How do I write coding for a bot?

Help needed in making a bot.

[Chris Silverwind]

Hey,
I would greatly appreciate some help. I am trying to make a special bot that will do 'bumps' on a website. I looked at the websites rules and regulations and nothing against bots. Also there was nothing against 'bumping' a thread as long as it was not flooding the role-playing thread.

A bump is simply a post that says bump on it.

This probably seems ridiculous. Also it gives away I'm not an adult, but a teen. Though help would be much obliged.

Also what program do I need to write this in so that it is an exe program? I’m very new to this sort of thing and I have no book to show me how to do this.

The command lines that need to be written in the bot would have to be able to do this sequence.
Log in with the name and password provided. Go to the directed link from there. Then click the posting button, type bump.. And then submit. With a delay of 45 seconds before going through the posting process again.

Your first problem is that bots can't type - you have to emulate the information being submitted/received using Headers instead. I'd start with something like 'wget'.
