Say, I have a bot @tbot.
Whenever someone, say @tuser, sends a DM or an @reply to @tbot,
tweetbots.com will send the message to a online script at the developers's website, say
somewebsite.com/tbot/accept.php?msg=hello!&from=tuser&to=tbot&type=direct-message

and the script will then output a message back, and tweetbots will update @tbot's feed.
the script may respond with
"d tuser hi!" or "@tuser hi!" whichever he/she prefers

or even a command like
"/unfollow tuser" which, tweetbots.com will then make the bot unfollow tuser

    Arvncstro,

    Thanks for the suggestion, we have just such a job type in mind and it will be one of our first endeavors, once we get the new code base launched with paid plans.
