Why do we release a tool like this?

  The situation nowadays is that more and more people in the scene are
  there and do nothing. Traders run scripts or programs like this and
  still think they are an important part of the scene. Well the time has 
  changed. Its nomore a use of those ppl. in the past there was a big need
  for them. but not now. the more people the more open it all is, the more
  security risks there are.
  we in paradox know that there are lots of ppl in the scene who don't agree
  (hi trader) ;P
  anyway if your a siteop and agree, then use this tool to fill ur site and
  be hapy to kick some useless guys. if you don't agree then life as before...
  we don't care.

  We know that even those hated traders use this tool now. Some might say now
  its our own fault...well yes it is, but now siteops may realize that they have 
  useless ppl on there sites wich could be replaced with one single tool.


why is trading useless nowadays?

  traders use scripts mostly or tools just like this. they don't do anything mostly
  also its alot of useless badwich. why? in 0day scene e.g. they dl the whole rls
  to there shell, and simultanly ul them to all there sites (of course a script).
  often its a dupe (since someone else was faster). so all useless bandwish.
  this tool transfers a file from one site to another. no extra bandwish at all.

Small tutorial for autotrading

  i as the coder developed this tool for pdx as an pre-tool (name says it all)
  but added more and more functions and i think its time so ppl could use it.
  it maybe buggy in lots of places, but its useable.

  1. Import your sites
     Click [config] -> [SiteManager] -> [Import]
  2. choose sites to import and go through each site after it.
     - change the type of the site
     - change group/archive and requestdirs
     - go to SiteRules -tab and define the siterules.
       use the wizard button to help you to define the sections and rules
       The defined sections will not only used for autotrading, but also to fill your internal 
       dupedb (mysql) with proper information (correct section to each release). It also can make
       the search for an release much faster.
       If your see a file called /preee.ruleset on your site just hit template->import.
       for ruleediting: - name the section always with same name (not on one site 0day on another oday)
                        - if you have different rules for each section name them 0day, 0day-2, 0day-3 ...
                        - sections can have the same path.
                        - for the path you can enter $day, $month, $year, $week, $amiweek,...
                          and the current values of the date get added.
                        - don't use links use pathes with date-tags (see above)
                        - for skip/musthave-lists... if u enter "CRAP|*-LND" then the program tries 
                          to match this...
                             1. mask CRAP  -> in a rls-folder *[_.-]CRAP[_.-]* if found
                             2. mask *-LND -> in a rls-folder *-LND was found
                          the "|" just seperates more then one mask

  3. After you edited all and think its ok, leave the [config] dialog and hit [Connect] on the 
     mainform.
  4. for now the app only reports new releases. if u check [Autotrade] on mainform it starts to trade.
  5. to controll the app from outside, you can enable ICQ,Webserver or let him join an IRC-channel.
     the settings can be changed in [config] aswell
