If you frequent BHW, you've probably seen me posting about all manner of things, especially programming. I have a ton of bot ideas and the means to sell them. I just don't have the time to make them all. Why? Because making a bot is easy for me. Setting it up for use by tons of people is the hard part. To do that, you have to program a web interface and then integrate that with a subscription system. That's a lot of work but now I have my own framework for it I coded from scratch and that works.
The problem is that for each bot I make, I have to alter my panel for it. That and I simply have too many bot ideas. These two tasks combined are too much work for one person to keep pumping out at the rate I'd like to. For this reason, I'd like to do a JV with one or more people.
Skills You Must Have
- You have to know Javascript (No beginners please).
- You have to be familiar with Node.
- Version control such as Mercurial (hg).
I can take care of the hard part. You might be thinking to yourself "I should just do this myself" and to that I would say: Good luck. Setting up a job queue that scales, user interface, and payment system that all work together is really annoying and takes a good deal of time. Even once you have that you have to keep making different variations of the panel and job queue. There's also something attractive about a think tank of bot coders.
The Rules
- All the bots you create using the Think Tank's methodology will then be property of the Think Tank. If you all of the sudden decide to start selling a bot on your own that you obviously made with the help of the group and/or our code, there will be controversy.
- Half the profits from a bot you code go to you. The other half goes to me. This is a good deal. My job is a lot harder than yours.
- If you start a bot but don't complete it, you won't be entitled to proceeds.
- You are responsible for half of any advertising costs (Such as the BHW Marketplace fee).
- Whenever we decide to start a new bot, we will post what it is in this thread. That way, there's no ambiguity regarding who was involved in what. I'm currently about to release an SEO CTR bot and that has nothing to do with this.
I don't know how many people around here are up to this sort of task. At least a few I hope. If you want to do this and you're ready to take this to the next level, reply to this thread letting me know what your skills are and why you think you're a good fit. Not a resume, just a decent description.
