KH13 Bot Research & Development Team

Mission Statement:

 

As many of us know, kh13 seems to attract several bots who tend to spam our good forums with advertisements and other things

 

Yet despite the constant efforts of our Moderators to eliminate them, the bots always seem to show up on a daily basis

 

Because of this I have decided to begin officially documenting the bots to see if patterns begin emerging behind their actions

 

Such as their age, gender, usernames, sub-categories they make threads under, what language they write in, what time and day they post, what they're actually saying, what they advertise if anything

 

We have fought this war against the bots for some time now yet they always return, therefore before the Moderators do their jobs and eliminate the bots I seek to learn these things about each one to try and find patterns

 

Of course I'm not always online so I can't do this alone, if Moderators who delete the bots and their propaganda could at the very least tell me either here or in chat what time the bots posted so I can make notes that would be excellent, or if any Member who sees them could supply me with information, take a screenshot or copy and paste what they say, it would be invaluable to my research

 

Together we can begin studying these bots and begin to unravel the mystery behind them, perhaps even uncovering the truth of the bots!

Ah!!! Interesting.....mind if I help?

Of course!

 

I need people to keep tabs on bots that appear while I'm offline, so if you see one and could take screenshots or at the very least tell me what time they post that would be invaluable

 

I'll even add you to the Staff on my first comment should you choose to assist

Sis, go find something better to do.

Too much free time has drawn me to science

I thought we just had to flirt with them

You're thinking of the movie Her

Of course!

I'll do better than that!! I'll sketch detailed profiles of the bots, and post them all over town for others to bewareeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! >: O

 

No, seriously- sounds kinda fun. A little strange....but something to do, nevertheless!

 

Who ya gonna call?? BOT BUSTERS! /shot

Gubby that avatar is brand new  Are you on something Like maybe Mos Eisley Cantina's beer and drug figure set

Yep, new avatar from the new game I'm interested inDo they seriously have a figure set of that?

Science is normally seen as strange to those not conducting itIt's precisely because it's strange that someone has to do it, or something like thatI plan on making a list of things to keep track of every time I encounter a bot when I have the time

This sounds like an investigation mission on a videogame

KH13 The Video Game, Sidequest Bot Investigation

They used to have the whole kitchen pattern but it's been a while since I seen a good kitchen ad

I miss those days

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!

 

But, Quota.

ryuby i have noticed these bots often advertise shoes

Someone say Kitchens?

Okay, this thread actually made me curious, so I was going through old reports to see if there was anything that stuck out.

 

The majority of the recent threads made by Bots (that were reported) are trying to sell drugs of some kind. So for some reason, the bots that make threads are almost always the ones selling drugs, while the other ones normally just make posts in random threads or status updates.

 

As for the Russian bots... I've only been able to find two reports that contained the actual text: one was pornography, the other was drugs. I was hoping for something a bit more off the wall, expecting nonsense, and learned it was basically every other bot, but in Russian...

You're thinking of the movie Her

Actually, I got that from Thrillville - Off the Rails. I posted a topic about it over two years ago.

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!

 

But, Quota.

For my next investigation I'll be looking into the quota

Thank you Fire! I appreciate the info

 

On a less serious note they must know my sneakers are a year old

Kunivas confirmed as a kitchen bot

So they're pharmacists

 

But in all seriousness thank you very much for the info, DragonMaster!

 

I wish the bots talked about more funny things than drugs and mature stuff though, makes me miss the kitchen bots

 

But this info is very useful so thank you again!

*Takes notes* Hmmm, the Quota- a mysterious opponent indeed.... Theory has it, that the clever foe waits to strike after an unsuspecting member assumes their 20th like, but dark rumors suggest that such a fate can befall a victim even sooner....*Poses for a moment, with a number 2 pencil resting thoughtfully against my chin* It is safe to say, that the bizarre affliction lifts itself after approximately 20 to 30 minutes, but some undisclosed sources suggest that longer times are common....on rare occasion, entire days coming into play, even...

That explains it, I haven't been here two years yet

Keep on like that and I'm going to abandon my current investigation to look into this quota thing

Converting your current investigation is not necessary, dear Rubs... For I am merely here to offer opinions and state fact, not to change your mind's current calling. For, as it were- I thought it opportunistic to mention that Quota also seems to have a conflict with mobile devices- For example, upon liking a member's post via cellular device, one may often encounter the strange message "There was a problem storing your reputation vote". If not these words exactly, something undeniably similar. It is as much peculiar, as it is inconvenient...often causing one to tap their phone's screen vigorously, or even shake the poor device  on some occasions..

But if you keep talking about the quota investigation I'm going to lose interest in the botsMy attention span is very shortI need to make the list of things to look for in a bot while I still can

Ah! Well in that case, allow me to cease my current ramble so that you may create said list in peace. ^o^

No you weren't rambling, that's why it had to stop you were making too many good points and taking my interest off the bots @-@But the list is now done, the bot investigations may commence!

That's not how quota works:P

 

You get 20 likes every 24 hours. Literally you get every single like back after said like is 24 hours old. So if your likes are spread out throughout the day you will get them back throughout the day.

Lea don't just solve it! >-<We gotta make another ridiculous investigation thread and research it for three years once this investigation finishes! xDx

Hahaha but it's my job

Hahaha but it's my job

Moderators get stuff done to the point, which clashes with Researchers who take years to complete their work for extra pay and fundingBut on a serious note thank you again for deleting the bot after I collected my data! ^^

DD, WHY YOU DESTROY MY RESEARCH?! I SOUNDING ALL SMART AND SHIT!

 

 

 

Oooh well! Back to observing the consistency of gummy worms. *Noms*

Make sure to take into account how long they've been exposed to air once the packaging is openedThat can have adverse effects on consistency

Ah, certainly!! Most notably in summer, when their overall composition is reduced to a sticky, gooey, multi-colored patty stuck to the packaging. God Bless those innocent worms....*Removes hat in a state of melancholy*
