Awhile back someone said they made a bot just like the Bird Bot (at the
imabot web page), but they said the bot avoids objects to make it look more
realistic. I woulda payed more attention but I had to go, now I can't find
where to get it!

If you do not want to pay that it is fine , Many Many others have and will
continue too. Programming is time consumming and it is not free. I am a business
man and have to make a living somehow. If you do not want the bot do not buy it.
The bot sells to many others including universe owners. You are missing out on
what is developing to be the most interesting bot I have seen in a while with
new features being added to it all the time. I am sorry you do not feel that a
programmers work is not worth anything more than a few dollars.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Most run on tight budgets, as RWX worlds
are a hobby.

I bought the nodebot. And I am a programmer, so it is not like I could not find the
time myself. I was curious as to the new approach.
What is MY time worth? $25.00 an hour or so says the IRS....

So anyway, JKMT fully taught me to use it, ran the plotting for me in my world, (in
another universe even, after major modifications for free) and I made a good friend
to boot. And this took HOURS for them, not a few minutes.
While the product is fully worth $31.00, making the new friend was worth a ton
more.......

I'd pay if I really wanted it, but not that much, it's more expensive that
AW itself, lol. What about Ima Genius, Faber and Xelag and Canopus's free
bots, though...

As I said before this time cost money. If they are offering there stuff for
free then get theres.

I am not gona lower the price any :o/ It sells . I am sorry I could not help
you but maybe in the future we will have something you will desire enough to
pay what the programmer deserves

jkmt, don't bother responding to these idiots. These are the same folks
who would use shareware and not pay for it, or, would download a
program, then do find a hack for it in order not to have to pay a couple
of bucks.

Hello

Time cost money for all us and JKMT and other building support for AW,
that's a very small price for it. If you figure all the hours in programming
it and more.... At least he spreads the cost of development out over many
sales not trying to get his money back at the first buyer...
If you don't like the cost you should set down and try to develop one
after you try a day or two you will see and might change your mind about
outside support.. Also with paid support most of them will give you updates
as they find them. You in turn will have to spend more time trying to figure
out where you did the error in the program spending more of your time....

I program to but sometimes cheaper to get outside support than spend the
time developing...
When your plate to full to do any more projects.

md commander, I sure hope you just posted to the wrong thread by
accident. If not, I would suggest you reread my response to jkmt. I
support the efforts that programmers make by paying for what I use.

One person doesn't want to by something and that makes them an idiot? Odd...

No but bitching about the price that other programmers place on their
products does.
