MOD MESSAGE DOWN WITH THE BOT-NESS

Post image

👹 🎶 🎶Drowning deep in my sea of loathing
Broken your servant, I kneel
It seems what's left of my human side
Is slowly changing in me 🎶🎶👹

MOD ANGST ON 100, CHAT.

Help us bop these bots & bottish human karma farmers!

As always WE DO NOT ALLOW BOT OR LLM ACCUSATIONS IN COMMENT SECTIONS but wanted to keep y'all updated on how to help self-police our community to keep it human.

🚩 REPORT!
Use the report button and select the reason for stolen or copied content, or for bot/karma farming activity. If you are 1000001% certain you found a spam account, you may also report as Spam to get the attention of Big Reddit™️

🔗 LINK US!
ModMail us about posts (WITH LINKS!) that make your spidey senses tingle, ideally with additional links to the user's contradictory post history or botty comment history.

🕵🏼‍♀️ SCAN IT!
ModMail us with screenshots of Pangram (etc) scans showing the non-humanness of post text. There's a convenient Chrome extension for Pangram.

🚨🚨REPORT TO BOTBOUNCER! (NEW!)🚨🚨

BotBouncer is a tool for reporting disruptive activity from bots (script-driven) or LLM fakery (may be human-driven), which adds those users to a site-wide registry. Reported users are reviewed by the BotBouncer team for classification, and those deemed non-organic are registered and then banned from all subs with the BotBouncer tool installed. THAT'S US!

We got special mod buttons for that but YOU non-mods can report fakers for review too!

Find a weird profile, copy its link, and post to r/BotBouncer. That's it! They'll take it from there!

GO GET EM!!

Appreciate you, girl diners! 😚🫴💨💋

(If you'd like to be deputized as a minimod to run Pangram scans & post those screenshots in comment sections -- ⭐️ and receive a custom flair to designate you as such ⭐️ -- please comment DEPUTIZE ME, CAP'N and let us know!!)

We’re eating bots for breakfast

u/OldButHappy Sep 14 '26

The gpt assisted posts are worse- 12 long paragraphs of irrelevant details about an event that could easily be described in 2 short paragraphs…

12

u/TeamLaurent Sep 14 '26

Yep, if they scan with LLM watermarks, we remove them. Otherwise, let the girlies vent. Rant & Ramble posts are specifically for the 12 unnecessary paragraphs lol

u/Megatrans69 Sep 14 '26

Are the comments that are gifs only that are everywhere in every comment section here bots? I have seen other subs people using the bot finder thing on those comments.

17

u/TeamLaurent Sep 14 '26

those are usually men, bc we restrict them to emojis/GIFs and auto-remove their text comments until we can do a manual review the writing

4

u/Megatrans69 Sep 14 '26

OH that makes sense! I didn't know men couldn't write without being reviewed

u/down_by_the_shore Sep 14 '26

GOOD BOT!!! (The botbouncer I mean)

u/ImWatermelonelyy Sep 14 '26

Not active enough on Reddit but good luck gals. You got this 👍

u/Buffy_AnneSummers Sep 14 '26

How do you spot a bot???

5

u/SilentTrysteros Sep 14 '26

They have a very recognizable, grating writing style that has multiple AI tells in it. Their accounts are also generally new, and they target our sub specifically. No real signs of an actual human life behind all the empty comments that sound the same.

As a side note, LLMs are becoming better at mimicking internet-speak. So it’s easy to be fooled, as in this example below.

u/peppertones Sep 14 '26

hmm so excessive emojis would be a tell also? this comment would’ve fooled me too 💀

8

u/SilentTrysteros Sep 14 '26

Yes! The crying emoji as punctuation has become the new tell too. Mods have full access to people’s profiles, so I always check comment history to confirm whether the emojis are a sign of a real human or not — because, of course, LLMs learn from real human writing. But it’s pretty obvious when they’re a bot — new account, no signs of a real human life, and the same repetitive comment style.

u/onethousandcoffees Sep 15 '26

one thing I've noticed is bot comments tend to reiterate exact wording from the post, sometimes summarizing the whole post in their response comments

2

u/SilentTrysteros Sep 15 '26

Yep! That’s a big giveaway. They also tend to reply to the top comment to farm karma, but their comment reads as tho they’re replying to OP. Here’s an example:

and THIS is why we don't allow accusations in comment sections. Me and a literary PhD mod on the squad take too much shit for being too-coherent writers. cough also why men are on default mute 🫠 cough

trust that we are also as disappointed sometimes too! i have personally commented on bot posts in the past before doing my usual due diligence, then feeling like the world’s biggest jerk when i realize what happened 5 seconds after digging into the profile 🤦‍♀️

we remove what we can as quickly as we can, but the sub is growing fast and we mods are only human 😭 but we’re excited to have this new tool in our toolbox alongside the ever-important user reports we rely so heavily on!

oh girl, if you could peek inside our super secret mod discord channels, you’d see just how seriously we do take it! (eta: in fact, you can if you apply for a mod spot and are accepted!) fr this issue is probably 75-90% of our daily discussion no lie.

we’ve been manually vetting and discussing every single post or comment we see that we get weird vibes from for months. my camera roll is full of other peoples’ dinners because we’ve been looking for AI watermarks and reverse image searching by hand 🫠 and we will continue to do so! but now with some extra muscle behind the scenes 💪

eta: oop! and here we have a highly ironic example of me replying to an actual bot (on a post about fighting bots) with full throated sincerity 🫣 another one bites the dust!
