What is a Second Life Bot

In order to maximize our understanding of their benefits, we need to understand what is a bot and what are its advantages.

What is a bot?

A Bot is exactly the same as an avatar in SL, like other real people. He is dressed, shod (wearing shoes), can use AO's (animation over-rider) and any other attachments. Anything that a normal avatar can wear so can a Bot.

The only difference is that it is not run by a real person, instead it is managed by a computer. Depending on the type of bot it will behave differently, and it can imitate a real person (especially if the bot is equipped with an auto-responder).

To create a bot you make it as you would a normal avatar (Add on clothing, skin, hair etc).

SmartBots - Second Life's largest bot hosting provider

• When you close your client, your avatar goes offline. Since you are offline you will not be able to communicate with Second Life after you log out therefore resulting in lost time.

• Some operations in SL can only be performed by text, such as: a group invite, sending a notice and monitoring group chat.

• Plus, if you plan to organize communication with customers, they will be much more comfortable with talking to an avatar.

Bots help in addressing these issues. It performs around the clock and performs based on how you have programmed it.

SmartBots Service allows for the bots to be hosted on our servers and also provides the interface to program your bot allowing you to save time and money. Bots provided by SmartBots are online around the clock 24/7. When there are problems in the server (eg a Sim restart) the bot automatically returns to its last location at the earliest opportunity.

Through a browser you can change or modify the notice, sets the time of their distribution, and you can talk to your group or to individual users, to prevent and remove offenders from the group without going to the client.

Live Examples

Clubs

Assume that you own (ovnerom) club. Therefore, you may need four types of boats, look at them closer.

• First - bot administrator. He stands at the entrance or in any other place, nicely dressed, and invites visitors to a group of your club, the group sends notifications about the upcoming party, sends it through advertising and you can communicate with others or to them without going to the client;
• The following type - a boat-DJ. It automatically recognizes the tracks, put to music and talking to people;
• The following are a couple of nice bots denserov, which the owner of the club dance in the appropriate places, attracting people;
• And the last type of boat for the club - it's a boat-bartender. He stands behind the bar counter, the client calls choose a drink from the extensive menu and pours for the price specified by the owner (for example for 1L).

Once again, that all boats are in the club around the clock, will never go to another club and even "dead hours", which is at any club, they continue to work for you, creating the necessary atmosphere. You must agree not always good to be in an empty club, and in the company, the more people who are already in the club, the more will visit more and in addition boat administrator if you specify it, the group continues to invite people to give you a competitive advantage compared to other clubs.

Shop Owners

There are so-called model boats. You put a bot model in selling clothes, he defile the buyers and when you click on the bot, it is proposed to purchase favorite outfit. Ideally using it along with the bot administrator.

But, of course, this is only the simplest examples. The bot can be used under almost any needs that customers are demanding. Team SmartBots gladly explain how to take advantage of already existing services more fully, and our programmers will make you a bot on your individual needs.
