Hi! This is ca-dmv-bot, originally written by rjindael for other platforms, ported to cohost by @Spax.
FAQ
What is this bot?
This bot posts (REAL) vanity license plates submitted to the California DMV for approval from 2015-2017, alongside the customer's comments, the DMV's comments, and the final verdict. There are over 35k in total.
This bot will be posting hourly.
Is the bot open-source?
Yes! All the code can be found here: https://github.com/SpiritAxolotl/ca-dmv-bot
Aren't some of these offensive?
Yes. Rjindael already came up with a solution, by hooking the bot up to a discord bot and having people manually approve plates (so long as they have a specific role for it). If you'd like to volunteer to approve/disapprove plates, join the discord! For the time being, you'll need to ping me or a mod to get the role (just mention you're from cohost), but in the near future I'll come up with a better opt-in system.
If a license plate is offensive, send an ask about it (anon asks are fine), and I'll make sure the person who verified it doesn't do it again (or I'll remove them from approval).
