  1. === SALEM'S TWITTER BOT FAQ ===
  2.  
  3. > Who are you?
  4. The feral catboy your parents warned you about.
  5. Twitter: https://twitter.com/wastelandfeline
  6. Tumblr: https://felinewasteland.tumblr.com
  7.  
  8. > What bots do you run?
  9. My current active bots are Homestuck Quote Bot and Devilman Discourse Generator.
  10.  
  11. > How do they work?
  12. Randomly selecting strings of text to post in a certain order based on spreadsheet input.
  13.  
  14. > Why does it keep posting the same thing? / Will you post X?
  15. See above. I don't choose what quotes it posts when; it's random.
  16.  
  17. > I noticed a typo / other mistake.
  18. Please let me know! Though I program bots, I am not one myself.
  19.  
  20. > I have a suggestion for the discourse generator.
  21. DM me!
  22.  
  23. > Will you make a bot for X fandom?
  24. Maybe, if I get into it enough and the right inspiration strikes me.
  25.  
  26. > Will you ever revive a dead bot?
  27. Again, maybe. I'm a pretty busy guy and this is just a hobby.
  28.  
  29. > Can the bot interact with people / other bots?
  30. No, all replies / follows / messages / etc. are done by me. The only thing the bot itself does is post.
  31.  
  32. Though, I do check their notifications periodically.
  33.  
  34. > Why do the shitpost bots use "they" pronouns for every character?
  35. Because adding in a gender variable is too much of a hassle.
  36.  
  37. > Me me?
  38. Big boy.
