These sorts of bots aren't that uncommon and have been going on years. In fact, they're probably more prolific than most people realise as they're often very difficult to spot and can go unnoticed for quite some time, especially with the amount of shitposts we have around here where they can easily blend in.


Accounts still have potential ranks and activity will still be valuable so people will just farm them and concentrate on getting the merit points at a later date.
