In order to request a bot, you must agree to our bot policies:
1) Your nickname must be registered.
2) The channel must be registered.
3) Must be founder to request a bot.
- a) You must state the founder nickname.
- b) You must email us from the same email you used on the registration page of the founder's nickname.
4) Channel must be at least a week (7 days) old.
5) With our current resources, we can only permit 1 bot per user per room.
6) You should not have a past/current history of spamming, flooding, and/or other network-policy-breaking activities.
7) Please do NOT kick/flood/abuse the bot, if it fails to work as expected, please contact me with a description of the problem and what may have caused it. Since the bot is still in beta testing stage, DO expect problems and (some) downtime. If you do not abide by this, the bot may be withdrawn.

Currently the bot has the following features:
* Flood kick
* Swear kick
* Modelock
* A couple of other features that will only be offered upon special requests

If you want flood kick, you need to tell me how many lines in how many seconds should constitute a flood.

If you want swear kick, there are 2 options:
Option 1: The swear kick will only kick, but will never ban.
Option 2: The swear kick is more flexible, however it will kick after the first offense, then ban after the second offense. You may define your own set of swear words. And the bot will not kick operators and voiced users.
So please make sure that you include the appropriate option in the email. (The default option is option 1)

If you want modelock, you need to tell tell me the modes you would like locked (not all modes can be locked). For a list of all available cmodes, you may view '/hs cmode', currently the only modelock option for the bot would be +k, since the others can either be locked via ChanServ or cannot be modelocked at all.

There are currently 5 bots to pick from - aquamarine, MasterBot, Jasper, TheGuardian and Dijkstra.

Now keep in mind that...
Flood kick and swear kick will affect everyone, including you. (unless you pick option 2 for swear kick)
If you chose modelock, a mode that are locked cannot be unset. When you need any settings changed, you will need to email me and I will change it asap.
Since the bot program is currently in beta testing stage, we can only offer one bot per requester per room.

And there is a mailing list that you need to subscribe to as a bot user.
