	'''Bot Programming''' has taken a unique role in [[Everybody Edits]] culture. Some despise [[Bots]] as intrusive to the game itself. Others find them quite useful. Of these supporters, divisions can still be made. Therein you find users who play [[Bots\|Bot]]-Assisted Levels, users who run bot programs, and still other users who ultimately create these programs. None of these subdivisions are mutually exclusive. Therefore, you can often find players who can enjoy a fun bot and discuss how to create or practically improve the program. This guide is particularly aimed towards the '''Bot Programmers'''. This will be most beneficial to those with little to no experience.
