I'm building a GB/BBS/Linkdump submitter - input needed
 

Hi Guys,

I started working on a GB/BBS/Linkdump submitter application, and I really need your input on what features would make people use it.

Thanks :thumbsup

I will give away free versions to the first 10 people actually contributing with something of value...

Guess nobody here likes you

* Proxies
* Random Messages
* Autofill CAPTCHA fields

guestbook spamming... :winkwink:

There already is one called AceWare.

However, when I've randomly checked sites at times to make sure that it's truely making the posts. I've not found the links. So obviously a better quality control.

Also a better, or more frequent updating DB (like Chamelon does). Also a customizable one where you can add in your own goodies.

:thumbsup

* Proxies:

<further specification: Use of a few public proxy locations and ability to add other urls for this ie; from paid proxy services, etc...also ability to input private password protected proxies like IP:port|user|pass ...and of course an indicator on the UI of how many good proxies are left, and the rotation of dead proxies into a dead file or just out of the paste in text area completely...>


* Captcha:

<further specification: or not, ability to hand fill in captcha for tough ones is fine, labor can be outsourced, maybe have this interact with a webpage setup, so that this tool doesn't have to be handed directly over to that labor pool doing the captcha stuff, know what I mean?>

:pimp

Great - thanks a lot, almost everything is quite useful.

However, Im not quite sure of how to read the capture image.. Any good tips from other programmers?

You're welcome ace.
:thumbsup

BBS means bulletin boards systems?

that is what it means :)

It's always a handy feature to have where the user is able to manually add their own sites to the database, or edited existing ones.

- Make sure it's multithreaded, cycling the different proxies amongst the threads
- Use google and other SE's as feeding for the GB/Blog/BBS URL's, also cycle proxies here to prevent IP blocks
- You can read CAPTCHA images by using some of the freely available OCR libraries
- Would be cool if it supported pingspam
- Auto registration and e-mail confirmation on the big forums (phpbb, invision, ubb)
- Same for blogs that require you to be logged in before you can comment

But remember, spamming is bad.. Hmmmokay!
