    I'm just wondering how long before aristarchus or someone else decides to automate their harassment

    How are you so sure that he has not - perhaps just not in the way you are imaging.

    maybe it already happened?

    There are AI bots hitting us all of the time.

    Different AC, but I'm not convinced it has been automated. I've dealt with automated bots of all kinds and they don't behave the way that poster seems to act from the information I have available. I think the manual posting, along with making many posts easy to identify, is a part of the ritual behavior. Otherwise, sheer annoyance would be easier to achieve and more effective using other means.

      Indeed. I have considered automated posting and discarded it. While it would be karmic I do not want to use such negative methods. I let the truth speak louder, and every easy click of censorship hides legitimate effort. For me at least, and let me use the stolen symbol of satisfaction ;^)

        ;^) Stolen symbol of satisfaction? Is this the Guy Fawkes mask of the aristarchoi? From V for Vendetta, and C for Censorship? So you are he?

    A well crafted AI bot is like a rhetorical neutrino.
