Dear Developers,
I'm currently putting together a Bot class for the 2003 AWCamp (dates to be
announced) http://www.awcommunity.org/awcamp/index.html and need some
information/help that will be documented for AWHS to preserve the history of
the bots. What I need is Bot names, features, urls, contacts, and anything
that would be useful to have on record since some of the history here got
zapped lol.

The class will be for kids so we have to figure not to have too much
overkill on the information but is good to have the resources if needed.

The class will be a introduction to bots which will include history and
applications then go into actually having the kids use it. It's hard to pick
out a bot to use for this class so what I did was pick out a bot that has
most of the common features, the Xelagot X1. I have preserved some of the
documentation of some bots already and need more input.

Thank You Very Much,

Weebo

We need some teachers there too and would be nice to have some of the best
to help teach this or be there for support...as we know kids can be fun when
they get bots lol. I was only planning to do a introduction. Hopefully, we
can do another masterpiece of information.

Another note...kids will ask things like
"Why was a particular bot developed"
"What inspired this person to make this bot"
"What can this bot do"
"How can I make my own too"
etc...lol adults ask those things too

*Chuckles at How can I make my own too*

They will all have downloaded a pirated version of VB the day before and
have got the VBSDK and demand to know how to make bots :P

[View Quote] Why must you encourage piracy? C++ is free, many compilers available
free, SDK is designed on it as well. No waiting for it to be out of
beta to use it either. I am boggled as to why you said that.

Whats wrong with pirated copies? As long as you or nobody else touches or
uses your pirate copy then theres no harm done :-D

Did I mention if you follow my last post then its a waste of bandwidth to
download a pirated copy of anything?
