We have a Problem Here Folks. AI imitating humans here in this place.

Bot accounts are such a familiar complaint in the online world now. As technology continues to advance the bots are becoming more of a problem.

Usually if an account online is a bot they will: 

• Only write short sentences.
• Post just once or twice then never return.
• Post links.
• Stick to one subject and be unable to talk about something else.
• Reply quicker than a human generally could. 
• Not fill out their profile bio.
• When asked for more details about themselves be unable to answer
• Usually writes without separating their text.

All of the above is generally a red flag. Although I'm still not sure about fast replies as some people are just fast at replying. My WPM is v fast.

Forum puppets are a more common occurrence these days all across the internet. Usually it's trolls trying to discuss something that easily gets heated, baiting people in. Though not always... Like with bots though I just ignore them.

Forum puppets

I hadn't heard that term before.

Thank you for your analysis.

I think it's used by a lot of young people. Or it is on other forums I'm on anyway.

NP. I thought I'd say just in case some people don't know some of the signs.
