Announcing forum releases

Open Crayder opened this issue 7 years ago • 5 comments

When a new thread is posted in the includes, filterscripts, or plugins section CJ can announce it in #releases

I think it'd be nice to have this but it should be restricted somehow... Perhaps only for people with a certain amount of rep (nothing big)? I just don't think it'd be right to announce ALL releases...

Could be done with scraping the archive page since as far as I can tell this is sorted by thread date not last post date.

Why it shouldn't be good to announce all releases?

Actually, it might be cool to just scrape every release and run analytics on them ("10 'AFK' filterscripts released during January!") but then have a keyword blacklist for releases that come out often (like... AFK scripts!)

The blacklist should be dynamic or hard-coded?

Dynamic, so admins can add/remove terms from the admin channel. If we notice a particular type of release is popping up too often we can just opt to ignore them.
