Hello, I'm trying to write a xtremetop100 vote bot. I have a moderate amount of programming experience and some with working on bots for websites but I'm struggling with this one. If you're just here to take code, be aware it doesn't work and is not well structured. I'm hoping a member here can...

Testing V2 of my viewer bot now. So far only limitation I've found is having a reliable proxy list and a decent router (they tend to not appreciate thousands of connections being opened lol) but actual bandwidth/cpu/ram requirements are stupidly low. Currently doing 6,000 stable viewers off a...

thanks for all the nice comments :)

Have used bhw in the past but never been active here. I'm a 24 year old programmer and full time streamer. Enjoying the community so far and the resources available. Saves a ton of time finding working proxies for projects ahhaah.

For twitch to show the connection you only need to send one web request every 10-30 seconds. It's quite easy to do thousands of 'viewers' from a single computer given a decent selection of anon proxies. No need for a thread per viewer. Just a single web request sent periodically so twitch...

Each time you trigger the request you assign it a random proxy. These proxies can be selected from a list or you can use a constantly tested/updated database of proxies. You can also add support for tracking how many connections are currently being used per proxy to act as a rate limiter to...

Appreciate it. Been using them last few days and worked well.

No, you will be tracked pretty much regardless of what you do if they really want to find you. Even if you secure your connection you still have to worry about the actual information you are sending which could be used to track you (EG running through a good series of anon proxies/vpns wont...

My guess is that the twitch page has some amount of protection to stop basic javascript style exploits. As we've mentioned before, you're better off using httprequest/sockets and write a basic IRC bot. Will let you handle chat MUCH better.

The programming required to make a working bot is pretty simple but there's some decent legwork involved. The problem with selling or releasing twitch bots is that A: It has everyone then as your competition B: It gets your exploits fixed by twitch C: It's not generally worth the selling...

That error means that the element doesn't exist. You're trying to pull the element with ID ember447 and then perform an action on it but if ember447 doesn't exist then you will get an error. OP: You'd be better just writing a basic IRC bot. You can connect to, view and type in the chat of...

I do not wish to hijack the OPs thread but if you're looking for live views, I'm looking for people to test my own bot on as well. First test had 4,000 constant viewers. Working on harvesting a larger proxy list and improving program efficiency now so I'd love for some targets to test with.

Twitch view bots are relatively simple to code if you are willing to put in the time. Personally I coded one lastnight and with a few minutes of proxy scraping was able to boost a channel by 4,000 viewers. Next I'm gonna be adding chat functionality to it so it's less obvious it's a bot doing...
