Mostly built for the spring lobby server (TASServer), these are chatbots!
The spring lobby server has global server wide bans and a bot called Chanserv which provides moderation controls to channel operators at a channel level. Sadly channel bans were not one of those features.

Cookiebot distributed cookies amongst other things. It provided the maplink command, and cookie cannons and cookie bazookes etc etc
The days of writting bots like banbot or cookiebot had long passed, and I had a large lobby project to pull code from. Having separated out the core components of my lobby into a separate library, I sought to create a bot as an example. This bot would be fully Object Oriented and show how easy to write it was. All in all the bot took 20 minutes to write build and test.
Modbot was created to track the logging in and out of moderators and administrators on the spring server.
Shortly after Slurbot was introduced, a new channel appeared which became rather popular. The channel was called #vulgar and had a small but primitive bot that enforced the rules. There was only one rule, and it said: All messages must contain a swear word.
All messages must contain a swear word.
Having introduced Banbot, a request was put out by the moderators of the lobby that it would be useful if they had a bot that would notify them of slurs in the #main channel that held the most users.
