This is why I’m for “bullying”. Dislikes were considered bullying so they got rid of the count. We stop “bullying” and people get out of hand. Bullying exists for a reason. Keeps people in their place. Harassing is a different thing. Telling a kid with ADHD if they keep poking you they’re going to be punched in the chest? It’s not bullying. If the kid keeps poking nobody can be mad when he gets his gut punched in. Even with ADHD you learn to just stop being a nuisance AFTER experiencing direct consequences after being warned. I was labeled with ADHD from 3 years old. I moved in with more responsible parents that actually ground their kids and take their things. I no longer have ADHD. And yes I learned by gut punch and more. I wouldn’t learn any other way. I’m hard headed and I know I’m not the only one. Bring back bullying not harassment. Punishment is lacking these days. And it shows. I don’t enjoy punishment and bullying. So in turn I stopped acting like a fool. I could only fight against it so long until I had to grow up
It's hilarious that these bots are allowed to spam the same message 1000 times while at the same time regular human comments get auto-censored for being too controversial

"Are you sure you want to post this comment? It has words that violate our community guidelines against bullying and harassment" [Post anyway][edit comment]
A big problem is that UA-cam uses Google translate. And it's terrible. So people read my comments in another language that are mistranslated and get upset and write nasty comments to me that have nothing to do with what I said.
My problem with UA-cam disabling comments is how they're using the "content for children" excuse to push inappropriate content towards children without any pushback from people .
One of my videos had comments turned off even though I was 20 in that video and the person I commentated on was 23. *I even had a full beard and the algo still detected me as a kid*
@@DivanCelloI’m a teen and when I used to make videos they all got comments disabled so I constantly had to Re-Enable my comments because it detects me as too young or somthing. The main thing that I hated about them disabling my comments was, I love criticism, it’s the best way to figure out what my viewers like and what they don’t like. And the algorithm killed my channel and I got 0 views in 3 months so I quit.
yep i thought we already had youtube kids for the children, but they want to heavily censor this platform while allowing the same inappropriate stuff for the people that shouldnt be seeing it. and also the p word for map the other p word is censored so now we know who runs both platforms since yt is owned by same company
@@soldier22881who does run it? Many times it seems as if it is an actual person affecting my comments. All of them are messed with in some way & there's no reason for it. I see so much hate & racism in comments, esp on certain channels- that it is obviously not just an algorithm created by our personal interests... it is being designed to allow division between people & also very biased in how they do so. Which is why I asked, who is it? It isn't just bots spamming the problem is deeper than that.
I hate the bots that copy someone else's comment and have a bikini model profile pic with an phishing ad on the profile. No one seems to realize it's a bot.
It doesn't surprise me nobody seems to realize. People amaze me with their general lack of awareness even outside the Internet. Them not realizing a bot with a bikini picture doesn't surprise me at all.
@@trealiare you talking about OP? Because they've had their account for 13 years lol... Likely not a bot, or they REALLY are playing the long con here with this account..
A few months ago, I stumbled upon some UA-cam comment bots where one bot would start a thread about some kind of amazing product, and then the other bot comments would follow up with, "Absolutely Joe, this product works wonders." I was so confused as to what was going on the first time I saw it. And it would be like 10 or 20 different accounts that would be talking about this product that was completely unrelated to the video. I would then finally see a few human comments towards the end, where they would say something like "wtf is up with these bots?" So yea the problem is pretty bad here.
Seen a lot of bots promoting psychedelics like some sort of magic cure, which is quite dangerous when one does take such substances without the correct mindset and preparation.
I've seen them for years and they always mention some person on whatsapp/snapchat that earned them some unrealistic amount of money, I always report the OP and the 15 others playing along
I absolutely agree, that's why I trust John Dickstain to do all my online shopping, John has a proven track record and has been shopping for 20 years. Its actual amazing how well he shops and does other things like shopping. thanks Janice, I'll call him today.
UA-cam can insta-remove a comment on the vaguest notion that it is inappropriate, and yet it can't stop spam bots. Glad to see they have their priorities straight.
Literally this, 1/3 my comments go poof with not a single bad thing about them but this shit is somehow getting past? Almost like youtube is purposely letting these comments fly. Probably best to assume what is malice to incompetence.
My "theory" is that accounts have some kind of hidden reputation. Get into a heated discussion, call someone dumb and now you accrued "bad reputation" on your account. It never goes away and only increases. (All comments I make that include links gets deleted. All of them. Nothing I can do about it, my account is flagged) A new account on the other hand is completely clean. If you wanna post questionable stuff, you just create new accounts over and over again.
I stopped paying for Premium because they hid my comments. I even checked and there was nothing "offensive" in them. Meanwhile others posted absolute vitriol and the comments rose to the top.
I found that sometimes it's the reply tag that gets flagged! I made a comment about Minecraft a little while ago and the comment kept getting deleted... Turned out that it was the channel's *USERNAME* in the reply tag getting flagged....
@@Lonaticus Yeah I couldn't believe it when I tested it out. Removing the tag was the only edit I did to the comment too. I tried it again on a Spore video and sure enough, the reply tag was getting flagged again.
@@mark8200 Agreed. If the UA-camr doesn't want certain kinds of comments they can go into their settings and filter out those words themselves. No need for UA-cam to backseat moderate.

I had that happen to me in a NeebsGaming video. The goddamned bot stole everything I wrote word for word and they got dozens of thousands of like whereas I got like 4 and a comment saying I stole the others comment.

I be having such a good time after watching a super interesting video and then finding a really interesting comment that makes me want to initiate a conversation and then you just see all those spam comments under them from spamming slurs, to spreading illegal material, to just flat out saying heinous things just because and it wipes literally any smile from my face and I just move on with my day..
Yes, a classic from UA-cam. Making their great effort to force people to stop using Adblock but forgetting to clean their platform of the garbage that rot the place....
Case in point, this reply section. Brief reminder, don’t engage with the bots. if word of mouth serves me well, engagement through direct replies tells their creator that they are working and more bots will be generated. Edit:Most of the bot comments appear to have been removed from this thread, (the bots still remain, see user titled: Blue-qr4fi) I wonder how long that will last.
I remember when I noticed the bot comments getting really dark. It actually kinda made me feel gross reading some of that shit even though I know there’s no human behind it.
The rage bait ones are awful, but the more weird ones are the ones on the financial videos where someone says some variation of "I've been blessed, x person made me 1 million dollars in 6 months with stocks I would recommend them". and they have a bunch of bot's reply that they also made that money and sometimes the bot's act skeptical and then turn around to believing it it's quite weird especially since they tailor it to the video a lot of the time.
If I was more bored I would check those and see how many identical comment chains I could identify... Second sad thing is to see days crypto coin pump and dump...
I much prefer the dumb money or sex bots over the straight up vulgar bots. they're easier to ignore and more obvious, 20% of the time a uttp bot is actually not a bot and a 3 year old with too much ipad time.
What annoys me is people commenting "patrolling the mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter" on any and every video even remotely related to fallout new vegas at all. Or people that comment about the amount of butter or sugar used in cooking vids
Even if they do step in, I half expect something to go wrong and youtube start flagging legit human ppl's comments while the bots are still somehow all over the place un-affected.
Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest! When Tumblr banned n-dity, the AI started flagging a bunch of stuff that contained skin colors. Like selfies someone posted, for example. It was crazy.
I am so frustrated about the censoring of comments. I get pretty much all of my comments deleted. THEN some comment speaking about the absolute worst, is not taken down. *PS* I pay for Premium every month, too so I’m paying to be told what I can and can’t say.
some of these bots link directly to downloads of actual cp, i think the best course of action is to go after youtubes advertisers, inform them about youtubes lack of prevention in stopping this, and once the advertisers pull out and the only thing youtube cares about is in danger, then they might just fix it
@@4R3al85 It worked when Elsagate got out of hand. Other large businesses threatened to pull the money plug, and it lit a fire under YT's rear. And they actually stepped up and did something about it.
Thank you!!!!! I report disgusting bot comments all the time and I've been so mad youtube has let this go on. The bots talk about CP and animal abuse among other things and I'm tired of seeing that.
This is why they're running more ads. Advertisers are pissed at how many bots there are. They don't wanna pay UA-cam a bunch of money if they don't even know how many ads are reaching actual humans instead of bots. So UA-cam, instead of actually scrubbing the bots off the platform, just crams in more ads. To UA-cam, the bots make the platform feel more alive and get actual users to engage more with the videos. These bots can also artificially inflate views on certain channels to set certain trends and even influence public opinion. The elections are a prime example of this. Its a double edged sword, because unless UA-cam actually regulates which bots they allow (which they might) then someone with access to lots of bots could help influence an election against what UA-cam actually wants. But back to the advertisers. If an estimated 1/3 of users are bots, tripling the ads would help ensure the advertisers get what they pay for in terms of actual human views and engagement. Plus, UA-cam also maintains the level of engagement on videos by not getting rid of bots, and the potential influence these bots have on society if they do regulate them for ideological reasons. Since the users have no power at all over UA-cam policy, it will be up to the advertisers, who actually are the source of funding, to threaten pulling their ads if UA-cam doesn't actually clean up the bots. The crazy thing is Google is actually REALLY GOOD at identifying bots and spam. They must be doing this on purpose. The censorship of human comments is just fuel for more conspiracy. (Copying this comment before posting because of its likely removal)
However, that doesn't mean that it won't be the end of the world because thanks to the one and the only ThioJoe. He made his own program that allows creators to clean up their comment sections. It's YT Spammer Purge.
It’s all over twitter now, I used to love hitting the hidden section on Twitter and reading the unhinged comments. Now you open that you might see some messed up things happening that should never be accessible to anyone that isn’t looking for it.
I was unfortunate enough to see those comment bots that were sharing CSAM. Seeing those comments make me sick to my stomach. I tried reporting those comments, but it seems like they never go away. UA-cam NEEDS to step up their moderation.
I noticed that when I tried to copy one of the comments when reporting the channel. Once I managed to include all the control characters it showed correct at least to me. I hope it'll show up correctly when (or if) a moderator will take a look.
It's not only the bots. I can't really comment anymore. Like more than half of my comments get disappeared. I wouldn't be suprised if no one will see this comment.
I called someone an idiot and got reported for cyberbullying. comment was removed.. im not saying we should go back to the days of accounts roleplaying as hitler but come on..
The people doing this are a group known as the "UTTP" They started off in the early 2010s as a trolling group full of 13 year olds that played a huge role in the Goanimate/vyond community. But now, they resurged and are worse than ever. This isn't trolling. This is criminal behavior.

@@BaitPolice It's beyond ragebait, the bots are promoting CSAM (Child Sexual Abuse Material), Gore , and Terrorism via their Discord links and Discord, UA-cam, and the feds are dropping the ball for some reason on stopping it. Reports can only do so much sadly.

Ah come on, man. There's real people out there. Like me. I have human skin and everything. ...no but seriously this is getting ridiculous. The damn internet is a trash heap now.
Bots get away with having literal ass pictures as their pfp, yet I say even the most tepid of things, the most milquetoast of insults and it gets auto-deleted.
I don’t know if this counts, but the bots are so cancerous it’s insane. I’ve seen bots drop the Hard R and the F Bag without symbols. It’s also disgusting to see bragging on how they beat a dog or did the diddy to kids. It’s revolting
UA-cam is more worried about me calling someone a "POS" or an "Idiot" than fixing real harmful spam. I'll be watching a Police Bodycam video and sometimes I'll leave a comment about the criminal saying "What a POS" etc. then a few minutes later I'll get a community guidelines pop-up saying i'm "Cyberbullying and Harassing" and my comment was removed. Most of the time it says if I continue to do it I could lose my account and that's it but, sometimes I'll get a ban where I can't comment for 24 hrs. This to me is absolute BS! Anybody can say whatever they want in videos, say things I wouldn't dream of saying, but I call the criminal in the bodycam video a name and they say I'm cyberbullying and harassing them? YT can GF themselves!
Sounds like someone manually reported you. I've said plenty of crazy shit and had countless comments disappear, but never received a message/warning like that.
The same thing happened to me. I insulted someone without even using any vulgar language and my account was immediately threatened with deletion. If you want proof check my community tab
UA-cam is willing to spend an absurd amount of time and effort trying to punish us for blocking shitty ads, but refuses to give a shit about bots advertising cp on their platform; and this kind of shit is why I don't pay for UA-cam premium.
The other day I caught this bot advocating "maps" (UA-cam won't let me use the actual word" on everyones comment. Saying kids can consent and it should be normalised. Seriously people need to speak out more on these bots they're getting out of hand. And just like that they're already in the replies to other comments talking about CP......
It's crazy how bots get to have their comments left up, yet if I just say a single sweary swear, regardless of whether it is negative or aimed at another person or not, it's immediately thanos'ed
Add left wing extremists to that list. People can post comments calling for Trump supporters to be jailed and for the news to be nationalized "so Trump can't win" and those stay even after reports, but my comment asking people to realize how hypocritical and bigoted they are gets deleted.
My comment was deleted and all three of the spam comments I reported 20 minutes ago are still up. I should probably give up on UA-cam comments at this point. UA-cam is too terrified of real liberalism to be able to run a platform like UA-cam effectively. It will probably never get better.
@@awesomeferret dude what is even happening right now... I'm perplexed. And somehow there is another even worse comment by a bot in my replies ughhhh Well not to compare the two things like that, but still... why can't I delete my own comments' replies??? 😭😭😭😭😭 Is this some sort of sick joke? it's getting so out of hand bro
It's beyond me that bots can spam texts that basically tell people to unalive themselves or that advertise cp, and nothing happens. Yet actual people's comments immediately disappear for no good reason. This whole platform is such a mess and it's absolutely annoying. It discourages people from saying anything and the creators suffer because less comments mean less fodder for the algorithm.
Idea: Bring the illegal and hard R comments up to UA-cam's biggest advertisers. If ad revenue is going to drive the platform, make sure the advertisers know exactly what kind of platform they're associating with.
Re-watched and commented to bump this in the algorithm. You know YT is eventually coming with a solution that's gonna screw over the honest content creators and commenters.
Really appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We take reports like this very seriously & we work hard to action violative content when made aware. We're passing this along so our team can take a further look & handle next steps. Thanks, again.
Oh they can, but they’d rather crack down on those pesky adblockers. We need to start sending evidence of these disgusting comments to FBI or something, someone who actually cares about this stuff since UA-cam clearly doesn’t
*The way these comments don't get detected by auto moderation is that they add a special character that makes it have a right to left rendering for the text, and they type the comment in reverse, so to the automod it just looks like gibberish*
The worst part is, that its childplay to write obfuscation code like that and hard to write code detecting all those possible variations. I think its impossible
@@ersetzbar.UA-cam probably doesn’t care because it doesn’t lose them money. Probably even artificially inflates the platforms numbers which can’t be bad for business.

What really sucks about bots is when you have a platform where bots repost the exact same things which other people have said to just farm karma points or whatever the heck bots need to masquerade themselves as live people to the point that you can't actually discover the original person who made the comment. it just leads to a distrust of the social media platform your in because there is no intelligent discussion to be had.

Interesting, my issue is the exact opposite. I generally stoped commenting since it feels like my comments just constantly get deleted (maybe for swearing? Idk. I heard every youtuber can blacklist certain words) but I have no idea what these are. Especially when getting into debates I’ve had a bunch of comments just deleted immediately. Which makes a back and fourth interaction very hard and honestly I just don’t want to waste my time with it anymore.
So you act exactly how youtube wants. They dont want debate and conversation. They want control of information and that you only see and read whats allowed by them

A big problem is that UA-cam uses Google translate. And it's terrible. So people read my comments in another language that are mistranslated and get upset and write nasty comments to me that have nothing to do with what I said.
My problem with UA-cam disabling comments is how they're using the "content for children" excuse to push inappropriate content towards children without any pushback from people .
One of my videos had comments turned off even though I was 20 in that video and the person I commentated on was 23. *I even had a full beard and the algo still detected me as a kid*
@@DivanCelloI’m a teen and when I used to make videos they all got comments disabled so I constantly had to Re-Enable my comments because it detects me as too young or somthing.

I was so confused as to what was going on the first time I saw it. And it would be like 10 or 20 different accounts that would be talking about this product that was completely unrelated to the video. I would then finally see a few human comments towards the end, where they would say something like "wtf is up with these bots?" So yea the problem is pretty bad here.

The problem is the uttp bots use a cipher to get past moderation
@@sethmerkitch8554they don't
This is why they're running more ads. Advertisers are pissed at how many bots there are. They don't wanna pay UA-cam a bunch of money if they don't even know how many ads are reaching actual humans instead of bots.
So UA-cam, instead of actually scrubbing the bots off the platform, just crams in more ads. To UA-cam, the bots make the platform feel more alive and get actual users to engage more with the videos. These bots can also artificially inflate views on certain channels to set certain trends and even influence public opinion. The elections are a prime example of this. Its a double edged sword, because unless UA-cam actually regulates which bots they allow (which they might) then someone with access to lots of bots could help influence an election against what UA-cam actually wants.
But back to the advertisers. If an estimated 1/3 of users are bots, tripling the ads would help ensure the advertisers get what they pay for in terms of actual human views and engagement. Plus, UA-cam also maintains the level of engagement on videos by not getting rid of bots, and the potential influence these bots have on society if they do regulate them for ideological reasons.
Since the users have no power at all over UA-cam policy, it will be up to the advertisers, who actually are the source of funding, to threaten pulling their ads if UA-cam doesn't actually clean up the bots.
The crazy thing is Google is actually REALLY GOOD at identifying bots and spam. They must be doing this on purpose. The censorship of human comments is just fuel for more conspiracy.

What YT also removed was the option to actually block people. The "hide" option doesn't even do what it says.
The other day I caught this bot advocating "maps" (UA-cam won't let me use the actual word" on everyones comment. Saying kids can consent and it should be normalised. Seriously people need to speak out more on these bots they're getting out of hand. And just like that they're already in the replies to other comments talking about CP......
I just scrolled past one before I saw this comment.
Just call those ppl PDFs. Good luck for youtube to see what that is about and auto ban based on the word alone.
Pretty fucked up how YT deletes normal comments, but keeps bot comments with out of pocket takes, and NSFW icons. Its actually annoying.
It's crazy how bots get to have their comments left up, yet if I just say a single sweary swear, regardless of whether it is negative or aimed at another person or not, it's immediately thanos'ed
Add left wing extremists to that list. People can post comments calling for Trump supporters to be jailed and for the news to be nationalized "so Trump can't win" and those stay even after reports, but my comment asking people to realize how hypocritical and bigoted they are gets deleted.
Bruh wtf...
My comment was deleted and all three of the spam comments I reported 20 minutes ago are still up. I should probably give up on UA-cam comments at this point. UA-cam is too terrified of real liberalism to be able to run a platform like UA-cam effectively. It will probably never get better.
Third time trying to post a comment, and the bots that I reported are still there. Amazing.
@@awesomeferret dude what is even happening right now... I'm perplexed.
And somehow there is another even worse comment by a bot in my replies ughhhh

It's beyond me that bots can spam texts that basically tell people to unalive themselves or that advertise cp, and nothing happens. Yet actual people's comments immediately disappear for no good reason. This whole platform is such a mess and it's absolutely annoying. It discourages people from saying anything and the creators suffer because less comments mean less fodder for the algorithm.
Bots out here saying vile things. And I could say something like "Aw cute!" on a vid and SOMEHOW it gets instantly deleted / hidden
Bruh
This same exact thing happens to me as well
Why do people spam? It's just annoying for everyone!
@@Eye-am-Metalchipthat's why.
@@Eye-am-Metalchipthat's the point
Idea: Bring the illegal and hard R comments up to UA-cam's biggest advertisers. If ad revenue is going to drive the platform, make sure the advertisers know exactly what kind of platform they're associating with.
Though at the same time, with some of the more questionable ads that float around on UA-cam, it makes you wonder.
Theyll do something about people saying slurs over a protected class, but sadly children dont seem to be a protected class.
They only would care if it is politically beneficial for them. 90% of them are under one organization's umbrella basically.
you think these multi billion dollar companies and corporations care? we are cattle to them, a "resource" to be used
Re-watched and commented to bump this in the algorithm.
You know YT is eventually coming with a solution that's gonna screw over the honest content creators and commenters.
Really appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We take reports like this very seriously & we work hard to action violative content when made aware. We're passing this along so our team can take a further look & handle next steps. Thanks, again.
good
Better not end up like valve 'fixing' tf2 bots (doing nothing). Hoping for the best 🙏🙏
Very serious I think not it’s been 8 years already

Got to love how a multi billion company cant prevent botted comments
They can, they CHOOSE not to. Its engagement.
Yet they wanna go after ad blockers instead of fixing their platform
I love comment about engagement. I can imagine a marketing director putting up a slide deck saying engagement is up 80%. When in reality it's all bots
@@cheetah219 illegal ones on top of that
Oh they can, but they’d rather crack down on those pesky adblockers. We need to start sending evidence of these disgusting comments to FBI or something, someone who actually cares about this stuff since UA-cam clearly doesn’t
*The way these comments don't get detected by auto moderation is that they add a special character that makes it have a right to left rendering for the text, and they type the comment in reverse, so to the automod it just looks like gibberish*
The worst part is, that its childplay to write obfuscation code like that and hard to write code detecting all those possible variations. I think its impossible
mods-uh!1!1
@@ersetzbar.UA-cam probably doesn’t care because it doesn’t lose them money. Probably even artificially inflates the platforms numbers which can’t be bad for business.

Not true. I got slammed for hate speech for bringing up "urban moving systems" Yep that will get you a warning or a 24hr ban.
@@Jim-x1i How does the ban work? IP ban, username (Google account), or other? I mean... I have 5 Google accounts, and you can always watch most videos without logging in. So unless they ban by IP, and you have a static IP, this doesn't do much for me at least.
@@DarkForce2024only the specific channel it happens on, but it doesn't even tell you the specific item that leads to the ban

which is not effect at all, and doesnt need a genius to set up another google account in 0.2 seconds
Between the disappearance of comments and the general stupidity of trolls, I’m about done commenting.
What really sucks about bots is when you have a platform where bots repost the exact same things which other people have said to just farm karma points or whatever the heck bots need to masquerade themselves as live people to the point that you can't actually discover the original person who made the comment. it just leads to a distrust of the social media platform your in because there is no intelligent discussion to be had. It's like visiting your book club and as you open the door you realize it's just an entire zoo of parrots. You can say whatever you want, some will even reply back to you, but you won't ever get to talk about the book you just read.
That's a really cool analogy with the parrots!
@@sapphireblue4031 Thanks, I was originally going to use sheep or wolves but parrots just made more sense because although they are capable of speech, they do not understand the words they have heard, they're just mimicking human behavior to fulfil their own instincts or algorithm.

Reminds, like 20 years ago, on some chat-platform I used to visit; more than once people copied stuff of mine that I had on my profil-page/attached website, which were depicting my thoughts.
Straight up copied, typos and all, for making themselves look insightful.

@@PyrrhoVonHyperborea 20 years ago? idk if you're exaggerating but it's wild to think of botting that prominent back before youtube was even a thing, I guess it could just be someone who copied your profile for whatever reason. Trying to fake an identity for an online dating website perhaps?

Daily Dose of the Internet sees the fembots in his comment section but instead of getting rid of them, he hearts their comments! I've seen it several times. He did it twice on his latest video.
I’ve given up trying to comment about some things. I was trying to talk to someone about a game, but so many of our comments where being hidden that we had to speak in code.
Interesting, my issue is the exact opposite. I generally stoped commenting since it feels like my comments just constantly get deleted (maybe for swearing? Idk. I heard every youtuber can blacklist certain words) but I have no idea what these are. Especially when getting into debates I’ve had a bunch of comments just deleted immediately. Which makes a back and fourth interaction very hard and honestly I just don’t want to waste my time with it anymore.
Most likely UA-cam's nannybot but youtubers like to censor too.
Same here, feels like a total waste of time to make comments when 90% of them get deleted or hidden.
So you act exactly how youtube wants. They dont want debate and conversation. They want control of information and that you only see and read whats allowed by them
The real problem is that half of my totally innocent comments dont show up any more. Even on friend's channels where i know they have moderation set to "none" by default. They arent even showing up in "held for spam"
Bit of yapping. Back when drake vs kedrick was happening i posted on oompaviles channel something that tldr said that i think both made good music, got my comment removed 2 times in a raw. Said something about how amazing Kdot was and i stayed there till now. UA-cam moderation is sad, they remove thing that dont agree with the mainstream but let people who share cp rn spread dangerous material on like its noones bussiness. Honestly hate what this site has become.

It doesn’t help when creators keep leaving a heart react in bot comments
I actually reported about 100 of those spam comments under a Kurzgesagt video, but it's hard to eliminate these comments due to just the big quantity of them and the requirement of having a lot of reports per comment to actually have the comments removed or related accounts banned

@@markusTegelane which is fair enough. You can check his source code for it on git - search ThioJoe (YT hides comments with urls in them otherwise I would link it) and he even suggest a dummy account if you so wish. I just ran it on this video and of 3673 comments it flagged 145 comments. Mass reported my end. Creators have more control over what happens and they can mass delete and report in one go...The more creators that use this, the more they can help their own channels
My personal favorite type of bot is the one that creates an entire conversation with itself glorifying someone who doesn’t even exist.
Comment bots will be the death of UA-cam comments itself
