Here's comands for the ghost bot for you guys so when it's in the clan channel you can use it.

At the moment there's 3 bots in clan bt channel in lordaeron. you'll need to be added to the admin list for the bot or bots you want to use first. For qweqbot-usa use (!), for snuffybot-aus use (.), and for rambowe use (') for the commands.

I got ghost bot working finally for btanks8.56. I am working on a way to let people download the map from my computer still. everyone in clan bt is an admin so far. if you'd like a lordaeron account to be added to the admin list please make a request here and i'll do so for you. For now qweqbot is just going to host 1 game at a time but if I had a better computer and internet connection he could host up to 5 games at a time I think.

to host with qweqbot her's the basic comands. just type these things:

1. !pub xxx (where xxx is the game name)
2. !swap x y (to swap players in the game lobby if needed)
3. !start force (once you're ready to start the game)

If you do this and qweqbot doesn't host a game for you then it is because it's already hosting a game and won't host another one untill that game has finished.

Hey guys, what is the command(s) for the host to get the location/latency of the player(s)?

!from and !ping

I noticed that the command to disable the annoying refresh message was not listed, so i'll put it here:

!refresh off

Is there any way to view the bots banlist?

[qweqqweq]

not that i know of. If you find that some dick-head admin has banned you then just type:

!delban yournamehere

that should take care of it. I've been banned on my own bot by some ass-holes 2 or 3 times already.

Is there any way for the bot to disable the banlist for a game it hosts?

[qweqqweq]

i'm not sure, you could try !hold playername

even though if i banned some one they had to do something really bad you can still [!delban playername] some one if you want to. i don't want my bans to be permanent anyways. i'll just ban them again if they do something really bad again.
