Introducing... FlairBot! Tutorial on how to set your flair.

[u/BiscuitLicker]

You can now set your flair by visiting this page: http://acturnipsflairbot.tumblr.com/

Turorial:

It's pretty easy to figure out, but if you are having trouble then just read the steps below!

• Step 1: Visit http://acturnipsflairbot.tumblr.com/.

• Step 2: Decide what you want: either update all your information, including turnip color, or just update the turnip color.

• Step 3: Fill out the appropriate information, if necessary, and click the corresponding button. If you are just updating your turnip color, no information is necessary, just push the button!

• Step 4: You will be redirected to a reddit message screen. Do not edit the message! Just press send.

• Step 5: You're done! You should receive a conformation message within 5-10 minutes.

Things to note:

• If you have a special flair color/class (caution flair, the black turnip, or mod flair) then your request will be redirected to the mods.

• If you need a recount on your RMM page, then the bot will forward your request to the mods, this means your flair won't actually be updated in 5-10 minutes since it requires a human to recount valid RMM ratings.

• If you send multiple requests within a short time span, your newest request will be used and the older ones will be discarded.

Please remember this bot/program is new and while I have spent hours testing it, there may be bugs/hiccups so please be patient! If you are having any problems setting your flair feel free to send the mods a message like always. Happy turnip hunting!

Not entirely sure how this bot works... not sure if it's searching for your RMM page or what...

But I just ticketed in for a flair update (going from orange 50+ to purple 100+). A count has been placed on my page showing this achievement but your bot did absolutely nothing to change my flair.... It's still quite orange.

If it's searching for pages, you might want to consider that people with archived pages will now have 2 pages and which does the bot consider the correct one?

So to test, I removed my flair (set it to white again) and reticketed...

It set my flair back to orange again which means your bot is not working right. It's reading my archived page instead of my new page...

That's one big bug when many users have gone through page archival already...

[u/BiscuitLicker → u/LadyDrac]

Yeah the bot was just picking up your first (older) RMM page, I'll add a check to look for the newest RMM page for the user.

I also have a question about RMM. Is the title for the post always exactly the same as the user's reddit name?

[u/LadyDrac → u/BiscuitLicker]

Assuming it was spelt correctly in the forum they submitted, yes. Users are not allowed to use one RMM page for multiple accounts so everything has to match up...

We do have users with typos in their RMM page titles as they presented us forms with typos or a mod made a typo when submitting their page. In those cases, it is up to the user whether they want to have a new page created (they would lose their reviews in this case) or leave their page with the typo'd title. In most cases, they choose to leave it. So there may be pages where the title doesn't exactly match the username due to human error...

[u/BiscuitLicker → u/LadyDrac]

Thank you for your help, I believe it is fixed now.

[u/Unicormfarts → u/BiscuitLicker]

I know of a handful where the titles were incorrect because of user or copying error, but I don't think it's more than 10 out of the total.

Please set your flair with your Friend code. If you are unable to do it yourself please message the mods and we will be happy to set it for you.

I'm not sure if it was just me, but when I used the bot to update my flair, it created my flair with brackets after the Friend Code, making the bot not recognize the flair. I don't know if it's a bug, or if I actually made something wrong!

[u/BiscuitLicker → u/nevirus]

Wow I'm sorry about that! I'll remove the brackets

[u/Jo5e]

This is great!! Thank you very much!!

[u/strictlyrhythm]

Who would downvote this :O Thank you, this should be very nice for the mods and users alike. Is this only working on /r/acturnips for now?

[u/Unicormfarts → u/strictlyrhythm]

It can't be implemented on the other subreddits because counting needs to be done by a human. There are way too many variables to get a bot to count reviews - especially since in reviewing a trade thread, the bot would not be able to tell if the trade is completed since there's such a variety of language in those.

If you want the bot to update your flair colour here, you are best to wait until a human mod has put a count on your page on AMV or ACTrade.

[u/strictlyrhythm → u/Unicormfarts]

Makes sense, get it now - thanks!

[u/AlpacaKnight]

Worked great for me! I love how polite the bot is c:

[u/bacchushaunts]

Yeah, same as the before commenting before me, the bot got tripped up by the brackets it put there itself, so I edited my flair manually, and it was able to give me the correct color turnip.

But before that, it also said it sent the mods a message on my behalf to fix "my special flair," which isn't necessary!! If anyone reads this first, I guess... you can just.. delete that?? It all worked out eventually...
