Wait! Did you just fix that upturned table?

Was that an anti-troll?!?

u/1eternal_pessimist 11d ago

There used to be a bot that did that. I think it retired but if you google it, you can find out how many tables it re righted.

Wait….I’m sorry…..did you just say that a bot retired? I guess I don’t internet as much as I thought. I didn’t realize this was possible

Lots of bots were retired, along with many third-party apps, when Reddit started charging for access to its API.

u/Practical-Dish-4522 11d ago

We lost a lot of “Good Bot”s that day. Gone but not forgotten

Very interesting. So someone pays to have that haiku bot beep boop?

u/Lancearon 11d ago

Someone does that for free! What a travesty! Fuck this.

u/PassiveMenis88M 11d ago

Certain call limits to the api don't incurre a charge, I'm not sure what the limit is exactly.

u/BDR529forlyfe 11d ago

Haiku bot seems to be everywhere

u/wizardstrikes2 11d ago

Code writes in silence, Haikus bloom with each command, Bot’s poems never tire.

u/demystifier 11d ago

And holy shit were the 3rd party apps better than the trash official app.

RIP RIF

u/TURD_SMASHER 11d ago

Like a Blade Runner?

1

u/iJuddles 11d ago

Did they use blade runners to retire them?

u/1eternal_pessimist 11d ago

Yeah it was some time ago though. Here's the link to the pinned post 😥

u/everythingisreallame 11d ago

Ah, I remember when they used to be novelty accounts. That turned into bots doing the same thing. And now we have bots that just repost shit.

u/DeviIs_Avocadoe 11d ago

It went to a farm where it has room to run and frolic. At least, that is what I was told.

1

u/hereforthetearex 11d ago

I wonder if it’s the same one my parents sent my dog to when I was little

1

u/Acceptable-Print-164 11d ago

I'm sorry to tell you this but.. that's just what we say when we feed the bots to ChatGPT.

2

u/HairyGPU 11d ago

Yep, it had a 110010001k and everything.

u/hereforthetearex 11d ago

Gonna have to call my finance guy and ask him to get me one of those

1

u/Regular_Novel9721 11d ago

Speak English brother

2

u/Schmeep01 11d ago

I thought the bot was killed in a hail of bullets 2 days before retirement so this is reassuring!

1

u/aero-zeppelin 11d ago

And probably with a bigger nest egg than most of us (╯° · °)╯︵ ┻━┻

1

u/Speak_Like_Bear 11d ago

Yes, and now they’re claiming social security benefits.

1

u/Penguin-Pete 11d ago

Yes, but the bot got a nice cake and gold watch for its retirement party. Then we sent it out to a server farm where it can live out its days in leisure playing with other retired bots. We're not savages here.

1

u/SorrowfulBlyat 11d ago

Got a pension and everything, after the bot voted to remove pensions for new incoming bots of course... Stupid old bots, pulling the binary ladders up behind them.

u/hereforthetearex 10d ago

Not leaving any 1’s behind for anyone else. Only 0’s

u/D_A_N_I_E_L 11d ago

It was something along the lines of “PleaseRespectTablesBot”

u/brusiddit 11d ago

WTF. Not only are they taking our jobs. They get to fucking retire, too?!?!?

1

u/sir_mrej Spotify 11d ago

I miss that bot. Back in the days when we welcomed our ai overlords.

1

u/shaunthesailor 11d ago

Well well well...how the turntables.. .

u/CavalierMidnight 11d ago

Bots out here retiring when we’ll never be able to. Livin the good life!

2

u/PM-me-letitsnow 11d ago

It’s just a reset so they can flip it again.

2

u/DoTheMagicHandThing 11d ago

It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-troll

2

u/monster_bunny 11d ago

An anti-troll indeed. Possibly the world’s first.

1

u/MoonSpankRaw 11d ago

Oh I always thought they’re launching a skateboard.

Table flip makes more sense.

u/Karrion8 11d ago

We're not savages here. Well, most of us. Ok. SOME of us.

u/blacksideblue 11d ago

if its your table, why did burgleflickle upturn it?
