So, this thing has been consuming lots of my time the past few weeks, so that is where I probably was if you were wondering.

https://github.com/Nickster258/nick_bot

In total I have written over 700 lines for this project and I plan on doing much more with it and eventually restructuring it to a proper object oriented program.

At the moment I am still assembling basic stuff but I have so far assembled cool functions such as interfacing with the Slack API in posting messages and a cool URL shortener function with the bitly API.

Dang I have no idea what it is, but I'm impressed that you could do it.

I Really doubt most people will know anything he just said. I Suggest you dumb it down if you want anyone to have any sense of what you just said.

Essentially it is an IRC bot that listens to specific trigger events that, once called, does unique things. From sending a message to an entirely new service, or just returning a shortened URL of what was pasted.

I made a public IRC library for this, IRCBot.java, that does lots of this for you. You can make an IRCBot rather easily and read/write what you wish through it.

I just added a function that searched Urban Dictionary for terms and returned either the definition, or "No results found".

Found this out of the madness that ensued after publishing changes:

Learned multithreading and added timeout.java.

This is used along side users.java and this method for anti-spam measures.

Currently only 5 requests per minute.
