Silly bot would invisibly listen to | Silly bot would (invisibly) listen to incoming messages sent in Global chat for as long as the script was active. When a chat participant sent a message matching certain arbritrary regexes, it may reply back with an accompanying message—either privately to the sender, or globally for everyone. For example, if a participant sent a message containing "''meow''", silly bot may privately reply to the participant "''meow''", "''mrrp''", "''mrow''", or "''mew''". For each message that matched a given regex, registered users were rewarded with "silly points", an arbitrary point system with no real value. | ||
Silly bot also had a few commands users could invoke, such as '''!optout''' to opt out of replies, '''!leaderboard''' to view the top 10 users with the largest amount of silly points, or '''!help''' to view a list of commands. | Silly bot also had a few commands users could invoke, such as '''!optout''' to opt out of replies, '''!leaderboard''' to view the top 10 users with the largest amount of silly points, or '''!help''' to view a list of commands. | ||

The rocket was a work in progress | The rocket was a work-in-progress. Fox planned to give it the ability to move diagonally, as well as have it preserve the text it passes over instead of deleting it; in the meantime, Fox used the rocket as a tool for erasing spam. | ||

In March of 2025, Fox had attempted to rewrite the rocket script with assistance of a (now discontinued) Node.JS library it had written. While mostly successful, for various reasons unknown to it, the code experienced countless bugs, errors, and other weird behaviors, which was demotivating for it and eventually lead to the discontinuation of progress on both the rocket script and the library altogether. | In March of 2025, Fox had attempted to rewrite the rocket script with assistance of a (now discontinued) Node.JS library it had written.

Fox's main goal is to create a canvas renderer that is about as optimized, quick, and efficient as possible. It also aims to create a better user experience for newcomers and frequent users alike, as well as to expad upon OWOT's existing feature set, mainly through wider user customization, although these are not the primary goals for this project. | Fox's main goal is to create a canvas renderer that is about as optimized, quick, and efficient as possible.
