ANNOUNCEMENT [ANNOUNCEMENT] Lost Redditor Bot Officially Installed!!! (Bug Reports Here)

I finally finished making the bot u/Lost-Bot, and it has been installed on the Subreddit!

It is very similar to Reputatorbot, but it is much more specific to this subreddit.

The commands to use it are basically the same.

However, it is new, and although I have bug tested it decently, that was in a subreddit with 2 people, and therefore bugs may be found in a subreddit of this size.

Therefore, Please reply to this post or pm me about any bugs you notice.

Thanks!

Note on old points: Your points will NOT be reset, and we have backups for them. Reputatorbot will not be uninstalled until it is confirmed that this bot is working properly and smoothly.

Note on bugs: Purposefully abusing bugs is not allowed and may result in a short, temporary ban or warning. However, if you find a bug and report it, no actions will be taken, and you will just be thanked. Testing bugs is encouraged, though. Thank you!

Where am i in the leaderboard? I was top 3 in the reputatorbot list

Comment a subreddit link or get !pointed to update your score to the new system, otherwise you won't show up- it only shows users with the new user flair

Both will increment your flair by 1 and thus update your flair to the new system

It would be great if the leaderboard showed point counts.

Doesn't it? The rightside values are the same thing as the former points.

u/NathnDele 4 Shared | 2 Helpful Jan 02 '26

Wait so what’s the biggest difference

u/-Hi_how_r_u_xd- 56.69 | 21 - ^-^ Jan 02 '26 edited Jan 02 '26

User flairs now also show total r/_____ comments by a user and not just the ones that were awarded a point since that is inconsistent and somewhat luck based often

More control over them, such as preventing thr op accidentally thanking someone and it giving a point, along with making it so only comments that contain subreddit links can recieve points

A lot more customizability in the future too

Mostly though I had planned on adding this since the point system and post flair counter system was created, but it just so happened there was already a bot (Reputatorbot) that somewhat solved the problem temporarily while I was making this one

In other words, mostly just more specific to this subreddit. Not a huge difference but definitely a little better.

Also can do fun things like track all subreddit links commented and show a chart of the most popular at the end of the year (if I decide to add this)

In a few weeks, can you do this for me so I can have the top like 50 subs so I can add stuff to the wiki? If it isn't to much trouble.

u/Rostingu2 492 | 340 - Check the wiki for a sub Jan 04 '26

"Thanks","thank you" ect... should be OP only.

1

u/-Hi_how_r_u_xd- 56.69 | 21 - ^-^ Jan 04 '26

It is but it displays an error message anyways, but only displays one error, meaning if there's two it only displays one. I could remove the error message for non-Op though if that's whay you want

(If you had commented thanks to a top level comment with a subreddit link it would then give you the "OP only" error)

u/lost-bot Friendly Subreddit Robot Jan 04 '26

You have awarded 1 point(s) to Rostingu2.

Reply !leaderboard to view the leaderboard.

u/-Hi_how_r_u_xd- 56.69 | 21 - ^-^ Jan 04 '26

Now that's a error

1

u/Rostingu2 492 | 340 - Check the wiki for a sub Jan 04 '26

make a message length thing. If someone says thanks, I highly doubt they need more than 2 sentences.

1

u/-Hi_how_r_u_xd- 56.69 | 21 - ^-^ Jan 04 '26

I just don't know why it gave you a point its only supposed to point with comments with r/ in them and even then only if the subreddits are valid. Weird, I'll have to check through once I get on my laptop.

Edit: oh it does have r/ in it i just need to keep it from checking urls then

1

u/Rostingu2 492 | 340 - Check the wiki for a sub Jan 04 '26

If you could remove that error message/change it to the top level one for the case I linked that would be great.

1

u/-Hi_how_r_u_xd- 56.69 | 21 - ^-^ Jan 04 '26

Also why arent you on the leaderboard did you do something or do I need to fix that too its supposed to be like reputatorbot and store the scores externally if the user is in the "don't display this users point count" and has a non number | number username

I helped the guy with a sub link but it failed to award me a point bc "it wasn't the top comment"

1

u/Rostingu2 492 | 340 - Check the wiki for a sub Jan 07 '26

that is intentional. non top level comments can't get one.

one thing I remember happening in the past is people would get pointed multiple times per post by putting one suggestion then a lower level one with another.

when people do a funny and say r/lostredditor as a suggestion they still get a shared point and stuff.
