MODERATORS
If you build it, they will come ๐
We are living proof of that. We have the #1, #2, #3 most commented threads ever on kbin on m/MMA for our threads. People just show up.
Is there a github for the bot. We are looking for something like it on /c/football and /c/mls
Yes, I'm working on open sourcing it, it's just pretty hack-y (I'm not a python expert...) and very NBA-specific but I'll ping you when I do!
Summer League threads are usually pretty low volume even on r/nba. Unfortunately, we missed the big-name free agency and trade deadlines to foster discussion, so the real foundation for this community will probably be opening week (pre-season is also low volume or a bunch of low-effort overreactions anyways).
True. It also hurts that teams are protecting their top ten picks after a few games. I would have liked to see more Wembanyama minutes.
Thanks to everyone who put this together. Iโm sure it was a lot of hard work, but I think I can speak for the majority of the community that this is something that is extremely valuable to fostering growth over time.
Great work. Excited to see the community grow and this will help!
There must be an incorrect loop condition as the bot is currently spamming /c/nba every 2 mins with a new pinned post.
Please fix and clean out the old posts!!
It stopped doing it but please delete the posts it makes a bunch of sort views unusable if you are subscribed to this community
yep, sorry, that's what we did
Awesome! Can't wait for this community to overtake r/nba. Great work, and thanks!
Great work! What bot is this, though? Could use one to post a daily thread on our community.

I'm working on open sourcing it as we speak, and already added support for a single team so it should be ready in a few days
Amazing!
Suggesting: Create a twitter bot that posts Woj/Charania tweets with >10K likes
I've thought about it but there are two issues - one is that Twitter (Elon...) just locked their API so the bot would need to use some hack to scrape the twitter pages (not impossible though). The other is that like you said, we don't want to post every Woj/Shams tweet but by the time the important ones reach 10k likes (or a similar filter), someone probably would post them here already so we'd be posting stake tweets...
not sure I have a solution for the 2nd problem, happy to hear opinions :)
Thank you for the explanation! Regarding the double-posting problem, I think that a check if tweet is already posted should be enough in most cases.
So all game threads and post game are automatic, or we need to send a commend to the bot to prompt one?
all the threads are automatic, the Bot just keeps running all the time and updates them
