How to refer to a package

How do you except to a file fully being logged by requiring it

earnest phoenix Mar 20, 2018, 2:08 PM

not that

earnest phoenix Mar 20, 2018, 2:09 PM

#

everything is fine

#

package is connected

#

but in package code there is something wrong

#

and i want to fix it

#

is it that fucking hard

tepid laurel Mar 20, 2018, 2:09 PM

#

Is the file a function?

earnest phoenix Mar 20, 2018, 2:09 PM

#

module.exports = function () {
    request("https://bts.net.pl/random_image/api", function(err, link) {
                return link.body;
            });
    }   ```

tepid laurel Mar 20, 2018, 2:10 PM

#

You realize

#

That if you export it of a file

#

<somefile>.somefunc()

#

Is what you want

earnest phoenix Mar 20, 2018, 2:10 PM

#

https://bts.net.pl/random_image/api/

this is the url i fetch images url from

tepid laurel Mar 20, 2018, 2:11 PM

#

Change module.exports = function()

#

To

#

exports.<somenameforthefunction> = function()

#

Give it a name, and then

#

Wherever you are requiring it

#

<somefile>.thatFunctionofYours()

You at least got it t work 🤷🏼‍♂️

#

And looking at what you do with the request

#

You do not know at all what you are doing, do you?

earnest phoenix Mar 20, 2018, 2:16 PM

#

i do know

tepid laurel Mar 20, 2018, 2:16 PM

#

Then why use brackets on request

earnest phoenix Mar 20, 2018, 2:16 PM

#

i dont know if i should choose snekfetch or request

tepid laurel Mar 20, 2018, 2:16 PM

#

Either way youre still doing it wrong

earnest phoenix Mar 20, 2018, 2:16 PM

#

i could use snekfetch

tepid laurel Mar 20, 2018, 2:17 PM

#

request() is a function that returns the url fetched

#

Not sure if its a promise

#

I do know request-promise will return it promise based

earnest phoenix Mar 20, 2018, 2:17 PM

#

im trying to fetch what it says on https://bts.net.pl/random_image/api/

tepid laurel Mar 20, 2018, 2:17 PM

And you could act on that 🤷🏼‍♂️

#

ywah maybe

ruby dust Mar 20, 2018, 3:36 PM

#

hmm, that's the only thing I can think of

#

maybe that's it

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 3:40 PM

#

I need a very thorough and informative tutorial on how to use dataset..specifically in discord.py async.....I looked on YT but I couldn't find anything....

low rivet Mar 20, 2018, 3:40 PM

#

do you know python?

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 3:40 PM

#

ish...

#

It's my only programming language

low rivet Mar 20, 2018, 3:41 PM

#

have u done any projects before?

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 3:42 PM

#

yes, I had on old bot a while back...but since I created a new bot....it is much more advanced than before...

#

but not with dataset...

#

brb

low rivet Mar 20, 2018, 3:42 PM

#

what dataset

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 3:43 PM

#

you know...dataset....the database "language" (I guess you could call it?)

low rivet Mar 20, 2018, 3:44 PM

#

owo theres actually a lib called dataset

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 3:44 PM

#

yes

low rivet Mar 20, 2018, 3:44 PM

#

https://dataset.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ you can refer to the docs

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 3:45 PM

#

I have literally no-clue how to set it up or how to integrate it into my commands

#

oh ok....thanks...I guess 😃

low rivet Mar 20, 2018, 3:45 PM

#

well i use mongo (yaml and json if that counts)

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 3:46 PM

#

lol....I was advised not to use JSON by another certified dev sooooo lol 😄

#

My goal with dataset is to get typical "economy commands" and a customizable prefix

low rivet Mar 20, 2018, 3:47 PM

#

JSON isnt good for databases, but its ok for config. im moving over to yaml for config now though cos it looks better

solemn obsidian Mar 20, 2018, 3:47 PM

#

using nosql database and storing json in files are a different thing

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 3:47 PM

#

ok

#

For anyone that has made them before, are database commands like "economy" (based) commands and customizable prefix's easy???

low rivet Mar 20, 2018, 3:48 PM

#

yes if u know how to work with databases and all

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 3:49 PM

#

obviously I don't lol 😄 but that's a bit more encouraging thanks anyway lol 😄

#

db = dataset.connect('sqlite:///mydatabase.db')

# connecting to a MySQL database with user and password
db = dataset.connect('mysql://user:password@localhost/mydatabase')

# connecting to a PostgreSQL database
db = dataset.connect('postgresql://scott:tiger@localhost:5432/mydatabase')``` Do I need to use this at all???

low rivet Mar 20, 2018, 3:49 PM

#

that isnt a hard goal though, once you manage it youll understand basic insert and getting data

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 3:49 PM

#

ok

low rivet Mar 20, 2018, 3:49 PM

#

i think thats just examples of different uris

#

depends on your uri

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 3:50 PM

#

oh ok lol

#

I don't have a database yet...do I need one or can I just do that inside of the code???

low rivet Mar 20, 2018, 3:51 PM

#

you need one

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 3:51 PM

#

ok...

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 4:20 PM

#

             aliases=['Account', 'ACCOUNT'])
async def account(ctx):
    table.insert(dict(name=ctx.message.author, balance='100'))``` OK...I *think* that I have come to grips with it....is this the sort of thing that would be used to add a record on the database???

ruby dust Mar 20, 2018, 4:44 PM

#

why do I always see you asking a question with at least 3 question marks at the end...?

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 4:45 PM

#

idk....

#

anyway, what is missing before table.insert as it's giving me an error

#

if you know obviosuly...

ruby dust Mar 20, 2018, 4:46 PM

#

I only know SQLite3

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 4:46 PM

#

oh....i'm using dataset

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 5:28 PM

infront nothing

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 6:29 PM

#

             aliases=['Account', 'ACCOUNT'])
async def account(self, ctx):

topaz fjord Mar 20, 2018, 6:30 PM

#

Then it's not defined

#

Don't know how clear it can be...

abstract crystal Mar 20, 2018, 6:30 PM

#

have you defined table var?

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 6:30 PM

#

no

abstract crystal Mar 20, 2018, 6:30 PM

#

well there you go

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 6:30 PM

#

how do I do that?

#

lol 😂

elder rapids Mar 20, 2018, 6:30 PM

#

table.insert => This isn't Lua

abstract crystal Mar 20, 2018, 6:30 PM

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 6:30 PM

no, it's dataset

~~it would've been a lot easier if you would just go with SQLite3~~

oh lord

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 6:31 PM

#

yea

elder rapids Mar 20, 2018, 6:31 PM

#

You didn't know SQL is a language

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 6:31 PM

#

...

#

don't ask

elder rapids Mar 20, 2018, 6:31 PM

#

SQL => Structured Query Language

ruby dust Mar 20, 2018, 6:31 PM

#

you start with import sqlite3, make any sense?

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 6:32 PM

#

I start with import dataset but yea...it makes sense

ruby dust Mar 20, 2018, 6:32 PM

#

haha

#

ok

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 6:32 PM

#

lol 😄

abstract crystal Mar 20, 2018, 6:32 PM

then you continue with _DB = dataset.connect('sqlite:///./database.db')

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 6:33 PM

#

I'm using dataset for the last time...

ruby dust Mar 20, 2018, 6:33 PM

oh lord, dataset is so difficult compared with sqlite3

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 6:33 PM

OK fine....i'll migrate to that since I have done nothing so far

#

I'll only migrate if this command fails though

I just spotted a typo as well lol 😄

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 6:58 PM

table.update(dict(name=ctx.message.author.id, balance=balance + 500)) will that work...I made it up off the top of my head so idk..

abstract crystal Mar 20, 2018, 6:58 PM

#

not rly

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 6:58 PM

#

hmmmm

#

how could I add more to the balance variable then?

#

or should 500 be a string???

abstract crystal Mar 20, 2018, 7:00 PM

#

No

#

That part is ok

You need to specify which column should update function search for the id

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 7:01 PM

My bots code is 925 lines long....I should probably learn how to shard it....any hints for tutorials for d.py async???

abstract crystal Mar 20, 2018, 7:57 PM

no

#

it's not the lines it's the servers that you shard

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 7:57 PM

#

ohhhh

#

ok...my bot is only in 11 servers so...I could forget about it...but if it's easy then I might as well do it....is it relatively easy??

abstract crystal Mar 20, 2018, 7:58 PM

#

also what are you doing on async lul

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 7:58 PM

#

lol

abstract crystal Mar 20, 2018, 7:58 PM

#

use rewrite, async is feature locked

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 7:58 PM

#

can't be assed to migrate 😂

#

it's sooo....what's the word....gritty I guess

topaz fjord Mar 20, 2018, 7:59 PM

You should probs use a CMD handler

also, how do I shard my bot?

abstract crystal Mar 20, 2018, 8:00 PM

and you dont use sharding until you get to at least 2500 servers

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 8:00 PM

#

oh....fair enough

topaz fjord Mar 20, 2018, 8:00 PM

@abstract crystal u sharder at 1k

*I sharded

lol

trim plinth Mar 20, 2018, 8:01 PM

@abstract crystal Your bot will be broke by the time you reach 2500 servers because you didn't shard in time

damn then it already broke

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 8:01 PM

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 8:04 PM

#

python -m async2rewrite ollie.py so I did this...but nothing happened

elfin ledge Mar 20, 2018, 8:04 PM

#

when a bot is sharded

#

does it split the server equally

#

or

#

does it do like 2500 one shards 100 servers another

topaz fjord Mar 20, 2018, 8:04 PM

#

No

It doesn't split equally

elfin ledge Mar 20, 2018, 8:05 PM

#

how does it split

topaz fjord Mar 20, 2018, 8:05 PM

#

It can be a random amount on each

elfin ledge Mar 20, 2018, 8:05 PM

#

does it balance the servers tho

abstract crystal Mar 20, 2018, 8:05 PM

#

it isn't random

#

i think

topaz fjord Mar 20, 2018, 8:05 PM

#

For d.js it is

#

Doesn't split Evenly

abstract crystal Mar 20, 2018, 8:05 PM

#

it's not up to the lib

#

gateway splits servers

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 8:06 PM

#

so @abstract crystal how do I use async2rewrite???

abstract crystal Mar 20, 2018, 8:06 PM

#

read the README.md

#

(guild_id >> 22) % num_shards == shard_id

topaz fjord Mar 20, 2018, 8:06 PM

#

I've seen a bot have 3k servers with 1.3k on one and 1.7k on another

is it dangerous to shard your bot too early??

no, but it's useless

from discord.ext.commands import AutoShardedBot why am I unable to do this?

oh did you update discord.py to rewrite?

let me reiterate myself: did you update discord.py to rewrite?

I have...into a different file, however, I am not yet going to use that file

abstract crystal Mar 20, 2018, 8:22 PM

wdym into a different file

#

did you do pip install -U ......

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 8:22 PM

#

When I did python -m async2rewrite ollie.py it created a new file that was updated to rewrite, however, I have decided to not yet run that file

abstract crystal Mar 20, 2018, 8:23 PM

#

ok

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 8:23 PM

I did pip install discord.py[rewrite] if that's what you mean?? lol 😄

well that doesn't work

but sure

ohhh, yea, when I did that...it installed all that I needed BTW

abstract crystal Mar 20, 2018, 8:25 PM

#

it installed async

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 8:26 PM

#

what, when i did pip install discord.py[rewrite]...the rewrite bit is there for a reason

#

from discord.ext.commands import AutoShardedBot anyway, why doesn't this work???

#

or do you not know?

abstract crystal Mar 20, 2018, 8:28 PM

#

Because you don't have rewrite installed

nimble merlin Mar 20, 2018, 8:29 PM

oh ok...would it work on async code but with rewrite installed???

What's wrong with this 'purge10': (msg) => { if (msg.guild.member(msg.author).hasPermission('MANAGE_MESSAGES')) msg.channel.fetchMessages(10).then(msgs => msgs.delete()) },

tepid laurel Mar 20, 2018, 10:53 PM

fetchMessages returns a collection

You cant call delete like that on a full collection

bulkDelete is what deletes a certain amount of messages at once

Call it on a channel and pass either an amount to delete, a collection etc

@gilded blaze you'd need to check the audit log and see if there is a kick event for that member recently (within the last second)

And that

const User = require('discord.js').User

        }
    }
}

module.exports = socialUser;

sharp stump Mar 21, 2018, 8:23 AM

#

what's that class for?

tepid laurel Mar 21, 2018, 8:23 AM

#

Well gonna extend the regular user class

#

To add new props and functions

#

On the class itself

#

Just the super part

#

Didnt do that before yet

#

Made my own classes yes, but extending no

sharp stump Mar 21, 2018, 8:24 AM

#

that's pretty difficult because discord.js creates regular users

#

you'd probably be better off creating a stand alone class with a user property like member

I'm having an issue with my Discord Bot.

Every so often my bot goes offline and does not respond to commands. It does not leave an error which confuses me.

I've tried this with just node ., nodemon and PM2 I primarily use PM2.

When using PM2. It continues to say it's online (while offline in Discord), it leaves no logs or errors.

I'm highly confused why it goes offline and it's hosted on AWS.

good point....I probably should...

it's not that different from async, but it has some changes in the code

P.S: I have checked the docs for async and couldn't find what I was looking for

if you are using rewrite, why are you looking up the async docs?

i'm not...i'm not switching for a few more days

ruby dust Mar 21, 2018, 6:49 PM

well async is pretty outdated and will probably never receive any updates, so you have your chance to switch libs while you still can

Are you sure you know python

nimble merlin Mar 21, 2018, 7:19 PM

no....it's just a hobbie...the only decent way to learn it is to do it

that's my opinion anyway

You should probs take some courses online

To learn the language fully

topaz fjord Mar 21, 2018, 7:36 PM

#

What are you trying to do

ruby dust Mar 21, 2018, 7:36 PM

#

you know, users being users, sometimes the console prints a normal command execution and sometimes this error, and since I can't see what the users do I don't know the cause of it

topaz fjord Mar 21, 2018, 7:37 PM

#

So

#

Do you use pm2

#

Yes or no

ruby dust Mar 21, 2018, 7:37 PM

#

I don't know what that means, but I'm using d.py btw

topaz fjord Mar 21, 2018, 7:38 PM

#

Ok

#

So what you should do

#

Is when you console.log errors

#

Set the timestamp it console.logged

#

And also create a log file that logs what command was used at what timr

#

Time

#

Then wait for it to appear again

#

Then you'll know the cause

ruby dust Mar 21, 2018, 7:39 PM

#

hmm, but the problem is that I can't see what the command was used or the other type of issue because of that error appearing instead...

topaz fjord Mar 21, 2018, 7:39 PM

Why not log the command in your message event

Steps to get bot info in python:

Pleaseeee useee async (aiohttp) but if you insist fine use requests, just remember that they are not asynchronous
Make a request to GET BOT api endpoint (/api/bots/insert_bot_id_here)
Parse JSON request to a dict object with data = your_request_var.json()
Read data from the dict: short_description = data['shortdesc']

nimble merlin Mar 21, 2018, 8:59 PM

#

             aliases=['BotInfo', 'BOTINFO', 'Botinfo'])

    data = get.info.json()
    name = data['username']
    bot_id = data['id']
    discriminator = data['discriminator']
    short_description = data['shortdesc']
    certified = data['certifiedBot']
    library = data['library']
    tags = data['tags']
    owners = data['owners']
    prefix = data['prefix']``` Did you mean like that???

why get in get.info if your request var is info

@restive silo is that like a common issue?

#

Cause I have that event disabled aswell and been having the errors that “Members didnt arrive in time”

#

Might that be connected?

restive silo Mar 22, 2018, 12:31 PM

#

Yea you shouldnt disable that event

#

it is related

#

Because basecally you fetch members but ignore tge result snd then d.js timeout

you don't need to disable user_note_update, nor user_settings_update, relationship_add and relationship_remove

#

you will never receive them on a bot account

#

also i don't recommend disabling channel_pins_update, the lib use it to update the cached channel object

Hey, you know how we can setup botinfo commands by getting info from the DBL API, well, if the bot in question doesn't have a server count, how can I get my bot to change Server Count: ... to Server Count: No Server Count without the command failing as it checks for a servercount????

you need to post stats

there's no other way to add server count

Im tryna make my bot message a specific thing in all the servers it's in, I already have this var guildList = bot.guilds.array() guildList.forEach(guild => guild.defaultChannel.send("+on"))
but the problem is that .defaultChannel is deprecated, but I can't use const blah = guild.channel.find("name", "general") because it can't define guild, and if I put it in the .forEach statement it doesn't like it

edgy needle Mar 22, 2018, 8:28 PM

#

i need it to get the server count and show it

slim heart Mar 22, 2018, 8:30 PM

#

@edgy needle show it where?

edgy needle Mar 22, 2018, 8:31 PM

#

ik how to make it in PLaying

#

i just need to get it

#

the value

slim heart Mar 22, 2018, 8:31 PM

#

client.guilds.size

edgy needle Mar 22, 2018, 8:31 PM

#

lemme try it

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 8:33 PM

#

'GitHub'(if github else "No GitHub repo")) What would be wrong with this???

oblique sequoia Mar 22, 2018, 8:34 PM

#

Github is a variable right

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 8:34 PM

#

yes

slim heart Mar 22, 2018, 8:34 PM

#

crap

abstract crystal Mar 22, 2018, 8:34 PM

#

hmmmm hyperhmm

edgy needle Mar 22, 2018, 8:34 PM

#

Heroku 24/7 worked i dont need to pay

slim heart Mar 22, 2018, 8:34 PM

#

One Eyed Reaper

#

that doesnt work

#

i think

#

cuz that's for js not py :>

abstract crystal Mar 22, 2018, 8:35 PM

#

my friend @edgy needle

oblique sequoia Mar 22, 2018, 8:35 PM

#

so you can do something like value=github or "No GitHub repo"

abstract crystal Mar 22, 2018, 8:35 PM

#

no (one eyed....)

oblique sequoia Mar 22, 2018, 8:35 PM

#

it tries the github variable first

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 8:35 PM

#

ik...but I want it to be a hyperlink

abstract crystal Mar 22, 2018, 8:35 PM

#

@nimble merlin show the whole line

#

tnx

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 8:35 PM

#

k

oblique sequoia Mar 22, 2018, 8:35 PM

#

Like a []() style link?

edgy needle Mar 22, 2018, 8:35 PM

#

At least my bot is online when my pc is off

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 8:36 PM

#

oh...erm...yea...kinda hold on

#

embed.add_field(name='GitHub:', value='GitHub'(if github else "No GitHub repo"))

abstract crystal Mar 22, 2018, 8:36 PM

#

there is the problem

#

why do you have if statement in parenthesis

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 8:36 PM

#

GitHub needs to be in []???

#

to check for a github link???

abstract crystal Mar 22, 2018, 8:37 PM

#

value=f"[GitHub]({github_link_var})" if github_link_var else "No GitHub repo"

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 8:38 PM

#

oh

#

ok...thanks....😳

abstract crystal Mar 22, 2018, 8:40 PM

#

your line doesn't make sense because you have "Github" as string but then just a space no + or something to link it together, then you have if statement in parentheses and nothing before if which makes it unusable

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 8:42 PM

#

Well.....i'm a dumb ass when it comes to coding soooooo

ruby dust Mar 22, 2018, 8:44 PM

#

if isinstance(ctx.channel, discord.DMChannel):
    return
```is this a good way to check if the command was ran in DM? (discord.py-rewrite)

abstract crystal Mar 22, 2018, 8:44 PM

#

uhmmmm lemme check, but i think yes

#

yes this should be fine

ruby dust Mar 22, 2018, 8:45 PM

#

alright thanks

earnest phoenix Mar 22, 2018, 8:59 PM

#

@slim heart that is not good code for global announcements

#

That will spam the API

slim heart Mar 22, 2018, 8:59 PM

#

ik i'm just tryna add all the guilds to a mysql row 😢

earnest phoenix Mar 22, 2018, 9:01 PM

#

so you're not trying to do global announcements anymore?

slim heart Mar 22, 2018, 9:01 PM

#

Well like, I was tryna get the bot to say +on in every guild

#

so I guess kinda it's an announcement

#

So ye

#

 var on = {
    "serverid": message.guild.id,
    "censor": true,
    "servername": message.guild.name
}
connection.query("DELETE FROM censorbot WHERE serverid = " + message.guild.id)
connection.query("INSERT INTO censorbot SET ?", on)
message.delete()
console.log("l")
}    ``` just fyi

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 9:03 PM

#

             aliases=['Prefix', 'PREFIX'])
@commands.has_permissions(administrator=True)
async def prefix(ctx, *args):
    try:
        prefix = db['prefix']
        prefix.insert(dict(name=ctx.message.
server.name, prefix='{}'.format(args)))``` Right, so this is the start of my prefix command...only issue that I have is how I can get my bot to set the prefix for the server that the command is used in....any leads???

slim heart Mar 22, 2018, 9:04 PM

#

use a db

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 9:04 PM

#

I am...but how do I transfer the inputted prefix to change the prefix used on the server???

#

all that you see above you is using a database

slim heart Mar 22, 2018, 9:05 PM

#

Not sure how to do it in the language ur using, but you should just be able to look for 'prefix' where serverid = serverid and set that to a variable when running a command

#

idk tho

abstract crystal Mar 22, 2018, 9:05 PM

#

well if you are on rewrite and have read the docs, you'd know that there is a function for that

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 9:05 PM

#

hmm

#

I am still using async....sorry

slim heart Mar 22, 2018, 9:06 PM

#

Thonk

abstract crystal Mar 22, 2018, 9:06 PM

#

hyperhmm

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 9:09 PM

#

My guess is that no-one has a clue....correct???

slim heart Mar 22, 2018, 9:09 PM

#

Read

#

The

#

Docs

#

👌

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 9:10 PM

#

can I find it on the async docs???

slim heart Mar 22, 2018, 9:10 PM

#

I'm pretty sure Nani made it quite obvious...

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 9:10 PM

#

or the db docs maybe???

slim heart Mar 22, 2018, 9:11 PM

#

Well either way, you should have read all of the docs before trying to do something...

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 9:11 PM

#

Not helpful.....from his context...he is either saying that I need to read the rewrite docs or the db docs

#

I don't use rewrite sooooo....i'll try the db docs

slim heart Mar 22, 2018, 9:12 PM

#

zoomeyes

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 9:12 PM

#

what?

#

OK...now i'm just confused....

#

Actually.....I was confused the whole time TBH

abstract crystal Mar 22, 2018, 9:15 PM

#

@nimble merlin you have two options:

Migrate to rewrite
Write your own custom prefix checking and command finding

ruby dust Mar 22, 2018, 9:15 PM

#

you admited that you are new to coding, that should have hinted you to go learn more a dozen times

abstract crystal Mar 22, 2018, 9:15 PM

#

gl m8

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 9:15 PM

#

Jesus you don't have to be a dick about it

abstract crystal Mar 22, 2018, 9:15 PM

#

stating facts, i'm sorry

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 9:16 PM

#

Yea, well then state them in a less "dominant" way

#

Once upon a time, you knew as much as I did

ruby dust Mar 22, 2018, 9:17 PM

#

now stop being a dick yourself, people are trying their best to help you, a beginner, that refuses to learn by themselves

abstract crystal Mar 22, 2018, 9:17 PM

#

yes but i went on a voyage on the vast seas of google and tutorials

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 9:17 PM

#

Like.. talking.. to.. a.. brick.. wall...

ruby dust Mar 22, 2018, 9:17 PM

#

🤦

#

I'm out

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 9:18 PM

#

You know what...forget it...forget..it

ruby dust Mar 22, 2018, 9:18 PM

#

are you finally going to learn yourself? o.0

#

will that finally happen?

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 9:19 PM

#

I don't know...only time will tell

#

I'm not a god....I have school and other various concerns about my life to worry about...this isn't a proffession...although, admitadley, I could do more TBH

#

Can we drop this now....it's kinda gotten off-topic

abstract crystal Mar 22, 2018, 9:20 PM

#

As I stated before and I can't stress this enough times: Do not plunge into bot development, which is not easy, without learning the basics of python like loops and statements...

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 9:21 PM

#

You done yet?

ruby dust Mar 22, 2018, 9:21 PM

#

well good for you lol, I have work that takes almost a whole day of my life, and I manage to do like 10 times more than you asking here for help

abstract crystal Mar 22, 2018, 9:21 PM

#

Get yourself a raspberry pi or something and learn functional programmin

#

pls

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 9:22 PM

#

Yea, your opinion means nothing to me...like anybody elses...sorry that i'm a Jack Ass but that's just how I am

abstract crystal Mar 22, 2018, 9:22 PM

#

if you are creating bots I at least expect you to know how to loop a for loop five times

#

enough said

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 9:22 PM

#

THANK YOU!!! Now we can drop the conversation before the Ban Hammer does it's work

ruby dust Mar 22, 2018, 9:23 PM

#

I sometimes think you are under 13... just because of the fact that every single message you send has a hint of your emotions

earnest phoenix Mar 22, 2018, 9:24 PM

#

Well messages should convey emotions

nimble merlin Mar 22, 2018, 9:24 PM

#

Actually....it's typical for a 10-16 (average) year old to express their emotions like that

#

Emotions are what make is mentally human
