Another concern. What if we quote a tip like I did above. If I sent the scan command, would it see me as the originating source of those tips, now that I have quoted them? That would be something that would need to be fixed.

Accepted the tip. Never received PPC before too! I'll make a VirCurEx wallet for it. Waiting for confirmation.

Great. I love this. Smiley +cointip cadmium 2000 uBTC

Do we get a confirmation and how often are the posts crawled?

you have to pm scan command to me, since the bot only crawls on that order.

Tipee does not have to sign up. Once he accepts a tip request, he'll be signed up automatically, and be able to withdraw to his personal addresses, or he can use it to tip other members.

> How do we verify you won't just run away with our Bitcoin once we deposit them?

I don't have a good answer, but I do believe in Karma.

It's running on one of my servers, with a system to backup db and wallets in case the host is screwed up.
I also have thought to give the private keys back to the users, in case stuff hits fan.

Yes. And to prevent duplication, it stores records of post-id that it has processed.

Karma.... other than that it looks like your system is really set. If you do scam, word flies here lol. Try setting up a reputation thread on the Off-Topic board as people use your tip service, but other than that it's solid! Nice work! I'll use it.

Nice job working on the script though! You deserve a bounty! I recently talked about a bitcointip bot, and this is the best method to do it without modifying the form directly. My only concerns are:

How do we verify you won't just run away with our Bitcoin once we deposit them?
What ensures your bot will be online 24/7?
Is the bot hosted, or is it a simple script running on your computer?
If it does run from your computer, is it on 24/7?
If whatever hosts the script is down when a tip request is sent and the scan command has been sent, will the scan be processed when the script comes back online? (Make sure you have a verification system so that the bot itself knows when a tip was sent, as that will prevent tip duplication from the script being offline.)

The long waiting of reddit bitcointip bot to bitcointalk forum has come to an end.

Service is free to use at your own risk, as always.

Current supported currencies are: BTC, LTC, PPC and FTC

PM cadmium with the following commands on the subject:

sign up

info - to get deposit addresses, balance

cointip - examples
Code:
cointip cadmium 1 BTC
cointip cadmium 1 mLTC
cointip cadmium 1.22 uBTC
cointip cadmium 1 sBTC --- 1 satoshi
cointip cadmium 1.5 mPPC

withdraw with the message body containing

Tipping can also be in a post for example:

"Thanks for fixing my PHP script, +cointip John 0.25 btc . And thank you for such service +cointip cadmium 1 mPPC"

Then you have to pm cadmium with the subject of scan, the bot will scan your last 20 posts, and process tipping requests.

*Update: I just made the bot to crawl on its own for every 10 mins, so that you don't need to send the "scan" command. You can still send it though, if you don't want to wait.*

*Added a new command

subject masstip with the message body containing your cointip list - example

Code:
cointip memberA 1 BTC
cointip memberB 1 mLTC
cointip memberC 0.5 uPPC

Note

* Standard transaction fee will be subtracted from the withdrawing amount (currently BTC 0.0001, LTC 0.02, PPC 0.01, FTC 0.01).

* When request tipping, the tippee has an option to accept or reject (by following the instruction in the pm). Tip request will be expired after a week.
** Fund will be transferred at the point tippee chooses to accept. It will not be held by tip request.
** Which means you can tip 1 BTC to 10 people with your balance of 1 BTC. Whoever accepts first will take it.
** Or you can withdraw your fund before a tippee claims

* Required 3 confirms depositing BTC, 6 for LTC and PPC, 10 for FTC

* Don't feel guilty to tip someone with 1 uBTC or less because it does not get into the blockchain until withdrawal, which has to be more than transaction fee.

Disclaimer
* Still in gamma state, there could be some glitches although I'll try my best not to lose you fund.
