• Hail, we're RedGuides. We want you to play six (yes, 6!) EverQuest characters at once. We have scripts and a friendly community to help, please join our playstyle and say hello! 👋
  • We've added LLM sections to our Terms & Rules and Resource Rules, for everyone's sanity & in-game safety.

    a. Do not replace your voice with an LLM. This goes for your posts and your scripts. Drafting and editing with a tool is fine, but don't take you out of what you share.
    b. Do not replace your EQ character's voice with an LLM. We don't want scripts that speak over /ooc, /shout or other public channels. This has been an unwritten rule that's kept casino scripts off the site for decades, but we're now compelled to make it clear: keep automated communication private.

    Why Does RG Review Scripts?
    Nearly every LLM-written Lua script we see is making your character do impossible things, and rarely in a way that's beneficial to you. We've seen heavy server hammering, /target over impossible distances when /nav spawn would passively accomplish the same thing, a spawn search that fires 20+ times per second, and other pointless actions that are likely annoying GMs.

    You are welcome to use LLMs as a tool to structure, draft, and edit your work, but please read critically before hitting /lua run
Longbot

Longbot 1.0

Longbot reads your log file as input, and types out information based on that - sad to say it will never be able to link item, because there is no way to type out an item link in Everquest. But it can tell DKP information (grabbed live from your guild's website) manage a channel (supports standard IRC Channel features such as MOTD & banning) and could be extended to a few other tasks!

Is this going to get you banned if you run it?
On the 15th of October, 2007 Longbot was petitioned. The end result was Sony's employees & managers took a look at Longbot's sourcecode, and said it was fine to use it.
Ahh, the sweet beauty of Open Source code? I got NUFFIN to hide. I do usualy end up around the bot as it does it's duty - sometimes when someone says the wrong command, I'll be reading and catch it, and correct it (I don't leave longbot unsupervised - just like you're not supposed to leave a bazaar trader logged in and unsupervised!)
However, for your enjoyment, and for you to decide for yourself, I've got the notes from the petition.
