[TELEGRAM] Yet Another BitcoinTalk Notification BOT (merits, mentions, topics,+)

[joniboini]

Here I captured two posts and one post have no line and one post which is circled have a red line, I don't know it is bot related or telegram setting related.
I see this line on just your bot not in other chats.

I also see no line, so the cause seems to be on your end. Have you updated Telegram to the latest version? Are you using the official client or a modded Telegram apk like Telegram X? It sounds weird if it disappears on its own when nothing is changed, sounds like a decoding issue if that's the case. I do change my theme once in a while and it affects how the message is displayed, but judging from your screenshot it looks like the default theme.

I've used this bot on Telegram's desktop version, and it works smooth. I've got a question, if I use the 'Ignore User' feature and input User X but also turn on the Tracked Topics feature, say for topic Y, if User X posts on topic Y, will I still get notifications?

No. You'll never get a notification from an ignored user.

No. You'll never get a notification from an ignored user.

Logically, no one who is going to ignore someone will do this, but:
Imagine that I have a user being "followed" by the bot. And later I "ignore" the user on the forum, what will the bot do? Or I "ignore" a user on the forum, and then it comes to the bot and I request to "follow" that user, how does the bot react?

I believe in both cases, the bot still notifies you because It accesses no personal forum data or settings, so it doesn't know if you ignored the user via the forum or not. All it does is scrap forum posts.

The only "ignoring" that matters is the bot's in-house ignore list.

This is what I also think when a forum member ignore a certain forum member and then make the bot follow the user and vice versa. The reason why I think the same is because Bitcointalk forum has isn't connected to the BOT and the BOT is only getting the data from the forum unless the user is ignored in the BOT then there will be no notification received when the user is mentioned.

So, if I ignore a user on the forum, and they quote me, will I still be notified? It makes sense.
I believe that whoever joins the forum will end up not ignoring the Bot.




TryNinja, it would be fun to present some Bot statistics. Number of topics followed, users followed, users ignored, most followed words, most followed topics, etc.
Or do you happen to not have this data, or do you not want to share it?

I do have everything, of course. But I always go with the "don't share anything" route by default. What if you don't want me to tell the world that you're using my bot? Or that you follow this user?

I'm always ok with publishing numbers, though.

857 users
754 topics tracked by 144 users
804 boards tracked by 101 users
187 phrases tracked by 73 users
120 users ignored by 24 users

6k ~ 8k notifications per day

It doesn't take that much! Just the generic numbers. 

Thanks for sharing. Excellent numbers, congratulations!

New Feature

Auto-Track Own Topics - if enabled, every new topic you make will be added to your tracked topics list (after confirmation).



I saw myself having to manually add most of my new topics to my list, so this makes life easier for me. Hopefully it's useful to other people.


How to enable it:

You can enable this feature on the "Notifications" menu (if needed, run /menu to get the main menu).

Active feature!
I ended up adding few of my topics, because it was a bit of work. This way they are all automatically listed. Thanks.

TryNinja Thanks a lot to you and the team behind. I was using this bot from long time.

I am here to suggest one thing if possible to implement, (If I keep someone in ignore list I am getting the notification if the ignored user mention or tag me. Is it possible to implement the feature to close notification from ignored user?)

I don't know if it’s already suggested by someone else. I just face this and come to share. Thanks again.

There is a ignore user feature on the bot. I just can't know who you're ignoring on the forum, that's why you also need to do that on the bot menu.

Ah, got it now. I only activated the notification feature and did not try to use the menu from long time my bad. I will try to use this. Thanks for the response.

Same experience as me when I also didn't use the bot for quite some time just to check to or see if there's a new feature added before I know about it until I decided to track this thread using the bot and now I get many notification from this thread and also being updated to whatever it is added or someone might need help within my knowledge about the bot especially from newbies or those who didn't use the bot yet.

Hello

Is your BitcoinTalk Notification BOT also getting active, when a post, where I'm mentioned or quoted, gets edited? Will it cause a notification?

Hello

There's no notification when someone mentioned you when they edited the post after 5 minutes. When someone quoted your post then you will get notified or received notification. If what you mean is different then here's a post from TryNinja about editing a post and then include your username.

If someone quotes you after editing the post within 10 minutes, you don't get notification for it?

They have 5 minutes to include your name, otherwise there is no notification.

The Bitcointalk BOT is one of the best things that has ever happened to me as a forum user.

The fact that I can actually keep track of my Bitcointalk conversations using the notification bot is indeed a life saver.

These days, I go directly to my account by clicking links from the notification bot and it takes me with precision, to the exact message whose notification popped up.

A commendable innovation there, I appreciate its developers as well

[Okayama]

I think there's a problem here. When I try to track usernames with capital letters (for excample Hhampuz and TryNinja), the bot automatically changes the capital letters I input into lowercase (output from bot hhampuz and tryninja). Maybe that's the main reason why I'm not getting notifications for some topics and posts created by users I've added to 'Tracked User'.

The username "hhampuz" is not found on Ninjastic, while "Hhampuz" is found. I believe the same applies to the username "tryninja," which won't be found on Ninjastic, while "TryNinja" is found.



Please tell me if it turns out that the way I use this bot is wrong then this mistake appear to me
