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 would (invisibly) listen to incoming messages sent in Global chat for as long as the script was active.

In March of 2025, | 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 fox, the code experienced countless bugs, errors, and other weird behaviors, which was demotivating for fox and eventually lead to the discontinuation of progress on both the rocket script and the library altogether. | ||
