Super awesome to see the same threads for weeks and weeks only for it to be a bot spamming random links no one cares about!
>>131974119the bot isn't going to stop until the threads reach the bump limit
Those are just the beginning
>>131974119board is dead.
>complaining about one of the only threads where people are posting music and not just gooning to pictures of pop idols
Dead internet theory is proven right once again.
they had a similar problem on /his/ so the mods set it that threads there autosage when they're one week old. also on /vr/ threads autosage at two weeks old. those are the only boards i'm aware of with this feature.
This board is dead, what do you expect.
The bot has been making these threads for months.
I'm glad I'm not the only one noticing these blatantly obvious bot threads.
Its a bot program to make the board seem more active.
>>131974195I don't think it makes the threads, but it does hijack certain thread types.
>>131974119this board is dead.
>>131974228You can't make a thread about electronic music or the bot will hijack it.
>>131974174autosages fucking suckthey also autosaged /tg/ and /pw/
>It's the "'guy who gets mad at cartoons' music" thread
schizo thread. threads only last that long because the board traffic is at an all time low and people just drop in links of songs they like without putting in much effort to discuss shit. Ive posted two links myself in that stoner thread and im not a bot
>>131974119Also the only threads that actually post music on the music forum. Figures /mu/ would bitch about those threads, not enough softcore porn or decade-old jokes, huh?Though I will say, fuck that guy who spams Spotify links. I have Spotify, but C'mon! What's the point of sharing music if it's blocked behind a paywall. Share YouTube links, anons.
>>131974294>What's the point of sharing music if it's blocked behind a paywallSpotify isn't behind a paywall? dont know what the fuck you are talking about, a simple adblocker works
>>131974284it totally is a bot especially because all the pics it posts have the same iPhone filename
>>131974174the Offroad General thread on /o/ has been up since September 12
>>131974319Are you saying I can't post from my phone without being considered a bot?
>>131974319Now that you point it out it is a bit strange. Its either a dedicated autist or a bot.
>>131974391no human poster could post at that rate
>>131974307>Just go through extra steps to listenOr just post the YouTube link and save everyone time. It's basic forum decency, and always has been.
>>131974391dude its a bot its been happening for ages. the filenames, the fact that it fetches random topster charts from either the archive or reddit or somewhere and posts them on the hour every hour, its obviously a bot
>>131974155>encouraging the thread where no one (bots aren't alive in case you forgot) is spamming music no one is listening to
>>131974246the one time it happened to me was when i made a thread about nu metal and it got hijacked by the bot
>>131974423>>131974421Ok you are probably right since it never posts anything but links. They have gaps of up to like 10 hours though, its not every hour on the hour.
>>131974456Three other reasons to be sure it's a bot>They bump the threads right before they're about to archive>Never actually says anythingMost important, it's never been deleted for spamin fact complaining about it is more like to get you in trouble
The replies in those threads are hours apart and spaced out, though. The ones in Kpop or Wpop literally reach the triple digits in less than an hour. I'd rather have those threads up than someone remaking the same template threads: The Beatles / boyband pasta fag, Scaruffi review pasta fag, "Band just changed our name" pasta fag, Pepe spam in general, /pol/ spam in general, Single Kpop artists having their own dedicated general outside the Kpop general, etc. I'd get this if the bot threads were being bumped every 5 minutes, but they are literally low energy and low effort bumps every few hours compared to the waifufag threads being spammed or the template threads being reposted on and on while less active threads are bumped off the catalog if no one else is around to post and watch them before they prune. And most of all, at least they have music in them, it isn't some coomer just jerking off to a female idol or pop star. Our most reposted images here are often just more idols and pop stars.https://desuarchive.org/mu/statistics/image-reposts/
>>131974272Here's hoping the rape thread lives a long full life.
>>131974478How did I not notice this before, so many threads are just being necrobumped by this bot. it runs the OP through a prompt and then posts all the albums and songs the AI gives it to
we all know the K-Poop threads are botted. also most posts in them are totally incoherent gibberish.
also the Emily Armstrong thread is definitely a bot
>>131974518The threads are better but I don't want to see posts made by a robot, if it isn't getting enough posts just let the thread die instead of endlessly necrobumping. Its sad that /mu/s traffic is so low but its ever sadder that we have bots spamming random links
>>131974523All the threads pictured have been hijacked by the bot. Note: I'm not including Kpoop, Wpoop, or any other form of waifu cancer
/Classical/ also has a bot that spams music links. At least they had the curtesy to have it include random factoids sometimes>>131972392>>131973790>>131967609>>131967382>>131966675>>131966762>>131964300>>131962032>>131961903>>131958478
>>131974624the lastfm one is weird, why is it just spamming random accounts
>>131974624I've never really had threads of mine hijacked by the bot, idk what exactly triggers it.
>>131974747Requests are the quickest, easiest guarantee
>>131974223Why are they trying to hide the fact the board is dead? The bot posts cause the opposite, less engagement actually
>>131974687That's fucked up
>>131974624>>131974687>>131974964Why do you guys think the Last.Fm thread is botted? It's just people posting their profiles, and most of the time they are actively listening to music when they post. Seems real to me. I would normally assume it's an unfunny joke, but there's a whole lot of retards here, especially in this thread, so I can't give you the benefit of doubt. Why are you guys so mad threads don't die in a couple hours? I personally like that there's not a mad dash to bump threads every couple hours, lest they get archived for more waifu spamming posts.
>>131974119During the entire year of 2026, /mu/ never went above 13000 posts a day. On average, we receive less than 9 posts a minute. Of those, at least half go to you know damn well which threads, and the rest are mostly unfunny shitposts.Our recorded peak was in February 2nd, 2013 with 45300+ posts that day.Make of this what you will.
At least they're sharing music in those threads. Im the OP of the Halloween-core thread and its honestly depressing how little engagement my threads got. You used to be able to give anons a theme and people would enthusiastically share and discuss music but those days are clearly long gone because everyone left on this board is either too apathetic or stupid or both to ever care
>>131975206Its always the same type of filename + link with no further comment. You can tell who the real people are because they actually say something. All the bot pics are also of cartoons in that thread
>>131974119>wants to improve board quality>makes duplicate meta complaining thread #9827
>>131974119What do we do about this fat autistic Paki faggot?
>>131975515I get accused of being the bot quite often because i just post album covers and songs, usually in threads where the OP is literally asking for songs, and I usually have little to say about anything, but i don't have the iphone filenames and I will respond if someone replies to my posts.
>>131975652How about you shut the fuck up and leave dad out of this
>>131974119At least the bot is posting music 90% of this board is pleb gooners every other day some new populist general is made. Hayley is spammed and sometimes extra spammed, now there is Maggie Rogers there is always /wpop/ shit leaking out and threads that talk about music get spammed with “not music” or “p4k trash” with no follow up elaboration at all. The board is ruled by mentally ill chud incel gooners that sperg out over the idea of music being posted or discussed as if it encroaches on their gooner braindead shit.
>>131975898There is nothing wrong with a Haylsey or Maggie Rogers thread from time to time
>>131975937It isn’t time to time, it’s all the time just like all the other gooner shit the board has turned into a glorified /bant/ thread and I know there’s jannies here because they deleted my /mu/ humor thread a few days ago.
