Inappropriate?I think Josh is working and an "All" or a "Named" version of the re-tweet bot.
So basically, you can option to name the Twitter users that can DM your bot to re-tweet, or anyone that DM's the bot their tweet gets re-tweeted.
Make sense?
I’m confident

Inappropriate?Ah great. Can it work with @messages as opposed to DMs?
-
Inappropriate?My sense is that people may @reply the bot not intending/not knowing that it will retweet them, causing some havoc.
I've been trying to figure out how to work a "self-service" sort of retweet situation as well, just to make it more automated for followers to participate.
Perhaps they begin their reply with a certain character or code, indicating that they intend this for retweetion, while normal, innocent @replies remain as intended.

Inappropriate?http://twitter.com/lotd is a nice retweeting bot that i'm a fan of - it utilizes @reply and seems to be pretty nice. The nice thing about @reply is that is also raises awareness of the bot to the senders friends - something you lose with a DM
-
Inappropriate?ooo, that's pretty nice.
Good point about the visibility of @reply vs DM
I like the fact that that bot credits the source.
If someone retweets a particular one that they liked, the bot would probably retweet it right back, and it might get a little messy, but I guess that's not really a big deal. -
Inappropriate?the internet is messy :)
if you add that feature then i could use tweetbots for a project i'm working on, which i would love. Otherwise I'll roll my own. Do you think this'll make it in? -
Inappropriate?This feature is on our radar. We've had several users request an open re-tweet option.
When this feature comes to fruition, I'll post back here as well as tweet it from @tweetbots.
I’m confident

this answers the question

Inappropriate?We are closer to getting the time to get this feature in place. Not sure if you noticed, but we did a design refresh on the app.
We are listening... :)
I’m happy
