How about xml/txt feeds available to other bots? Reason: Bots have to parse your HTML pages for information (unless they use rscript feeds which now have "direct" access to your database). Personally, I won't use rscript feeds, though, because that is a round-trip between 2 servers. Background: I myself am a bot coder, currently used by two skiller clans which some might know by BigSister. I never used code by anyone else and all the parsers are 100% made by me. (The bot is also currently feeding the RScript tracker database using their SOAP webservice from a past agreement we made.) I've used tip.it for monster and items in the past, but I've changed my parsers to use another fan site and all the data that doesn't come from the own bot database is explicity stated in the output (it has always been like that). I'm planning to move my parsers back to tip.it for obvious reasons, though. Kind regards, _aLfa_
