Our most recent troll, *&@$%^#&***, you.

I always thought it would be fun to make a troll account bot that is interfaced with some kind of AI engine and just let it roam free. Could be entertaining, but don't think it would last long. Too much work for something that would only last a night.

You mean one different than your Red Squirrel troll account bot?😱

I actually just got a email from a very high-up moderator, who gave me this juicy bit of Top Secret information:

There are only two unique IPs posting in this thread. Sock puppets....sock puppets, all of youz!

I'm not sure that you would need the I bit of AI.
Some people are incorrigible and they manage without the I perfectly well.

I don't see the big deal, is it really so hard to ignore unfunny trolls?

Oh who am I kidding? Between the people that don't know any better, the windowlickers that can't help themselves, and the meta trolls, terrible trolls will be with us forever... or until they get banned. Actually that reminds me, someone's ban just expired and I haven't noticed anything about lions yet, maybe I just missed it...

I think I solved the riddle 😛

I would say I have to agree, the skill of this troll is poor. Having 70 out of your first 240 posts be original threads is not a way to build a reputation and trust within the community, to exploit later when you switch to troll mode.

If you take into consideration that the majority of the post count is either original threads (see above) or responses to people in those threads, along with the ATOT-specific knowledge the poster has, it could easily lead one to believe it is either a sock-puppet account, or a RBM.

Trolls like to start their own threads because it gives them far more return on their time investment, due to higher visibility. Nobody who is only on a forum to bust balls wants to sit around and wait for maybe only one person to respond to a troll-post that is buried within an ongoing thread.

A half-assed attempt to hit almost every sub-forum, with purposeful threads such as "Why do they call it a motherboard?" in the motherboard forum is too amateur to even be called "Rookie."

Are we just witnessing the very early learning phase for a future actor that under a different name could reach the ranks of CasioTech, or dare I say TFP? I don't know, but I do know that if this troll was a Cabernet, I'd say put the shit back in the cellar and let it age because it is not ready for the ATOT table.

My post are sincere.

I appreciate the feedback. Again, I just want a new home. The place where I came from is way to negative even if I was banned

The trick is to use an AI engine that needs to learn first. You make it read only P&N posts, once it has learned enough, then you set it free. Actually, duplicate the database first, then set multiple free. It's like releasing a herd of zombies. They'll be arguing with themselves and others.

I almost want to try that as an experiment to see what happens. It needs to also be a worm that can infect unpatched XP machines.
