⚠️ Unplanned Maintenance

Our host is doing an unplanned maintenance on the dedicated node/dc that our bots are hosted on.
All our services are now down.

Ultra rare (at least we haven't seen this happening ever) and no timeframe is provided on this, so we have no workaround but to sit and wait.

Downtime: 1h 36m
Edit: Server is up!

『 ✳️ Major Improvements: 』

• Filters now do not reply to anyone
Triggering filters now sends a message to the group but does not reply to the user-triggered or the user replied to.
We gave a lot of thought and this is the best solution moving forward.

• Fixed /rules reply pointing to target user
If you reply to someone with /rules then Saitama will reply to the user you replied to with output.

• Added last seen to afk
Afk now shows when it saw you last

『 🐞 Fixes and Improvements: 』
• Fixed a deploy bug
• Fixed a typo in the anime module in the results
• Do not show bots in /admins
• Fixed sqlalchemy.exc.NoSuchModuleError
• Edited /start response a little
• Improved help section
• Disabled black workflow and use pre-commits instead
• Comments in config
• Join logger now shows the bot added when you add it, before it showed the user joined which made no sense
• Skip logging on/off events for chatbot
• Fixes for lockdown command
• Added some more bugs to fix later

『 🚮 Removed/Dropped Stuff: 』
• Removed Docker support
• Removed Heroku support or any references to Heroku
• Removed RSS and maths modules

『 ⚠️Warnings: 』
• @dragsama's social life needs more head pats
• @dank_as_fuck needs better gifs

『 ✨Other Important stuff: 』
• Increased coffee intake to avoid nonsensical reverts
• Trying to work on proper sleep schedules

Pull request #366

How we deal with spammers - Cinematic Trailer

By @OnePunchSupport

💬 @Intellivoid has shut down their chatbot api permanently.

What does this means for Saitama?
Simply put, Saitama's chatbot/AI will now no longer function, we might even remove the module in next update since its useless now.

Note:
Please do not come to our support chat asking why.
We do not own the api.
This notice affects any bot/userbot that was using coffeehouse chatbot api.

🔻Notice regarding /stickers command:

/stickers command will not work as combot added cloudflare to their stickers catalogue page.
This is already fixed worked around in the development release.

TLDR: /stickers command wont work until next update.

Next update sneak peek. its bonk time
Will also redo the ban/warn panel design.

I noticed that we missed out on the /help command mention on start text and no button callback for help was added

Next update we will fix the start menu and include help as a button.
Sorry about that.

✳️ Side Trivia: Why not to use a random new bot by random person?

So recently someone got the bot token of a fork (not mentioning which bot) and then logged in, banned plenty members from groups using the token.
The bot owner gave the token willingly to one of its devs and the dev abused it and tried to take hostage asking to free up usernames.

This is just one example of why you should not run random forks if you don't know what you are doing and for users and group admins, please avoid adding random wannabe new bots in your groups just cause someone guy comes
and says "hey, would you add my bot? i will give you special features"

So comes the question of what to use?
Best is to run your own bot and never share any access/token to anyone unless you absolutely trust them.

Not a techie? what's the alternative?
For those who have anime eccentric groups can always ask us at @OnePunchSupport to let them use @SaitamaRobot

For anyone else we recommend @AllMightRobot or @KigyoRobot (Kigyo is also hosted on same server as Saitama so your members, messages are safe from harm)

✳️ Small July Update

Translation module:

Saitama is down, idk why, I'm gonna sleep.
Good night.

Edit: this was resolved, tho it still did go down today as well, something seems up with telegram as phoenix and other bots also went down and they are not hosted on our server

So just a heads up that our go lang rewrite is making progress.
Feds are now in progress which would means most of the modules would be at a useable level soon.

This message is a heads up for those who wanted multi lang on Saitama because they will get it on the go lang version so we will need all your help to translate the bot in various languages.

Look forward to the new Saitama
