@Piggy Do you think if you scale the bot to send a notification on a watched list thread would be a good idea?

Personally, I don't like the way BT notify a news post on a watch list thread via email.

Hi Piggy,

suchmoon quoted one of my posts the other day in connection with a user who copy/pasted it and got banned here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.49950687
I found it by accident when viewing new posts in Meta.
I never received a notification in my thread for this quote, any idea why?

As usual, might be an edit.

Yes that may be the reason.

In any case Pmalek i can double check the message and see if for some reason is not picking up the notification.

No need to check it I think. It was an edit. I was adding a few quotes at a time due to the enormous size of that post.

This is an amazing thing that you've created Piggy! I love it!

Might want to add for the tele section though that '@' isn't necessary when sending the bot your username on tele. Just simply writing the username works. The other way with the '@' doesn't work.

For the part when you contact the telegram bot, is just required to start a conversation/chat with him by writing anything. It doesn't need to be the username.
I should test the case you mentioned if it didn't work though.

I meant to write 'when sending the bot your username on bitcointalk' typed a little too fast and missed that.

Hope that helps!

Somehow I'm JUST running into this. I sure as hope this doesn't make Telegram more unusable than what it is already.
I've switched over to discord already.


If you are interested in the notifications but Telegram is a deal breaker, you can still have your own thread where the notifications are sent to.  Wink
You can find the instructions in the first post.

The bot sees the bbcode, and it allows only one character after your alias.
When someone refers to for instance "LoyceV's data", it doesn't notify me either.

I noticed that I don't get notification if I am mentioned in bolded text like @ovcijisir.

Is that normal or maybe not?

It is normal.

The bot sees the bbcode, and it allows only one character after your alias. [/b] are 4 characters.

Exactly, when the username has some formatting the bot  is not able/set to recognize it. It must be in plain text to work.

Ok, good to know that! Thank you Asche and Piggy!

There is no point for the bot to tell me my bitcointalk nick, I'm usually aware of my own name Smiley (also no name, makes it harder for multi-account-ers) 
...
That's a good idea, I like it, I also know my nick Cheesy

...
I have also edited out the massage or rather part of it. There is no reason for including the fraction of a post, it gives almost no insight and sometimes all we get is an emoticon or just few letters.
...
I also disagree, sometimes I can see that the reply was a kind of shitpost, so there's no need to check that reply.
Bot is fine, thanks for all your effort Piggy!

@Poptok1

Maybe can just be reformatted in a clearer way, keeping the current content. Those few words of the message itself have the purpose to give an idea of the message you are going to find Smiley

I kindly disagree.
In most cases the small part shown tells me if I want to read the post I was mentioned in or not.

Leave that part this way please.

Bobby Fischer was right

@Piggy and the Gang
Can I have this little suggestion taken in to consideration or eventual evaluation by those who use telegram bot?

Above I have shopped (poorly) the message that bot is giving me, in a manner I would like to see it.

This way bot could gain a little extra "productivity". Massage is tight, readable, clear and a bit more anonymous (for eventual bystanders). Other than that, bot is flawless, works like a charm.

I noticed that if someone quote a post that I was quoted I am not notified.

Can this be configured somehow in settings? I would like to be notified of such posts.

It doesn't work that way, it is just set to notify for posts which are quoted directly, where is clear somebody is replying to you.
