Not exactly. I'm still testing my forum post script.

I'm really out of the loop with Panther but since when can you send POST data with it?

It's not Panther. It is perl.

Easy. LWP::UserAgent. But I guess you just want to basically know how it works. It posts the username and password to the scratch login page, then gets the forum root to generate the punbb cookie, then it posts to post.php.

We should have a Sandbox forum, for stuff like this.

Or for New Scratchers!
I see New Scratchers testing with the blocks every once a while.

What do you mean new scratchers testing blocks?
I didn't think it was done with Panther, but I'm sutiably impressed! Technically you could get a Panther project to do this using Squeak's formfill and I was trying to use this to post to facebook... alas, nothing working there yet...

That's quite amazing for it being done in Perl! Now I know how to use cookies in Python! xD I'll have to learn a bit more before I'll be able to make one of these. Keep up the cool work!

Does this thing escape the 60 second rule?
I'd be surprised. I believe the 60 second rule posting is worked out by the Scratch servers by noting either IP addresses or Scratch usernames. In which case the perl poster would still be subject to it. It would be interesting to see what happens to the perl script if you try and post two things within 30 seconds of each other...

It does not escape the 60 second rule. I has some trouble debugging because I thought some errors that were actually from the 60 second rule came from the program.

Yeah, the 60 second rule is done in the backend of the forum, it isn't done on the client.
