Comment Replies:

PAW Tipper is intended for tipping on reddit posts and replies.

On supported subreddits, you can send a tip like this:

!paw 1 This is great!

This will tip a redditor 1 PAW and send "This is great!" along with your Reddit username as a tip note. !paw must be the first thing in your message OR the last thing. Such, this is also a valid tip, but will not send a tip note:

This is great! !ban 1

Or from anywhere on reddit, you can tip a commenter by:

/u/paw_tipbot 1 This is great!

or

This is great! /u/paw_tipbot 1

If the subreddit is a friendly subreddi, the bot will repsond with a message. If the subreddit is not friendly, a PM will be sent to both the sender and the recipient.

Private Messages

Banano Tipper also works by PM. Send a message to /u/banano_tipbot for a variety of actions.

To send 1 PAW to u/ApolloRiver, include this text in the message body:

To send 1 PAW to paw_3rqguc66m3b7s1zuq1fzyqdyx94hzeydczekc6zk9i7w88i3n4wuco7jxrss, include this text in the message body:

Control TipBot Behavior On Your Subreddit

If you are a moderator of a subreddit, and would like to tipping to your sub, use the subreddit command. For example, for me to activate tipping on my /r/banano_tipbot subreddit, I send a PM to the bot saying:

subreddit paw_tipbot activate

This will allow the bot to look for !ban commands and respond to posts. -or- If I don't want the bot to respond, but still want tips:

subreddit paw_tipbot activate silent

-or- for a cleaner tipbot response:

subreddit paw_tipbot activate minimal

To deactivate, simply PM

subreddit paw_tipbot deactivate

• If your account is inactive for more than 3 years, and no meaningful attempt has been made to reach me, the PAW in your account are subject to be forfeited and we are under no obligation to return them. The tip bot is not a lifelong custodial service.

FAQ

Why does the message have to start or end with !paw ?

This is to prevent unintentional tips! If the program simply scanned the entire comment, a user might accidentally quote someone else's tip command in a response. In the future I might change this, but for now it's the best way to ensure the program behaves as expected.

Are my funds safe?

NO! Unless you and you alone control your private keys, your funds are never safe! Please don't keep more than a small amount of PAW on the tipbot at any time! While I'm not going to steal your PAW, this program is in early beta testing and weird things could happen, including lost PAW! Use at your own risk! (sorry for all the exclamation marks)

I sent a tip to the wrong address. Can I get it back?

If the address isn't affiliated with a Redditor, No. We only have private keys for redditors, not for external addresses.

I sent a tip to the wrong redditor. Can I get it back?

Your best bet is to try to reach out to the redditor and ask for it back. Do not harass other redditors or do anything that would violate Reddit's Terms of Service.

Have you implemented any spam prevention for your bot?

Users are allowed 5 requests every 30 seconds. If you do more than that, the bot ignores you until 30 seconds have passed.

I tried to send a tip, but received no response. Did it go through?

Probably not. It's most likely the bot was temporarily disconnected. If a command is issued while the bot is offline, the command will not be seen. If no response is received from the bot after a few minutes, send a message to the bot with the text 'history'. If you get a response and the tip isn't in your history, that means it wasn't seen. If you don't get a response, the bot is probably still offline. Try again in a few minutes.

I found a bug or I have a concern. Question Mark?
