stocks script

[Dhuul]

I've had no luck with the ones posted on the boards, and I've noticed that they seem to take a rather complex route to answering the questions when you get unlimited guesses. Attached is my crude stocks script.

It only supports the stocks currently, because that's where I was when I wrote it, but the jail shouldn't be too hard to add.

Oh my effing God that is such a stupid fucking approach, and the people I see doing it are complete assholes for having no respect for others. I don't want to see you scrolling because you want to use a script instead of typing and you don't want to even use a good script. You know who else uses something like this? Caladari. You know who's in the stocks constantly? Caladari. It's so fucking annoying having to deal with you people. I hope you also realize that this is an *excellent* way to get a GM on your ass for:

1. Scripting
2. Scrolling

and they will be watching you from the first time you get checked up on.

i'd hate to annoy the people throwing fruit at me :(

thanks for the reality check

[Bobmuhthol]

1. Shut the fuck up.
2. You also annoy the GMs, who should tell you to stop using a stupid, disruptive script.

I wasn't AFK the one time I used it nor would I recommend being AFK to anyone using it

[Bobmuhthol]

The GMs don't know if you're AFK. They do know that you're scripting. It's better for them if you are AFK, but that doesn't affect how poor the script is.

[Dhuul]

who the hell cares, people can use it at their own risk

[Bobmuhthol]

You're right, they can. And I can tell the same people not to trust you for a good script.

Here is a much better method that is nowhere near as annoying:

put answer %1
pause
put answer %2
pause
put answer %3
pause
put answer %4
pause
put answer %5
pause
put answer %6
pause
put answer %7
pause
put answer %8
pause
put answer %9
goto YAYTHISSCRIPTISNTSTUPID

I fail to see your point Artha, but I already regret posting this, trying to help people out

[Bobmuhthol]

It doesn't help anyone but the morons who aren't smart enough to realize how bad it is. People like you give scripters a bad name.

[Dhuul]

and you give people who buy characters a bad name

[Bobmuhthol]

DHUUL IS DERAILING THE THREAD.

The way yours works, if you have to answer %7, %8 or %9, then it answers 24-30 times. Mine answers 9 and gets the same job done.
