What would seem obvious?

If you want it converted to PHP, I'd be willing to help out there. Perhaps in a UG thread or PM or wherever you'd want to share the source.
I was actually talking about running it off a VPS or something directly through a screen. I did this with many of my old bots and left em on the backend of my servers to do this. I should have a spare server I can use for it when I feel like working on the program to adapt to server usage as opposed to user usage.
If you provide a version that can easily be run on a server, I can set it up on 3-4, assuming it didn't take much managing from myself (i.e. if I have to create accounts every few hours, go in to each server and update a text file), I'd probably give up after a day or so.

I'm considering throwing it onto one of my servers and having a front end where people can add bots to the list itself (it will do a verification check beforehand), and setting it up so that each account will send out a referral ID depending on one supplied when they give the account. Not really sure if my server is strong enough to run it, I think it starts to timeout if I do 25-50 HTTP Threads. For this I would probably only need to use around 5-10 threads. Bandwidth should be negligible. I haven't done the math but it should only come out to like 2-3gb in a month. One issue with my server is it doesn't seem to support Tor which I only found out when I actually needed to use it.
I'm bored so I'm gonna start work on it.
Edit: Fuck, gotta downgrade it to Python 2.
Or you could just port this as a CGI script or something. Idk. It all sounds like a hassle that isn't very much worth it.
Alternatively you could add LG auth in the script that checks the given member's post count and checks for sufficient credentials.

Not a hassle, it can easily be changed to be used in multiple of ways. It really comes down to whether I want it spread out between users on the site using it, and getting rewards for it's use (which new users who come here would then start using), or having a server set up to handle it all and have the user reward as a kind of secondary after thought.
One central server = one central IP? I think from memory last time I did this they just blocked our IP pretty quickly.

I've never had them block an IP on me + I'd use Tor if the server it's on supports it.

You could always make an interface for him to edit the accounts file.

Maybe you could set it up to PM whoever is on the account's friend list ("check out this cool site" or whatever), and then let users submit accounts they hack, thus rewarding them for providing accounts (sender/receiver) by including their referral link in the PM.

I'll release the source to the UG sometime today or tomorrow. It's literally just a single URL, wasn't very hard to find, then we can all just use it however we see fit.
I'll PM you the URL in a bit, though really unsure if the URL should be open sourced since it could lead to quicker patching.
