Allow Shout Box Automation Bots

[X8.]

Hey, my name is Alexander. Recently I thought of the implementation of shoutbox automation bots on MCMarket, and I have to really come to liking the idea.

I think it makes things easier, because manually doing it is some tiresome. Additionally this is a great compared to autobumpers, which other forums have. If this should be implemented, I would hate for it to become some shitty Ultimate feature.

IF YOU DISAGREE; STATE WHY​

This would just be annoying at one point, all you would see is people spamming their threads every 20 mins.

You could make the limit higher

I like how you added “if you disagree say why” you while you clearly haven’t looked at any of the other suggestions for this and the very clear reasoning why this is disallowed.

I’d be happy to list of a dozen reasons if you’d like.

1: Compare it to why auto bump was so controversial.
People will just forget about their ads in the auto bump. Or imagine 5 companies having ads every 20 minutes. The shoutbox will be flooded all the time. Conversation? Tons of ads.

2:
Literally the impractically of everyone else. You are imagining one or two ads, but dozens will do this. The shoutbox will be ruined.

3: Ruins smaller sellers. Big companies will setup 5-7 threads for different services and flood out the small thread.

I could go on once I’m on pc. Give me a few.[DOUBLEPOST=1572636771][/DOUBLEPOST]Edit:

There's a bunch more but still looking for them.

If we allowed people to automatically advertise we would inevitably have a dozen users constantly spamming their ads in chat and all ads would become incredibly ineffective.

I don't want to encourage people to break our terms of service either, and allowing automation is only bad for our users.

Denied, thanks for the suggestion
