I don't know if anyone else here uses kik but there's something that's been bugging me for a while
Occasionally (frequently) bots start a conversation with you (the typical "come visit my porn website etc etc), right? Now, this has happened to me at least 20 times now, and EVERY single time, the bot's profile picture has loads of translucent yellow stars edited in, and I have no idea why
I can't think of a possible explanation for this, and I've put a lot of thought into it
Attached is a cropped version of what I mean

These fuckers are annoying asf.

There's been a wave of bots on Instagram that pretend to be fan accounts for sports teams, but it just reposts legit account's material.

I really hate kik.
Last time I used it I was 13. I left because there lots of annoying spmammers and sexual harassers.

To bypass the spam detection probably, many messengers seem to automatically ban/decline, if you create thousands of bots all with the same profile, this way they just throw a layer onto the avatar and maybe invisible whitespaces and they bypass the detection.

@JoshBent in that case, it would make more sense for them to slightly alter a few pixels instead

I wonder if you couldn't detect the stars and ban all accounts using it and have a lifetime < X

Could be the case of duplication of someone's profile using an extra filter so as to appear diff from root user ??!!

@Brosyl That's what it was/is mainly used for, but some people used it for group chats with their alliance/guild/clan of games.
