MODERATORS
Why do you think you're able to detect a bot by their Reddit comments? I strongly suspect you're assuming low-effort, poorly-written comments are bots, when in reality they're probably just dumb people.
I am 72 years old and I have been on Reddit for 20 years.
I can tell when key words are suppressed by posting the same thing without using those key words.
I'm not just watching what they say, I'm watching what they do, and how FAST they do it.
I've been on Reddit for decades too, and I disagree with you.
Assuming that a post wasn't made and made visible because it has key words that were censored isn't based on logic; you're guessing.
I type fast enough that to a 72 year old it might look like magic or a bot.
So...you don't think I used logic for my guesses.
You guessed wrong.
You're asserting you know what isn't posted to Reddit and why, based on a hunch, citing your age.
I don't think that's a logical position, no.
