User:The Cheatbot

From Homestar Runner Wiki

BOT This user is a wiki bot.

This bot's favorite character is The Cheat.

This bot's favorite email is technology.

This bot enjoys doing Gnome work.

The Cheatbot is a bot used by It's dot com. Currently, it can delete pages and has very sophisticated search and replace capabilities. If you have a task that The Cheatbot can handle, why not post it on the talk page? Who knows, maybe it will even get done!

The Cheatbot was built from scratch as a MediaWiki extension. It is controlled by a special page and interacts with the database directly (thus, compared to the way most wiki bots operate, it really does cheat).
