvious choice, but for what I was doing with it an external bot is prefered.

          Monday, 11-Mar-13 17:41:03 UTC from web
    8. @widget Shh. xD

      Monday, 11-Mar-13 17:41:39 UTC from web
    9. @widget I guess.

      Monday, 11-Mar-13 17:43:48 UTC from web
    10. @widget Yeah it makes sense. It's just bluh bluh PHP and bluh bluh I won't be the one in charge of the bot anymore. :p

      Monday, 11-Mar-13 17:50:09 UTC from web
    11. @widget Lol before I was doing everything either from a separate PHP GUI or by directly manipulating MySQL.

      Monday, 11-Mar-13 17:56:25 UTC from web
    12. @widget Yeah, the PHP one was a mess. I was going to rewrite it as a node app.

      Monday, 11-Mar-13 17:56:51 UTC from web
    13. @widget Cause it's build for command line usage, and for IO unlike PHP.

      Monday, 11-Mar-13 17:59:16 UTC from web
    14. @minti You mean you didn't keep a copy of your code on your HDD?

      Monday, 11-Mar-13 20:34:11 UTC from web
      1. @nerthos Nope.

        Monday, 11-Mar-13 20:36:33 UTC from web
        1. @minti God minti. As pon pon would say, get your s*** together.
