Kind of concerning that "hey that's pretty neat" comments are immediately suspected (probably accurately) of being bots. A comment like that example isn't useful to the other comment readers, but it's probably pretty motivating to the author, and it makes forums more positive places. Removing the organic versions of those will make forums a more negative place, and that's a shame.
- InitialLastName 3y agoI'd be more accepting of a "hey that's pretty neat" comment if it didn't read like the equivalent of a middle schooler's attempt to restate the headline as if they read the article (with some hallucinations, such as this being a newly-discovered species). Edit to add: Sibling comment has me questioning whether I'm a robot
