Description
I would like a mod that allows bots that you set to roam the forum and post. in the options you can edit names and they also have real profiles.

Permissions
i would like it to be the defult permisson system, like it is a real persons profile.

Feature Set
I would want it to be like a real profile's fetures. and in options you can edit how many of them their are and give them names. also they can be like a staff and understand the rules so they can be trusted to be staff.

please reply if i need more info

Overall this is a very complicated thing to implement. You will also note that bots tend to post dummy replies and easily give away that they are not real persons. This will make you look bad to your real members.
It was requested before, it was never developed (as far as I know)

Blows it away... You can't really expect that this kind of AI is ever implemented, for sure :o

JK, i know it can be a bit difficult but i have seen people do it on websites before, i just wanted to see if it can be done on smf.

well, just about anythign CAN be done -- if you know how to code it (and have the time to do so)

What you have asked for is mostly pointless and basically useless for 99% of the sites out there -- so, quite honestly, I would expect someone to require a payment to develop such a thing for you... (and I would not expect it to be cheap)

It can be done yes, I have a bot myself.

But one thing is to have a clearly defined bot and another one is to pretend that bot to be a real person.

You do realize that bot posts are obvious and that they will, in general, drive real users away, not attract them... Especially if you are trying to have bots making "real looking" posts...

The same, btw, goes for that silly "fake users online" mod...
