Tint500ByAlf, a 500px bot

This Is Not The 500px Bot You Are Looking For.

What is it?

A perl/mojolicious script for reporting users that use automated tools for liking photos.

More than 1000 likes in a day? Really?

Modes of working

You can check & report all the users inside a given file or inspect your friends and tell which ones look like bots.

For both actions there's a number of likes threshold (125 by default). You can change it with the -l | --likes parameter.

The threshold is used for both likes in a day and likes in a week divided by seven.

User credentials

You can use the folloging parameters:

-u | --user
-p | --password

or edit the script and uncomment and modify the following lines:

## Configuration constants ##
# $params{u} = 'foobar@foo.bar';
# $params{p} = 'fooBarFooBar Password';

Usage parameters

Usage:
  .\Tint500byAlf.pl
    -h | --help     : Print this help
    -r | --report   : File with users to report
    -f | --friends  : Inspect friends and check for bots
                      Cannot be used with --report
    -l | --likes    : Number of likes threshold (default = 125)
    -u | --user     : Login credentials, user name
    -p | --password : Login credentials, password

    Login credentials are required, but you can setup default
    values editing this script.

Troubleshooting

On windows machines, the script may be slow and you may recieve timeouts.

For fixing this, add an exclussion to the Windows Defender, exclussion type process and select the path of the perl executable.
