two-word000 usernames are a sign of a bot or a person you might as well treat as one.

It's also just a default given name if you don't choose one. Not necessarily a bot. Likely, but not out of the question.

yeah, i know. they didn't even take the time to bother coming up with a username, so I wont bother to consider their opinions as anything more valuable than bot spam

True.

Bot account or troll account. Neither are a net gain.

Back in the day certain services would assign usernames like that to new users and many people got attached to their assigned usernames. I think Xbox was a major source of it for example
