BisqBot

BisqBot is a robot, a machine programmed in a certain way.
He operates in the IRCNet.

There exists also another bot (game movie helper tool) called "BisqBot", but it has nothing to do with this bot.

BisqBot exists to provide daily-useful tools for his creator, Bisqwit.
Most of the tools are accessible to everyone in IRCNet, given that the usage does not cause too much load in the server BisqBot runs on.
BisqBot also helps in the administration of certain IRC channels.

Some details here.

• First written in 1996 or so.
• ircII script core.
• Dozens of external utility programs, written in C++, Ruby, PHP and C.
• BisqBot is located in Kerava, Finland.

These cute moogles help BisqBot in some of his mundane tasks.
