MODERATORS
Whenever I look at the comments of a Gamer's Nexus video, Steve often remarks on the hordes of bots he banned, but when I go to other videos, I usually am unable to tell what's real and what's fake. I guess that the commenters that have scantily-clad women as their profile picture probably aren't real, but are there other signs that I can look out for? Naturally, I don't attach more than a grain of credibility to YouTube comments, but I just want to really get a feeling of just how botted they are.
