Public Speaker rights in Bots (Bots)
Public Speaker rights in Bots // Bots
Aug 22, 2001, 6:00pm
I am trying to make a bot that will log all of the conversations that happen
in my world. The only problem is every instance of the bot can only "hear"
things that are within 20 degrees of it. Ex. If my bot was at GZ the
farthest convo it could pick up would be at 20N 20W. Is there any way
around this other than creating a bunch of instances and placing them
throughtout the world? I tried giving myself Public Speaker rights and
being the bot owner I thought maybe that would do it but it doesnt seem to
work, Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Bogey

All PS does is if there are over 50 people in a area, the PS will always be
heard as long as its 200 meters within the avatar, as described in the help
files. :)

then 50 people at one time. there is NO WAY you can hear over 20 coords

I don't suppose that there is any way that I could get other people's
whispers either even being caretaker of the world?
Aug 23, 2001, 3:53pm
No.

What about multi-instance bots?

Laws prohibit this feature :-) Not ever AW -should- be allowed to, I think
Telegrams are logged, which is against the regulations too.
In case you were wondering what law, it's called "Invasion of Privacy"

That should work but you need more than 3 bots on your account.

Logging telegrams *can* be enabled, but I don't think it is in the main universe. Even if it is, you are sending information through their servers... of course they're going to be able to read it. You have no reasonable expectation of privacy when it comes to AWC. It is not "illegal" in any way.

True, it is going through their servers, but why should AWC be able to read
what I send to someone else? I consider it Invasion of Privacy myself, but
that's just me. I thought it -was- enabled, thanks for correcting me.

Because if there were over 50 people in an area, like the Cy Awards event for example, you'd be
lagged horribly due to avatar change events and things being sent. But a PS can't hear over 50
people though, the server just broadcasts it to everyone, I don't know what would happen if
everyone had PS, though.

The worlds that I am doing this for are private worlds run in the
Educational Universe that are run on our own servers. People are told that
their convo's will be recorded and their used for research purposes.
(something about group dynamics in virtual world space, im not really
involved in this part) so don't worry no laws are being broken here. :)

Out loud conversations or whispers? I was told by HamFon you can't see whispers without a
cracked world server.

Or a xelagot company working through a xelagot server. See the
City4All page http://www.city4all.com/2000/browser/de/index.html
click on Users Online :)
All xelagots spying for users there communicate with the Central
xelagot using the xelagot server. Each avatar add/delete is sent to
Central, which makes an html page once a minute. The bots don't need
to belong to the same owner to do this

You could make the bot circle around GZ, but you would always be missing the
other side
