The bot is design to get a lot of PMs to change your order. I probably PM'd him more than 30 times AT LEAST.

But you need to respect the syntax.

Which is:
ITEMCODE numberoftimesyouwantit (default number is one).
ITEMCODE2 numberoftimesyouwantit
…

EMAIL youremail (only on the first PM)


Then he'll email you your invoice.

You can then modify it (numberoftimesyouwantit = 0 if you want to cancel your order), or choose to pay for it. (or both).

The payments options are:
PAYPAL (if you come from USA )
PAYPALINT (if not)
PAYEUR (for sepa if you come from EU)

you just send the code as if it was an item you want to buy.

And somewhere inbetween those steps you need to specify your address, but the bot should tell you how on your email.

Oh, and it may take some time to get the invoice/update, as the 7bit needs to run the script himself (crontab is too hard for him hoho). And if you want an update, just PM spam to the bot.

[damorgue]

And if you want an update, just PM spam to the bot.

I can confirm that it is quite resilient

Bebuxe, I think that the number on your rows would result in that being the number for the row above. The bot would probably interpret the number after each item, which is the number on the next row. It might be easier by clearing all and starting over.

7bit, does your bot cut of at carriage returns or does it identify the string and then just take the next number even if it is on a different row? Let's see if it can handle 'droptable' stuff

Ah, Thanks! Yeah, I never got my confirmation. Will resend soon.

And lol on the cron. How hard is:
echo "0 0 * * * PROGRAM_TO_EXECTUE /FILE/LOCATION" > 7bit_R4.cron \
crontab -u 7bit_R4 7bit_R4.cron

Sause: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron

Anyways, the pm Bot sounds awesome. Will try later at work.

He actually just doesn't own a server afaik, and doesn't want to let his own PC run 24/7.

At least that's what he said !

OH SH1T LOL.

Weekly payment report from 08/06/2012 through 08/10/2012:

08/09 nntnam, $xx.00 USD
08/08 staffanu, $xxx.03 USD
08/08 PointyFox, $xxx.90 USD
08/08 nomaddude, $xxx.93 USD
08/07 kvad, $x.07 USD
08/06 gbohn, $xx.35 USD

PointyFox, let me know if you still want a refund. I'd hate to see you miss out on these keycaps. Yeah, it's taking a long time, but we are nearing the home stretch. I just sent you a PM.

I'm posting these payment update lists here for your reference only as a curtesy. No action is necessary.
I "x" out the dollar amount for your privacy and leave the decimal amount for you to check against your records if you wish.

*Note: When I process your payment I mark them in Paypal as "Mark as Shipped". Paypal has been known to lock accounts where "Goods" payments are not marked as shipped within a certain amount of time. Since these GBs take so long, to avoid your payments being frozen up by Paypal, I mark them as shipped. Paypal will send you an email saying your order has been marked as shipped. * The shipping company will show as "7bit" and the "tracking number" will be your invoice number and username.

**Note: Your actual caps order has not shipped yet. The orders will ship after SP manufactures them, sends them to 7bit and he will ship them to you and notify you of the actual ship date and tracking information.

Thank you guys for your timely payments.

You forgot EMAIL, unless I am wrong on the syntax, again.
And I guess I need to fix my ADDRESS.
Anything in particular on the subject?

Email is optionnal, the bot is very laxist on it.

...
7bit, does your bot cut of at carriage returns or does it identify the string and then just take the next number even if it is on a different row? Let's see if it can handle 'droptable' stuff

It cuts off at LF (\n).

Also, lines must start with the name of the kit (no leading space).

Example:

ROUND3/TERMINAL/BLACK 5
ROUND3/SPACEOLD/BLACK 5
you@e-mail.address

Can't be simpler! Just give it a try.

Bebuxe,

Did you happen to read this well written guide to using the bot: http://deskthority.net/wiki/Round_Four_4_Dummies

I'm completely new to the whole keyboard community and didn't have any issues.

[blighty]

blightly, if you are volunteering to help collect money, then thank you!

What he said

Yeah, I figured if I could help things end quicker (shave a couple months of the wait time) why not. My keycool mini84 has to make due with some filco ninja keycaps until I can slap a R4 set on it.

[bebuxe]

>JmactheAttack
I have my good sir and no response . But what's up with following at http://deskthority.net/wiki/Round_Four_4_Dummies :

Code: Select all

Send a message to: [7bit].

Yes, right, not 7bit_4, because he isn't smart enough to figure out what you need. 

Sending two more to 7bit_R4 and 7bit himself.
And the reference should be http://deskthority.net/wiki/Doubleshot_ ... ts_Round_4

Be aware, I do not think invoices are sent instantaniously upon an order or dummy order. I have had it take a couple of days before getting a return invoice. I don't think you need your Address or Email Address on subsequent order changes, just the item you want to change. Anyone, correct me if this isn't accurate.

[bebuxe]

Cool. But I already paid to blighty. And got the same invoice 3 times.

Aren't all of these keys going to be plagued with the Signature Plastics mold mark?
