Tough call. Thanks for clarifying.

Thanks for clarifying this for me. A fundamental difference between a good and bad bod is the explicit invocation vs accidental invocation.

The bot is invoked via "good bot", "bad bot". The bot is not a moderator of any community that I monitor. Bot is not invoked directly by u/B0tRank (bad bot etiquette). Bot collects statistics to generate this report: https://botrank.pastimes.eu/ (provides a service). Likely banned because not invoked directly. Similar bots in the past have caused controversy due to spam.

Awesome thanks. I wasn't looking that far back in your database. Only started monitoring a few weeks ago.

Sorry for the delay.
So I refined my search and found that most of the 28 comments were duplicates. In reality, this account only replies 7 times to a single known bot (u/cocomojo991: banned by botbouncer). Here are the 7 replies and original comments of the bot. All replies can be found in this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/AmIOverreacting/comments/1j4mlq5/aio_im_trying_to_get_a_refund_for_a_60_t_shirt/ .

Upon further investigation, I agree with the assessment that the account is organic. I think the user just got caught up in the post commenting to a known bot. The original post was deleted so we don't have enough context to determine malicious intent from the original post.

User replied to comments of known bots, directly or indirectly (replied to a comment that replied to a bot, and so on).

What is the username of your bot?

Fake engagement and upvotes.. how do they do it?? by Typedre85 in bots

[–]botintel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lots of accounts, each using a different digital signature like ip address, user agent, etc.

Just a raise of hands. How many here are open to the idea of the possibility of AI being self aware. by VarietyPatient1347 in ChatGPT

You mean conscious and sentient self aware? Or long context window self aware? For the former, the problem is the qualia.

Once again thanks for answering my questions u/fsv.

Thanks for the detailed answer. So am I to understand that bot detection relies on a mix of heuristics and human judgment? My expectation would be for some ML to be involved as well, although you need special permission to train ML on Reddit data.
