=== Bots ===
"Bots" are non-human processes that will automatically do things, such as auto kick someone. They sometimes may be OPped to use restricted commands, and sometimes may not be. Please note that they are not actual people and are automated processes/programs. If you have a bot, you need approval before you can use it in the channel. For most approvals, you should try to contact [[User:Seahorseruler|Seahorseruler]]. Approved bots are listed below.
Bots are automated processes that help us run the channel or do tasks. Only approved bots may run on the channel, and they are:
*'''CPWRC''' - A CVN [[Special:RecentChanges|Recent Changes]] monitoring bot that notifies the channel when edits that may be vandalism are made, or if an action is performed that trips one of the filters set. The bot has different filters that can be set to monitor specific users, pages, etc. For a list of commands, see [[Club Penguin Wiki:CPWRC|CPWRC]].
*'''UtilityBot''' - A bot that is on every CPWN IRC channel, which is used by staff and other trusted users to set global IRC bans, send out global notices, etc. A command list is not publicly available.


*SeahorseBot - Operated by [[User:Seahorseruler]]. Includes basic functions, and some games such as trivia.
