"You" did no such thing.

Account blocked. Bot, or not.

Can anyone explain what is happening behind the scenes with the "room creation"?? That sounds intriguing. I understand OP is a bot but, is anything described here an actual way of trapping crawlers? How are the crawlers fooled by any of this?

What is this? It's really freaking me out.

If you see the same username every day, that means you are on every day.... only a spy would do that.

Suspected Chinese agent, possibly Russian

Comments accusing critics of being "Reddit Agents" are an indicator of a specific spammer. They are a proven operator of LLM-driven spambots. Two weeks ago one of their alts, sanitation@lemmy.today, left their prompt in the title and body of a post.

Post quantities are a big indicator. A stronger indicator in this case is that their only comment on this post is accusing people of being "Reddit Agents". That points to a specific spambot operator with multiple alts that refuses to declare any of them as bots. They had a malfunction two weeks ago that left their LLM prompt in a post.

Do the RSS feed bots also repost comments? Because I think something like that would be nice to have (kinda like bridging Discord to Stoat), just preferably implemented by instance runners and marked and credited accordingly.

He placed an invisible link on his website. Only visible by reading the page content (html).
Then the bots followed the link. This link lead to a page with 5 links (door) four links are dead and one leads to another page (level) with again 5 links.

I guess the links and pages are generated on the go. So the bots and crawlers may follow the links forever of they like.

Shit, sounds like me.

We can ruin our own instances thank you very much.

Thank you for your service!

Thank you very much :)

Is it possible to have the bots recursively give themselves instructions and birth child instances of themselves that do the same thing? Because if it's ai bots, that could absolutely be maliciously exploited.

You can serve zip bombs as web pages since most crawlers support gzip encoding.

And yes it's very effective ;)

Ah ok, thanks. How do you tag users?

As I told you on your other account, you are the one bringing reddit into the threadiverse.

Certain apps can do it, such as Summit or Boost. I believe it's also built into Piefed.

You can also usually just look up the top posts on Reddit via redlib and find the word for word post there, if you really wanted to be sure.

Iocane is software designed to do this

There's plenty of documented evidence of alt bots from moderators. Also, the lack of source link is a key factor in why people are interpreting your post that way.

They do not. Just the links. I think if it were to copy the comments it would be harmful to the community as you’d essentially be looking at a one-sided conversation. People could reply but you’d never get an answer back. I mean, if the source is linked in the description you could always just visit the original and read through them.

I'd guess that would depend on whether the link was one-way or two-way (with a bot posting fedi comments back to Reddit).

And yes, a one-way bridge would have its drawbacks, but I'd argue that this would still be a step up from just reposting the post, and incentivise making a Lemmy/Piefed account.

Yeah I don't know a single person who gets on the internet every day. I'm so uNiQuE and special!

Basic bitch detected

I appreciate the lead. Thank you

You hid the link? Really?

Meh. Ya welcome for content.

Accusing people of spamming when they given you content is an indication of a reddit agent that intentionally conflate those ideas with spam.

You are a spammer. You contribute nothing and drown out real users.

lol
what users - there is 1 post a week otherwise. each of those posts are reposts from somehwere else - reddit, twiter, facebook .
itsmemes bro - grow up

People might believe you if you provided the source or responded to anything other than to argue and dip

Voyager as well

Look at what they do there's absolutely nobody posting on lemmy and they're trying to ban the only active contributor.

who this is benefit clearly reddit.

They are not just complainers, they are provocateurs attempting to decontent free and open platforms

I'd rather have 1 post a week (it's more than that, but whatever) than someone like you who contributes nothing filling my feed with bullshit. You should just go back to reddit if you want the reddit experience.

You are not the only active contributor, in fact, you don't contribute anything of value, so drop that narcissistic line of thinking.

You are the one bringing reddit here where it is unwelcome.

we are all reddit refugees bro.
nono - I take reddit content and share with those in need. im a lemmy content jezus

block me. you will have what you want. Reddit agents whining is pathetic

This was a fun story. I masturbated. I did not finish, nor did I enjoy myself. At the same time, I have procured a thought sapling about slime molds, specifically how a specialized biological system could outperform a binary computer. This triggers a thought about quantum computing being better at logistics but shit at counting, for example. Information density directly correlates with the degree of topological entanglement, which means the möbiation of entanglement is itself the mechanism to not just encode additional density of information, but this information encoded can be parsed differently by different systems, to thus allow a multivariable set of instructions to exist in the same space. Thank you, I will take my Nobel Prize as a suppository.

There's more of that narcissistic attitude. You're a reddit content spammer, nothing more.

If you properly tagged your account as a bot, I wouldn't have to, and I'd never see your posts again. But you don't want that, you want to bring your karma farming bullshit here and refuse to properly tag anything. So I'll continue letting people know that you're just a low-grade spammer that consumes tons of LLM tokens just to fill our feeds with soulless content.

Need a digital Minotaur in these labyrinths

Ironic how this infographic is AI-generated.

If you are not a reddit shill you would just block me.
That's how you know you are talking to a reddit shill - they chose to whine and harass people actually contributing without adding any value themselves.

Karma? On lemmy? Who tf needs it? Your points are laughable

Apparently you need it. You don't contribute anything of your own except for these comments replying to everyone rightfully hating your effortless reddit reposts.

This whole "reddit shill" or whatever the fuck you're trying to say falls flat on its face when you're the one bringing reddit here.

Let me say it again: you contribute nothing and add nothing of value yourself because you just burn LLM tokens to spam our feeds. You cannot give context to your posts as you're not the original author. You cannot respond with anything positive to say because you use LLMs to do your posting.

Can you tell me one piece of original content you've posted that wasn't calling people reddit shills or agents?

It's also hilarious that you say that, because it immediately shows actual users what you're all about. So keep saying it! Keep calling actual contributors that.

We're probably about a decade away from the Blackwall, choom. (2 according to the sourcebooks, but I think Pondsmith may have been a little optimistic.)

I wonder if it's possible to trap bots like this and use them to mine crypto.

bruh there is enought content without u reposting, in fact i probably gona just block ur and miss nothing.

Literally people are only complaining because you post everything as "I did this I did that" no one would give a fuck if you just said you reposted it. But people want to have a discussion and think you actually did this stuff and get disappointed that no one ever answers them.

You're taking the entire discussion portion out of it.

I'm sure it might be possible but whoever would be doing this wouldn't let their secret out.

I've never even been on the internet

Big if true
