official wasteof.money account
hey everyone! little update, we're working really hard on wasteof4. it is a full overhaul of the site, and should feel way faster and look nicer!
if you previously had access to the beta site, you can play around with the v4 alpha at https://alpha.wasteof.money/
we're planning to launch this updated site for everyone in the near future. it will replace the site that’s currently at wasteof.money
feel free to share any feedback, we’d love to hear it!

hey, i’ve implemented some rules about bot accounts. if you have any questions or comments, leave them on the original post below. thanks!
ok botting rules (subject to change, but effective immediately)
bots must be clearly labelled as such, and link to the maintainer’s account in the bio or something. in the future, there might be a bot label.
bots may not perform social actions such as: following, liking, reposting
bots may not post individual posts automatically, with the exception of “daily/weekly/monthly x” accounts, which can post a maximum of one post per day at a fixed time.
bots may not reply to posts/comments unless explicitly triggered:
bots must be triggered by @ mentions, or wall comments on the bot account’s wall.
bots should use the wasteof2 api (api.wasteof.money), as the beta api is subject to change and is designed for internal usage
bots should not poll my server too hard, try using the socket.io api to only perform actions once a mention message is received.
to do this, use a server side socket.io client, and listen for updateMessageCount events. when the count increases, request the unread message list and respond to new mention comments.
it is really cool to see all the unique ways that the api is being used, but let’s try to keep it a little bit controlled. :)
hi everyone!!
i want to make it incredibly clear that creating alternative accounts for the sole purpose of boosting statistics is not allowed.
