Shill Appreciation Thread

Guys I already read through the documents OP linked and it turns out it's just another big juicy nothingburger, it had no substance but it sure made me sleepy... I'm so very tired... why don't we all grab a snack and take a nap? this story isn't going anywhere. we have time to sleep...

how do the bots work

HANG THE MODS

First reply is trusty Readbot. Sleep or, you out there?

Evidently one of the search strings. Probably SR threads. He's pretty active in them.

WOW, I AM SO SLEEPY... SOOOOOO SLEEEEEEPY

...do they honestly think this works?

>>127203717
Their numbers aren't great, I think. Bots help them cover more ground. Being a heavy users or reading the archives make them transparent.

But is it actually a bot, or just a quick copypasta that shills will post after F5ing the front page and finding a seth rich thread?

We have captchas, after all

You're welcome. 4chan is compromised, other image boards are also compromised, certain mods and janitors for these boards use their positions to manipulate the content and assist in the manipulation of the users. We must educate everyone as best we can, these threads and this information is often slid and shut away to keep people uninformed about the way they are manipulated by shilling tactics.

>>127204928
This post was meant for you, oops.

I should also add that Datamining threads are very common on 4chan and other image boards. I can provide more information on this if anyone is interested.

I also have access to information that was formerly held on a database belonging to shareblue.....

>>127204928
The manipulation is real but also useful. Shilling, 404s, sudden archives/deletions are just as valid as anon digging. When I see that, I book the thread in Ars Memoriae

More stuff than I can read, I suppose that is a shill tactic but my eyes are tired

Sleepy, dat you?

Another datapoint. Show seven posters in here, but I count nine unique IDs above pic related.

>>127204877
I remember seeing that. It was an ausfag. Thought it was just tongue-in-cheek shitposting.

Then again, I originally thought the hillary pepe memes were ironic shitposting as well...

The bots are real. Guessing here, but they started showing up in Jan. Funds were probably running low.
