First I wanted to let you know that launch was quite successful. Tens of thousands of people visited StatBot, Hundreds of League players friended Statbot within a few hours, swamping StatBot's servers and hitting the friend cap.
Unfortunately, as best I can tell Riot will not allow this tool to exist in production. They don't seem to want anyone connected to both their API and chat server at the same time. LoLAlerter, an app I hadn't heard of before, and one that offers some of the features I wanted to add to StatBot, was recently shutdown for similar reasons.
The source code will remain open source, and you could, if you so chose, download it and have your own StatBot to see what things would be like if the game would talk back to you.
I'm sorry that StatBot's lifespan was so short and I will let you know if things change and Riot does choose to allow StatBot to exist. I have some great plans for StatBot if such a day were to come.
I leave you with some stats you might find informational. Thank you again for your interest/use of StatBot.
