why? is that forbidden? I like to post and I post.
lemme post more - im gonna rapid post
dont be like reddit users - enjoy free memes and ask for more free memes ;)
Sorry, I mean the more you post the less attention you get. People just lose interest if they see your username constantly but never in any discussions.
Also there’s people like me who are just always trying to figure out who’s using sock accounts and I obviously assumed the worst
yeah very fair. thanks for the advise. I mainly going to repost from reddit. I hate reddit and my plan is to get as much content on lemmy as possible so I never have to use reddit again.
However if Lemmy is flooded with posts made by a small handful of people it just looks like another bot farm. Try to post like a human - space things out a bit. If your Lemmy client app doesn’t support post scheduling, consider using a different app.
Not necessarily posting images right off the bat. It’s suspect but not certain. I was kind of being a dick there. But rattling off hot question posts in their first month on ask lemmy? Yeah that’s 100% farm behavior
• posting exclusively in the one main meme community,
• the post of a single political-pretending-not-to-be political meme (this one), and
• the exactly 2 comments made ever,
are all also very suspect, many bots act in this exact way, and then abandon the account for a couple months to let it age. It seems fishy to me too.
But it is very possible that it is just someone overenthusiastic, and new to the fediverse, so let’s not take up arms, better to let a few bots slip than make real people bounce away I think.
Let’s see at least if they respond, or abandon the account, to judge.
Right, 4 day old account that immediately began posting images.
You sure you don’t want to head over to asklemmy?

Nah not forbidden. Go off, my guy. But remember diminishing returns

Yes, good goal.

Is that something bots do?

For the record,
• the burst-posting (3 images at a time),
• generic memes,
• account in one of the biggest instances,
• posting exclusively in the one main meme community,
• the post of a single political-pretending-not-to-be political meme (this one), and
• the exactly 2 comments made ever,

do you guys care? i like posting not commenting
You’re probably right. I’m pretty sure now I did this exact thing, like I wanted to make sure there was a post on both 196 communities every day.
Sorry for being hasty, @[email protected].
