This isn't really a suggestion, but telling what we need. Role-Plays have a bad habit of dragging on into the late night, early morning hours, especially when we have a good RP going. A few users, such as myself, find it hard to keep up with a lot of RP, and we can't exactly record RP during RP, Users participating and doing this tend to miss out on information. With a chat bot recording the chat, accurate records of RP can be recorded. This solves confusion and conflicts regarding what happens within the RP and helps users write in their own words what their character(s) did during said RP, without having to copy and paste half-baked records by someone barely able to keep up with the RP. This will also give a good record on where we left off. All too often users forget where the last RP ended, and a chat bot solves this as well as the things listed above.

Now I've recieved a little negativity regarding a chat bot. What they seem to think is that the bot is controlled by staff and monitered 24/7 and that we'll be condemed for our vulgar nature. I'm telling you, this is completely wrong. The chat bot will be mine to control, mine to monitor. It is not going to hack into your computer and do crazy stuff. Your paranoia is ungrounded. There is literally nothing to worry about.

"It's an invasion of privacy" It only records main chat, not PMs. And Main Chat is far from private as anyone can get on and see what you're talking about.

"I don't want a bot watching my every move" The bot will only be present during RP. If needed outside RP will be up to me and the other admins.

"I dun care, we dun need it" Care to explain in full detail as a counter argument as to why we don't need one? The last thing we need is people falling behind RP and failing to record accurate information of the RP. This can lead to arguments.
