Is it possible to have a Discord bot submit new topics being posted on a specific subforum from here?

Just as there are bot's that pester the fuck out of you on both discord and telegram, i'd assume it's easy to make.

Yeah I should be more clear,  is there anything like this already existing, if so it would be greatly apperciated if I could get a pointer :)

It exists for different things but i never heard of anyone wanting bitcointalk feed on discord. Yes it exists but I doubt that for the forum.

If you wanna hire someone it should be something simple and cheap don't overpay  8)

Forum died years ago for many, if it ever existed, and slowly dying for others too.

Such bots would needs access to Bitcointalk backend or some external apis need to be created from scratch, because Bitcointalk is customized to the level that no such updates possible any more.

I don’t think Bitcointalk is available on any other social media except one lonely Twitter handle @bitcointalk that too Theymos uses once in a blue moon... and  only when nothing else works and just to update about what’s happening to Bitcointalk.org

The bot just needs to read a piece of text and paste it lol. You can see loyceV bot that constantly reads and saves all posts and edits. you got bip32.org that has a recount of all users with stats, not that i agree with DT but it exists.

You can make one if you need/want
TryNinja's site parses the forum and has a db and APIs

The new ninjastic.space (http://ninjastic.space) website is out! Remade from scratch.

Pages:

- Unedited/archived post: https://ninjastic.space/post/55139442
- Unedited/archived posts on specific topic: https://ninjastic.space/topic/5273824

Not sure it stores board/subforum info...
But seems doable

Happy coding  :P

I am not sure your intention is for forum members (log-in accounts) or guests only.

If a member log-ins an account, the Watch board can help: https://bitcointalk.org/watch_board.php
Quote
Adding a board to this list will cause all new topics posted there to be added to your watchlist automatically. You must enter the board ID, which is visible in the URL: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=39.0.
You can watch or unwatch a board.

You can use the Board Preference list: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1292764;sa=ignoreBoards

You can get every new post on a specified board (and its child broads), but there is no easy way of knowing what is a new thread and what is just a reply on an already existent thread. Last 10 posts on Meta: https://api.ninjastic.space/posts?board=24&order=DESC&limit=10
