    What is a bot?

    And is there one posting all over the forum lately? Inquiring minds want to know, seriously.
    “Fathom the hypocrisy of a government that requires every citizen to prove they are insured…but not everyone must prove they are a citizen. And now, any of those who refuse, or are unable, to prove they are citizens will receive free insurance paid for by those who are forced to buy insurance because they are citizens.”

    Evidently, it is a program incapable of answering a direct question, why such programs are tolerated is a mystery. Is the Matrix actually real?

    It's basically a robot which automatically posts in various internet websites such a forums, etc. Some bots plant malwear (sp) and other nasty bugs into computers. At least that's what I've been told. I tend to ignore bots and eventually they usually away or are blocked by mods, ect.

    Think 3rd party for 2024 folks. Clean up America.

    Once I tell you that we agree to disagree there will be no more discussion between us in the thread so please don't waste your time continuing to argue your points because I will not respond.

    Wish they would hurry up, I aint gonna click any more threads, I suggest others don't either. Mods, please see if this program can answer a direct question. A human may have registered but it is evident, one is not posting.

    A bot is a software application that goes out across the Internet collecting information for search engines like Google. Bots don't post.

    This poster is extremely prolific (threads within minutes) but I have yet to see it conversate at all.

    On the forum 3 days, 69 threads, just posting headlines, no direct conversation, just repetitious responses, are you sure @Chris ? They may have evolved.

    na3 started 15 threads on the first page of U.S. politics: for you techies, I guess it's NBD. But to someone like me, it's Twilight Zone all over again.
    Can anything be done to stop it?
