JokeDatabase
Be Aware
The joke on wipe feature, does not currently work in raids. Trying to figure out if there is a work around.
Overview
JokeDatabase is a World of Warcraft Retail addon that posts random jokes to group chat. It will post a joke automatically after failed encounters and can reply to joke requests in guild, party, raid, and instance chat. The addon uses persistent saved variables to track recent joke usage across sessions.
This is a addonification of my own Weakaura, which was a continuation of Tarball's Dadabase. Updated with over 600 jokes, and persistent tracking of recently used jokes to avoid repeats until all jokes have been used.
