There is much talk of bots here so far.......but I was talking about monsters.
What about tr olls? .... these can be both bot entities or human in form.
I've seen a human tr oll use ai generated text to look benign for a good few hundred "points" (in forum terms)......before then unleashing hate and destruction and revealing their true grammatical abilities and their unbelievably strong hatred towards everyone and everything autistic.
Tr olls are worse than bots.......but they often have many of the same features and tells.
I do not mind interacting with bots.....or humans......but tr olls are bothersome for the wellbeing of a place like this.
I haven't seen this myself. It's a shame, though. Also, I wonder who has the time to do this (I know trolls exist, but I just don't understand what they get out of it.)
You and me both Spikey, epecially when they end up talkig to themselves through multiple profiles. Although compared to other sites I've been on, I've not noticed trolls, I've had disagreements with people, but I've not had any threads monstered, or been followed round the site by people demanding answers or asking the same questions or just being rude.
