Feature

Posting comments to forums and private messages may be added at some point.

Reason

The MyAnimeList API may add a comment/messages API. See https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1973141&show=0#msg64959633

However, the API cannot be used (yet) to:

  • post comments in the forum²;
  • send private messages to other users²;
  • query the characters or people databases³;
  • access the news or featured articles pages;
  • interact with several other functionalities found on the website.

(¹) Only the main forum boards can be accessed.
(²) It's technically possible to send messages and post forum comments using the API, but the recent introduction of Google reCAPTCHA made it impossible to perform such actions in an automated manner.
(³) The characters and people endpoints exist but are undocumented and under active development. Don't use them.
