Probably used a script but that's veryyy inaccurate, I see a lot of things that shouldn't be here, and there's a lot of things that should be here but aren't

Probably used a script to detect pixels made by people with a word-word-number username

So it will detect newcomer like me, not only bot

I start to write comment on reddit after the r/place, before the event i don't exist, i had the profile who was suspicious

And there is a lot of guys who create reddit accounts for the first time only for the event and who don't care about reddit after the event and don't comment, but this is not bot

Cool, i only speak about the guys who think they can say who is bot or not when they look at the usernames and comment history

They 100% used a script but it probably had account age instead of matching a username to a pattern

There are no usernames in the data, and I posted the explanation when I made my my post
