TheGreatHatsby bot

[tora]

Ok. Earlier in the day, I was messaged on my aim by this. It's called TheGreatHatsby. Although the more specific little bot thinger is listed under Coho bots in that article. It was really weird. It hit me and this random ass girl I didn't even know from Adam's house cat. We were both very confused. Here's the convo.

(4:24:18 PM) selectivecoho TheGreatHatsby looks to start conversations between two random people through AOL Instant Messenger (AIM). The Bot hides its identity by changing all instances of the user’s names into it’s own name. So if you see a chat log of the conversation every time a user mentioned his/her screen name the Bot would change it to the Bot’s name.
(4:25:03 PM) selectivecoho apparently you can make it stop though
(4:25:12 PM) selectivecoho if you type $optout
(4:25:36 PM) tensaiyuushi $optout
(4:25:36 PM) selectivecoho OPERATOR: Are you sure you want to opt-out? If you do, you will *never* be contacted again on the account "TensaiYuushi". There is *no way* to opt back in and undo this.

If you are sure, type "$optout D7A3". Remember, this is permanent and irreversible!
