Ooo... I think we have a BBC bot. The submitter 'MiriamWeiner' only submits from BBC.com and does so about once a day. Never comments.
Very irregular pattern for a human, although perhaps not for a happy license-fee payer.
- ASalazarMX 8y agoPeople have many usage patterns. I prefer commenting rather than submitting, some people just lurk, others might submit without commenting. It wouldn't surprise me if there were people who just lurks and upvotes because downvoting requires participation.
- DmenshunlAnlsis 8y agoI lurked for four years before I finally wanted to submit something and bothered to make an account, then I started to really enjoy it. Patterns are not only varied, but changeable. I wouldn’t assume that someone was a bot either, maybe submitting one article a day is their way of giving back to a community they appreciate.
