How everything works
The whole manual on one page. Skim the chapters or read top to bottom - first-time setup takes about fifteen minutes.
Plans: Basic and Pro
Zorabot keeps your Sythe threads on top, watched and priced. You run it from this site and from the Zorabot bot in your private channel on our community server. No bot of your own needed.
A bot under your own name and avatar, in your own server: vouches, confirmation DMs, automatic backups and every command where your team works. Create it once (guide), paste the token - we run it.
Getting started, in order
- 1Get a license
Staff grants it after your order; you get an invite to the community server and your own private channel there.
- 2Sign in and add your server
Sign in here with Discord, then Add your server from the dashboard.
- 3Pro only: create and invite your bot
Create the bot (step-by-step), paste the token, invite it with the one-click link. It comes online within a minute and creates
#zorabot(commands) and#zorabot-logs(what went out under your name)./bindpoints any of them at a channel of your choice. - 4Connect Sythe
Save your username and password on the Sythe tab (encrypted, always) and press Log in. With 2FA on, the panel asks for a code the moment Sythe does.
- 5Add threads, switch autobump on
Paste your thread links on the Bumping tab, write your default message, flip autobump. Done - every thread is bumped the moment its cooldown opens.
Bumping
Sythe allows one bump per thread per 4 hours - that floor is built in, nothing can post around it. A run posts to every enabled thread that is due, with a natural pause between threads.
Hands-off: each thread bumped as soon as it may be. The setting almost everyone wants.
Bump now on the site or /bump in Discord. Window not open yet? Book it with one button - publicly, with a cancel button, so the whole team sees the plan.
One default message (BBCode, Sythe's own editor) plus an optional per-thread override. /bump_message edits it from Discord.
Lines all threads up on one clock so they come due together. Only ever delays - never bumps early.
Sythe accounts & sessions
Credentials are stored encrypted at rest and never shown again. A login captures a session that typically lasts months; what ends it is Sythe itself, and when that happens you are alerted and one fresh login fixes it.
A code is asked only when Sythe asks, and the setting follows what Sythe actually did. Device trust lasts ~30 days - you are warned before a human is needed again.
Add extras and assign jobs: who bumps, who vouches, who sends DMs, who edits prices. Unassigned means the main account.
Tick watch DMs on any account: a new Sythe message pings your alerts channel with sender and subject. We never open the message itself.
/sythe_account adds, lists and signs accounts in. Passwords are typed in a popup, never in the chat box.
Vouches Pro
A scenario ("Gold sold", "Service completed") holds up to ten wordings; posting picks one at random, so a page of your vouches never reads like a script. Write {customer} anywhere and it becomes the thread starter's name.
Pick the scenario, paste the thread link. Zorabot checks the thread is in the Vouches Forum (posting elsewhere gets posts removed) and asks first if you already vouched there in the last 24 hours.
A vouch that lands is announced in the channel with a link straight to the post, and recorded under Posted vouches - so the history answers "did we already vouch for him?".
On the site, or in Discord with /vouch_template_scenario and /vouch_template_message.
Confirmation DMs Pro
/confirmation_dm snapshots the conversation, fills your template and shows a preview. Nothing is sent until a human presses Send.
A Sythe PM under your name with a private link to a read-only copy of the ticket, drawn exactly like Discord.
Subject, body, who signs it, plus variables for names, IDs, your managers and the snapshot link. Edit on the DM tab or with /dm_template; a typo'd variable stays visible instead of vanishing.
Watchers & alerts
/sythe_watch or the Watchers tab: hear about replies in Discord without sitting on the forum. Your own replies are skipped by default.
Per kind: on or off, where it lands (alerts, logs or the command channel) and whether it pings a role.
Everything Zorabot does under your name - bumps, vouches, price edits, DMs - lands in #zorabot-logs, success and failure alike.
GP prices
OSRS buy/sell and RS3 buy/sell, each linked to one of your price threads.
Zorabot never rewrites your post. During setup it learns exactly where your price sits (you paste a one-off marker) and from then on replaces only that number.
Setup once on the GP tab; after that, update from the site or with /gp_price and posts change within a minute. If an edit moves the price line, the slot stops rather than guessing - and alerts you.
Access: who may do what
You. Everything, here and in Discord.
Full partners: dashboard access and every command. Added on the Access tab.
Your managers: the everyday commands, no dashboard, no settings. Add a person or a whole Discord role - /authorize and /deauthorize work from Discord too.
Multiple servers
Link your shops and management server: one Sythe account, one set of templates, one log across all of them - and each linked server can vouch and DM under its own Sythe name.
Post it while your server is healthy; members who click it once can be pulled into a rebuilt server automatically if the worst ever happens.
Linking, unlinking and per-server overrides live on the Discord servers tab on purpose - not a thing to do from a chat box.
Backups Pro
Channels, roles, permissions, messages, images, emojis, bans - your buddy backs it all up on a schedule, per server.
Open a simulation: a read-only replica of your server, drawn like Discord, straight from the snapshot.
Back up now or /backup before a risky change. Manual runs are capped at 10 per week - the automatic rhythm keeps you safe regardless. Want more? Ask us; a higher frequency is something we can offer.
The newest snapshots keep their images, older ones keep everything except images, and each server has its own storage budget. Restoring, should you ever need it, is done by us - fast and in parallel.
Discord commands
Pro: everything below lives on your own buddy bot. Basic: the bumping, status, Sythe and GP commands also work on the Zorabot bot in your channel on our community server (add server: if you run several).
owner = owner or co-owner,
team = also your authorized users and roles.
