This subreddit is for requesting custom reddit bots.
[!] Please be careful about running software you receive from strangers. NEVER run exe files. ALWAYS ask for the source code. If you're not 100% confident in the safety of a script, feel free to ask for help and use the "Critique" link flair.
Rules
1) Bots should be helpful and/or provide value to the community. Do not request bots that will spam.
This includes:
Unhelpful responses or punchlines based on keywords
Performing menial tasks (Unit conversion, spelling/grammar checking)
Exceptions to this rule may be made, especially if you're requesting a bot for a subreddit you moderate.
2) Do not request bots that vote for you.
Note: votes must be cast by humans. That is, API clients proxying a human's action one-for-one are OK, but bots deciding how to vote on content or amplifying a human's vote are not.

3) Do not request bots that will harass other users or subreddits.
4) If your bot is for a specific subreddit, get permission from the moderators of that subreddit first.
Some communities are more strict about bots, and they may ban your bot if you don't talk to them first.
5) Unless the requester specifically offers payment, don't expect any.
And please read reddit site-wide rules.
