everyone has bots
aol, irc, reddit, google, microsoft, various forums, cia, the jetsons
but not 4chan
why?
There are - nobody recognizes then because their postings are just as inane as their real human counterparts though.

>>52895783
seriously this.
The trained bots are often indistinguishable from the average inane shitposter, except the have better spelling
Ok kid.
There are bots all the time.
Were you here when "It a crimes to impersonate somebody" followed by a picture of a puppet cat.
remember kimmo alm?
even Grindr is full of bots.
that's why I use Blued.
>>52895734
Because they can't get past the captcha

I'm not sure but I'm pretty thankful. Imagine if we had to dispel once and for all with this fiction that Barack Obama doesn't know what he's doing. He knows EXACTLY what he's doing. Barack Obama is undertaking a systematic effort to change this country, to make America more like the rest of the world.
>>52896328
I'd rather fucking not.
Seriously though, anyone who thinks 4chan didn't have bots is very new.

at least I hope that last one wasn't all just people posting...
Shit, why do you think moot added captcha?
>>52896574
I once saw a girl with a 'desucon' backpack. Did not proceed to beat the living shit out of her. I regret my decision to this day.

normal people (as well as some bots possibly)
Captcha was the only way to combat these fucks and that's okay

To jew money out of the userbase by having them buy passes.

Because all external bots are spammers.

now that is the most generous thing I've seen someone say in a long time
>>52896747
captchas were around for quite a while before passes, and people were clamoring for it (it was /q/'s idea, not moot's)
>>52895783
>nailed it
there used to be tons of bots (back in like 2007 or so), generally recaptcha does a good job with them. also 4chan has very very aggressive internal spam filters.
the most bots i ever see are in (or attempting to be in) wordpress comments. other than that not much
>>52895734
Just your average, human paid shills unfortunately.
>too new to remember
there are no or few bots because they are fucking cancer.
Wait, you're not my fellow robots? Shit.

It's not uncommon for people to rebel against word filters by spamming the filtered words unironically, see Streisand effect, senpai desu.

Those are the "Who would win 100 Marines or 1 Stick" -posts on /b and most probably the /backupreminder/ on /g only to name two.
Probably they are 4chin approved and don't have to to solve capture? Are 4chin devs here?
Most of them are blocked by captcha, but there are bots here.

CAPTCHAs
the 'newchan.ru' image spamming on /b/ might be automated.
Can you make a bot that doesn't need to solve captchas by using a 4chan pass?
>>52898418
Yes, but once it's reported and banned you wasted your pass.
Hey guys? Is it normal for SheekyForums to copy threads from here?
Where's install gentoo bot?

It died because captcha. Just like the interjection bot.

This is one of the reasons everyone hates the us.
Fucking captcha has saved our goddamned lives.
>>52895783
this is probably a bot too
Does no one else remember the interjection bot? That was great, killed any mention of Linux for ages. I wonder how he got past the spam filters?
Wait a second, what the fuck is going on in this thread? An exact replica of it is on some forum site.

some autism decided to mirror everything on a "forum" and place ads everywhere. it pops up when looking for stuff in archives so it's a quick way of making money. strips out images and keeps text for low hosting fees.
Does anyone remember that annoying "The Surgeon" copypasta spam from like 6 years ago? I still think of it time to time.
>>52899580
Mods allowed it when they still cared. Some janitor found it funny.
What's the point behind bots spamming forums anyways?
>>52895734
Bots can't get past 4chan's exclusive multiple layers of user created bot nets.
>>52899913
>some autism
You mean some genius?
Because it's brilliant. It's literally free money and no effort.
