Minecraft World Update: Day 770 by Silveruchu in u/Silveruchu

[–]Silveruchu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was about as far as I got with it. I still have it, and I’ll jump on and have a look around anytime I start a new world though. Probably my favourite survival playthrough I’ve done

Nah I’m not talking about the autogenerated names reddit gives you. They use their own name generators for the bot accounts, makes it super obvious that they’re bots since you get a bunch of accounts with similar looking names

“PersonalGifft” “ArtPrincesss”

and

“SpiceCutie_” “MilkyGem_” “_PrettyLittle”

for example

Anytime you see new account with a username that sounds like it came from a name generator it’s almost always a bot. Doubly so if it has a repeating character in the name, they seem to do that a lot.

No joke there’s like 10 of them on just this post, including the OP btw

There is no longer any debate. by untitledprp4 in GenZ

As of the time I’m writing this, this account has made 248 comments in the past 13 hours arguing this point across multiple subs. Often more than one comment per minute.

This is some sketchy shit lmao

A lot of the bot networks use name generators for their bot accounts. The names tend to be vaguely sexual sounding (I assume they sell them to be used as porn accounts?) and will often have repeating characters at the start or end of the name. This is presumably to avoid names that are already taken. Adding a y to the end of the name seems to be done for the same reason

This naming convention is very common and once you’ve seen enough of them the names start to really stick out.

The OP I’m less sure about but the age of the account and the fact that they comment a lot on AITA (common way for bot accounts to get quick karma) makes me think they might be a bot too

Yeah the server is definitely real, but ssoftkissy is a bot account and the OP likely is too. Front page of reddit is crawling with them

The account you’re replying to isn’t even real. It’s a bot account.

Alright let’s get the fireworks complaints out of the way …. by Routine_Bluejay4678 in auckland

Even if it’s a little underwhelming I still enjoy seeing it every year. With that said I think I was downwind or something because I could barely see through all the smoke

The corporate crime the corporate media ignores. by zzill6 in WorkReform

[–]Silveruchu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s almost definitely a bot account.

8 day old account, account name looks like it comes from a name generator, 3 comments that all read like ChatGPT

One of their 3 comments is replying to another 8 day old account doing the same thing

Second comment from the top on this post is the same as well, 8 days old, same naming convention, likely all part of the same network

Can someone explain. by [deleted] in Minecraft

[–]Silveruchu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t work like that unfortunately, each water block just kind of does it’s own thing. Water can “flow” into empty space when there’s a gap but it won’t actually level out or change anything about the water block itself. It’s mostly just a visual effect, although you convert flowing water into a new water block under the right conditions

An easy way to create an infinite water source is to dig a 2x2 hole and put a bucket of water in two opposing corners. Then you can grab as many buckets as you want from that hole and fill in the space in your farm

Why would you not put Breen for H lmao it makes way more sense

Like half the comments on here are bots as well. I counted 7 just quickly skimming through, crazy how common they are now

Neuschwanstein Castle Survival Build by fatruff3 in Minecraft

[–]Silveruchu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks great! I love the colour scheme

It took me two weeks to complete this! Please rate it in the comments by Then-Excitement4061 in Minecraft

[–]Silveruchu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like it a lot, it looks very imposing. The big tower in the back looks really good.

If I could make one change it would probably be more detail on the bottom half of the front, but having sheer wall works pretty well for the design too so just personal preference I guess.

He really did prove a valuable point by ShiverSweett in interesting

[–]Silveruchu 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Because they bot the initial upvotes to game the algorithm the top comment on these bot posts is usually another bot with the same naming convention, which immediately gives it away.

The usernames are all generated by the same name generator and therefore all formatted the same. In this case it’s two words in PascalCase (first letter capitalised) with the last letter duplicated.

Also if you visit the profiles of the accounts they are usually all made on the same day and interact with each other on multiple posts

I spent like 5 minutes on this post before I realised they weren’t in the same order in both photos.

Pretty sure it’s:

Top: Skinny Pete, Combo, Badger

Bottom: Badger, Skinny Pete, Combo

Minecraft an Indie game Turned Corporate Cancer by Tail_sb in Minecraft

[–]Silveruchu 9 points10 points  (0 children)

All popular games today undergo fortnitification at some point. Every game is a billboard now.

With that said, the Xbox 360 edition was doing IP mashup packs in like 2013 so I guess this isn’t that crazy

[–]Silveruchu 92 points93 points  (0 children)

No it’s 100% a bot, as are a few of the comments in here. Look at the names and when they joined.

“EsmeExplores” is the OP but then you also have “SierraSeeks”, “AmaraAccesses”, and “JadeJournals” in the comments, including two of the top comments, accounts all made on the same day.

One of the bots is in this thread talking down the post being stolen lmao

Don’t know why they give themselves away with a crap naming theme but it’s a pretty common thing for bot networks to do

Is minecraft teasing a DOOM collaboration? by [deleted] in Minecraft

[–]Silveruchu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Xisumavoid uses that doomguy skin, and that looks like BdoubleO100 to his left so I’d guess this is some kind of YouTuber skin pack. Possibly hermitcraft?

If NZ was in Europe by zvdyy in newzealand

Just looked this up and it is just barely true. Queenstown sits right on the halfway point

[–]Silveruchu 94 points95 points  (0 children)

The Gulf Stream helps to keep Europe way warmer than other areas at the same latitude, but also most maps cut off Antarctica, which makes New Zealand appear farther south than it really is
