What is something someone can gain by swarming an instance or forums like yours with bots? I cant wrap my head around it. Also if someone has an instance and swarms it with bot accounts, it may seem like you got a popular instance but where is the revenue if there are noone who is able to click an ad? Do they do it just for the lols?
I wonder how people come up with the bot superstition? Just a feeling or is there any valid indication of massive influx of bot accounts?
I somehow cant see the pictures? Is this a kbin app bug?
