Aron - Retired  |
Hi guys and gal's  This comes as much as a suprise for you as it does for me. ... well, it will probably suprise you more. I apologize for everything I am about to write, and the fact that my retirement comes so sudden. I've been going through some really positive Real Life(TM) changes lately, both physically as mentally. I feel "different" in a way. I don't think I can give this much time to the Academy, nor the whole "internet thing" anymore. I want to focuss on things that are more important to me. Thanks for the awesome times I had. I've gotten to know some awesome people, which I am really grateful for. Thank you, you all know who you are. Quote: I won't make this too long. I will shut down all the IRC bots soon too. Sorry  Edit: JAbot will keep running for as long as possible. It is pretty self sufficient, I guess. Anyway, don't think too much of all this. The Academy will easily manage without me, as long as everyone just really wants to make it happen. This place is not just a regular internet community, and I'm glad I have been here to whitness it from the beginning. Take care everyone. Aron This post was edited by Aron on Jul 24 2004 02:18pm. |

Basically, all the bots (JAbot, Statz0r) are pieces of instable-coded junk. Sure, they seem to work on the outside, but they both give dozens of problems. I thought of improving the code and then leaving it running, but I changed my mind really. I really reaaally don't feel like working on them anymore. Do with the bots and the code what you (DJ) wish. Feel free to throw it away, or give it to anyone who you think can put it to some use. JAbot is still running for now, but I won't look after it anymore. The statbots require too much maintainence, and besides, the code was way in development, and unstable as hell. |

I thought comicbot went down months ago :\ Ugh... if JAbot's not going down (I see aron edited the post), why would Statz0r be going down? It's as "self sufficient" as JAbot _______________ Your friends of today, are your enemies of tomorrow. |

Aron - It's a shame to see you go but i guess when RL calls u gotta answer I hope everything works out for ya. It was great to know you. You helped me alot in my venture to script/program IRC bots. Thanks to you i learned many new things and you were always willing to help when i had a question. You indeed are a great person.

The problem is not hosting, it isn't Aron who hosts them at the moment anyway (I believe DJ has something to do with that), it's that Aron is pretty much the only JAK+ with enough knowledge of TCL. I know enough TCL to make another JAbot, and I believe another several dozens of people do so too. I don't know as much as Aron does, but I don't believe JAbot represents Aron's TCL skills. Quote: Perhaps there are Students who know TCL, or does JAbot have secret stuff? Well if I remember well, Aron provided the JA with JAbot even before he was JAStaff (only that JAbot wasn't auto-op then). I hope someone gets the bots; there is no JA w/o JAbot _______________ Your friends of today, are your enemies of tomorrow. This comment was edited by _cmad_ on Jul 21 2004 10:27am. |

Well Aron, I'm glad to hear about those positive changes. You've helped me since my first day in the Academy, by helping me to sign in first (I'm a computer n00b ), then with those awesome duels we had. I didn't got to know you very well, however, for what I heard about you in this topic goes well beyond the (already very positive) opinion I had about you.

I'm just wondering about something: Perhaps it's possible to pass the Bots on, Aron? To someone who has a server (if needed) which can be dedicated to this? Like I said in my last post, I, for one, will certainly miss you! You showed me kindness when I didn't expect any (that profile thing between me and Rikard), and to see you had sent me a mail just to explain really warmed my heart The Academy won't be the same without you, my friend! Have fun in RL, and like Casual said, I think you've got a girl If so, give her my love and best wishes. Also pass on my best-wishes to your brother, who is going to get married soon, I think if I remember correct? - Bail - _______________ Visit the Belouve Family Website!
