Rubot, formerly known as zBot, is a bot by Zeros-Elipticus written in Ruby. It's currently in beta stage, you can probably note Zeros-Elipticus to get one. It hasn't been updated in a couple of years and Zeros-Elipticus hasn't been online in about the same time, and as the bot isn't available here, the bot hasn't been in much use for quite a while.
