I don't want to talk to bots.

Yesterday, I answered to some buddy about mixing THC / CBD.

Today, I came back to see if there was any interaction with other people, and only then noticed the "crossposted from r/vaporents" thing.

Damn I feel awful. Not only did I take some of my personal tome to try and help some fellow vaporents, but also this person will never even know I tried to help.

I perfectly understand that we need some content here to attract new people / former redditors, but I do no wish this place to be a ghost town.

What do you think ?

I've done the same, but I will post a reply as though I'm answering for any lurkers that might come visit this sub at some point.

But I do agree with you - we should just make our own content. Maybe as this community takes off, we can disable that bot all together

Just as an FYI, as well: you can disable visibility of (self-proclaimed) bot accounts in your profile settings... But thanks for joining the community, and we look forward to creating fresh new content with you! Cheers, Loki

ya know, it would have probably helped had I had that box checked for that account.....

fml.

It's checked now though lmao.

100% agree, which is why:

The post you commented on and linked to is in 9 days old

That bot has been off for at least 4-5 days now.

If you don't want to talk to bots, make NEW posts :-)

It was to get something in here, exactly as you said. But that time passed.

We'll still be bringing the old-as-hell stuff onto this server somewhere, but it won't be continual bot reposts like that

I just joined the community and didn't pay attention to the dates.

I'm glad this bot is off now.

Will be around participating.
