So if I see a bot, I should treat it like a real person, because calling out bots is an “attack”?
The problem is that a lot of people cry “bot” or “troll” anytime they disagree with what a poster has posted. I’ve been accused of being a bot too. And a troll. Many, many times.
But I’m not a bot. Or a troll. And that’s why it’s uncool.
That’s actually not for you to decide. If your behavior is constantly inflaming the community
That actually IS for me to decide. If my intentions are pure, and some people in the community get inflamed, that’s on them. Doesn’t make me a troll.
Tl;Dr: Bots and trolls have recognizable patterns, so avoid doing things that make you look like a bot or a troll.
That’s not for you to decide. Your air of superiority in your post could def lead some people so say you sound like a troll or a bot. Does that mean you are one?
Do not attack other users, that includes bot accusations.

If you see what you think is a bot, report it and let the mods handle it.

You can counter something without accusing them of being a bot or a foreign agent, but yes, also report it.

When you do a hundred posts and comment a day it’s understandable that people would confuse you for a bot.
