encryptObot functionality |
any public message containing an <encrypted> (or similar; see below) will be repeated by the bot with that tag replaced by a random madlib. Other functions available: <encrypted> <encrypt-ed> <encrypt:ed> <encrypt::ed> <encryptd> <linux> <qq> <qq2> <tld> <troll> <unit> <number> <numb.er> <number2> <number1> <werd1> <werd2> Also, capitalizing the first letter of the tag will cause the first letter of the substituted madlib to be capitalized. Capitalizing the entire tag will capitalize the entire madlib. Examples: <ttkay> how much <werd1> would a <werd2> chuck if a <werd2> could chuck <werd1> <encryptObot> <ttkay> how much stubby would a funkiness chuck if a funkiness could chuck stubby <brak> also boo, moving 150+ 53lb. servers :( <ttkay> <brak> also <qq>, moving <number>+ <number2>-<unit> servers <encryptObot> <ttkay> <brak> also fucil, moving 746+ 95-scotschain servers <ttkei> <Encrypted> <encryptObot> <ttkei> Senior revonobbled correspondent <ttkei> <ENCRYPTED> <encryptObot> <ttkei> ITAR-REGULATED TECHNOLOGY |
