So I wondered if a lot of these “how do I make art” and similar posts are actually created by misguided bots. It’s always the same few one scentense questions, often posted all over the place. They never reply back or just again with the same phrases again and sometimes create nonsense topics with scrambled letters (sometimes even in the actual post).
And even if they are bots, can we do something about it? I mean it’s not overwhelmingly bad, as far as I can tell, but it wastes the time of anyone genuinely wanting to help.
Well there were some legitimate topics in the past with similar wording, often by people who are obviously not good with English, so I’m not sure if that would help. That’s what frustrates me even more I guess, I don’t want to report a genuine user by accident.
It’s just when I read the subject line of a topic and it’s one of “these” it already makes my blood boil.
I’m sorry this topic is a bit for venting, that’s why I put it in #lounge not in Site Feedback x3.
However instead, of blacklisting the phrases we could have Kikibot answer these generic one liners instead. If it’s a real user with further questions they will reply and other people can then continue. If it’s not nobody’s time was wasted.
Like this one? The OP from this topic really seems like a bot that belongs to a person trying to train their Ai algorithm by making a bunch of nonsensical responses. It didn’t care about the type of responses it got to it’s question, just that it constantly got fed more responses so it will have more data to train it’s Ai.
True but this one is especially hard to follow because posts got moved and topics merged because the user asked the same questions in other people’s unrelated topics.
I noticed this too. I had the feeling that there where more in the last months. I sometimes wonder, If the very negative posts had been written by a competitor company.
