The usefulness of a script:

The benefits depend on the script. Each script has its own method and interpretation. Here are the main options:

• you can create your own greeting or topic.
• you can change the hammercodes at any moment.
• you can decide at any moment who can have a gold hammer or a brown one.
• you can ban other people and is you whish permanent.
• the roombot can generate text on command.
• you can keep the chathistory to see if someone is new in your room or someone has changed the nickname or to see when the chatter was last in your room.
• you can log the chattext en keep them on your computer.
• you can use the age-checker to ensure your target group .

And so there are plenty of opportunities and benefits. The more extensive the script, the more you can manage the room.



The disadvantages of a script:

The disadvantages of a script is a matter of taste and how you look at something.

• Some people find it annoying when every an advertisement displayed in the room every 15 minutes.
• Some people find it annoying to be kicked by the bot (p.e. age-checker)
• In case of wrong roomsetting, it could be that the room is inaccessible.
• When adapting the script without knowledge, you risk that the environment can be the unstable. You risk a ban on the overloading of a chatserver.

Again its best to call more points. The most important thing is: the less knowledge the more disadvantages when using a script.
