  • Prevents constant spam
  • Stops frustrating users with pointless replies to their threads
  • Encourages the people who love to circlejerk to be helpful instead

Implemented.

If a user posts "Bot Suite" with no other helpful information they will face a temporary ban.

What is helpful information?
While a complete configuration for Bot Suite is not expected, a reply to a bot request should include more information about what Bot Suite is, how it works, and offer advice on how best to create a bot to fulfil the request.

Spamming and shitposting on the forums is not helpful, nor how one should act on RuneMate.

So I can make a bot suite help guide copy pasta or do I need to switch some letters around each time so it won't be considered shit posting?

A lot of these requested bots can be done with bot suite.

no he's got an actual point, it's not like he's posting "Bot Suite" under every request there is, but many requests are about simple niche bots which can easily be done with Bot Suite instead of programming a whole new bot for it
Its easier for @kazemanie to ban me then to say i'm right. :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Hey, I'm the author of Bot Suite (btw). While I appreciate the publicity, it has become some sort of a meme to post it as a reply to most thread in the requests. I agree with OP. For cases where it's appropriate, I'd say it's fine to post it recommending Bot Suite and to give a little bit of detail and information, but it's not appropriate for things such as bossing or high-level content.
