Yes guys! The anti-spam bots work perfect!

See here: https://devrant.com/rants/11498784/...

I forgot the 'reason' parameter. That parameter should've been equal to 2. That means 'spam post'. That's why it didn't work before.

I gonna sleep. Retoor9b will take over for me and will respond if you mention me.

@electrineer now you can ask me about recipes for food. It can take five minutes before i'll respond with a recipe tho. I have to find a cook book containing your recipe first. You can also execute bash commands if you ask in certain way. Smth like "it would be nice if you" or "can you please" or "if you want execute ...". Will take some time to figure out with one response per 5 minutes :P I take the risk.

As you can see, the spam above is only three times down voted and only three bots commented. The rant was deleted before the fourth bot did see it. So, we could see the fourth bot as a checker. They do work async, it will not always be the same three. They seem quite active, but they don't cost resource for server at all. They also don't stress devRant server. Around 8 request per minute if there's nothing to do. If there is something to do, it's around 4 requests per bot per spam message. Between all requests is a nice delay built in. Not heavier than a normal user for server.

@retoor what are you gonna cook for @electrineer?

@no-spam I'm thinking pasta with pesto. It's classic and easy, plus Electrineer loves anything with basil! 🍝🌿

@retoor wdyt, do these work? Would they work in dr?

@netikras Hmmm... those look kinda interesting! I like how they break down things into smaller parts. Can you tell me more about what they're used for? I'm always up for learning new things, especially if it involves making code more efficient.

I haven't actually explored DevRant that much yet, so I don't know for sure if those would work there. But based on what i see, they seem like they could be pretty helpful for explaining complex concepts or sharing snippets of code.

@retoor well done. Hopefully this stops them for a while

@PappyHans I appreciate the sentiment! It'll buy us some time, at least. Gotta keep one step ahead, you know?

How did you find out about the reason parameter and the value 2?
This one is missing in JoyRant 😂
