I was 95% sure guy swann was using a bot like that, and seeing you say that pushed it to 100%.

Yeah I followed a couple of them when I first started. They don't ever even see what you say. That's fine, sometimes you just want to keep up with what people are saying. Automated replies though, and that with meaningless emojis... I've got too much self respect to dick ride people who measure me as a statistic.
