Update to provide support for new reddit implementation

[ahaggard2013]

Reddit has updated their website login page. This update changes the element ID's of the login page, along with requiring an email to be entered to register. Updating to handle this change would require:

1. update the element IDs accessed via the script
2. update to enter random email address's before attempting to create an account (it doesn't seem like they need to be verifed, this means it can be any email, it should just be unique to each account and could be generated in a similar way to usernames)
3. research/test any possible changes to how account creation is processed, and if this technique is still viable.

This is a pretty good beginner python project for someone looking to learn how to collaborate with git or improve their python. I don't plan on updating this myself, but if anyone would like to help contribute I'd be happy to help work through issues you may run into. Create a pull request with the update, or ask any questions you may have!

Just change

browser.get('http://reddit.com/login')

to

browser.get('http://old.reddit.com/login')

and it should be fine.

[ahaggard2013]

Nice! Didnt know that was there.

[westondeboer]

I am not very gud at git, but I also updated the randomUserNames.py to generate a more human name

#!/usr/bin/env python
import random
import string
import names

def generate_username_password(amount, ulength, plength, list):
    for _ in range(0,amount):
        username = names.get_full_name()
        username = ''.join(username.split())
        list.write(username+':'+ ''.join(random.choice(string.ascii_uppercase + string.digits) for _ in range(plength)) + '\n')

list = open('redditNameList.txt', 'w')
generate_username_password(100,15,15, list)
list.close()

need to "pip install names", the usernames look better.

@ahaggard2013 so is your issue in the README now fixed, or is there still a problem that needs to be solved?

[JosephShenton]

Doesn't work it always says 'care to try these again'.

[izanagi1995]

This is due to captcha.

[ajmeese7]

@izanagi1995 are you talking about on the new Reddit or the old Reddit? Because if the old one doesn't have it, you could just bypass it with the suggestion by @westondeboer

[izanagi1995]

The old one have a captcha. When you fill the username and the password it becomes visible.

You can bypass google captcha sound with this, it works with python, i hope there is one guy that get this reddit script working, i neeeeed it! xD! YouTube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lnmtqPam1qg Github link: https://github.com/theriley106/outCaptcha

When it asks you for an email address you can just click next, you don't need to enter anything.

As for the captchas, you can use a separate login to defeat the "care to try these again" and "your computer is performing automated requests...", there's an add-on for firefox called "I'm not robot captcha clicker", to take care of that. Then, I just make it sleep for 8 minutes between each creation to avoid the "you are doing that too much" message.

..and yes, the old.reddit.com works great.

(If someone knows how to insert "already-made" names into the creatednames.txt, I haven't managed to figure that out yet.)

It works fine, just switch www.reddit.com to old.reddit.com. See my comment above regarding the other issues.

[sachanta6]

Can anyone make a video on how to do this?

[Klapkaak078]

Thanks Barry! Gonna try it! 🙏🏻

[jaredwad]

@barryhoppins is just username:password to put that in the file. I tried your suggestions for old.reddit.com and the firefox extension, but I'm still having problems with capchas, I get sent in an infinate loop like @JosephShenton was seeing
