an old meme picture I put together a long time ago felt like it would fit this sub. I don't remember why I made this picture.

you guys remember when VRCHAt wasn't a cesspool full of sharks looking for fish in the water, or kids, or not even very many trolls back then. it was just full of people exploring a new world and having fun, and genuinely befriending others.

I noticed I was getting downvoted talking about sery bot quite a bit in a reddit discussion. so I want to hear the downvoters thoughts, why not use sery bot? it is using a bot against the bots and you don't have to worry about them. sery bot is a good bot, not a bad bot like the ones invading your stream. it's a free bot killer that updates the words and terms bots use to keep them banned for as long as sery bot is in your stream and it pretty much has always worked for me 99% of the time for banning bots and still is easily banning bots to this day.

so what's the issue? would you rather input the thousands of words and terms yourself and lose sleep over it? you can use mods sure, but the problem with that is that mods aren't instant and whatever link they're adverting can be shown even for a few seconds. sometimes this pops up on chat overlays and they slip through, which is what the bots are counting on. sery bot this isn't an issue because they get banned near instantly as soon as the message appears.

genuinely are you guys just downvoting for just hate or do you have a genuine reason why you don't use sery bot, give me your input. personally I think it's a great for smaller streamers who do not have mods, its hard too find trustworthy mods nowadays.

if you are just going to downvote this because of some sort of ambiguous hate or dislike for sery bot being a bot without a genuine reason, then I don't care. give me your reasoning. why not use a bot against the bots? get them a taste of their own medicine.

I'm getting some comments that sery bot b@ns random people, I went through my b@n list that sery bot has banned, and no, there's no random chatters in there. they're all bots. I've been using sery bot for years. most of them have bot names, this is the b@n list from my channel here, the format is weird because I copied it directly from the website into google doc

this is my b@n list. I checked the usernames that seemed legit but they were also spouting out ai/bot websites or were suspended by twitch. 99% of the usernames are a long combination of words, random jarble, or have a _ in their username, commonly used by bot accounts.

honestly I think I'm going too stop commenting here from now on but I will be reading the replies, haven't really gotten a legitimate reason to stop using sery bot yet so if you have an actual good reason that isn't just a wild claim with no proof, i'd like to hear it. but so far its been overwhelmingly on sery bot's side and most comments have been positive with overwhelming upvotes so..im just going to chalk up the downvotes to just weird sery bot hate with no actual reasoning or base behind it. I gave you guys a grounds to which to fight this battlefield on annd..you lost..terribly..so..yeah..rip.

https://mods.vintagestory.at/immersivetools seems to have been abandoned. is it possible to make a fork update to 1.22.0-3?

Some of them are saying the right thing, It's against twitch's TOS. However there's another half that are wanting to also break twitch's TOS and want to DM the guy. Their defense for doing this is that everyone is doing this nowadays. smh. I'm disappointed with these guys. How hard is it to just not bot? What are your guys thoughts on bots on the site? Obviously I am expecting an overwhelmingly response of don't use them, they break Twitch's TOS. But this doesn't seem to stop people at all, which is more concerning. The state of botting on the website seems to be getting pretty bad, and people's defense are, "well everyone's doing it so I'd mindswell."

sigh. this is just sad. we're in the cooked timeline. Obviously don't ever consider bots, its obvious and people will avoid your streams because of it. And you'll also have the possibility of getting banned at any time.

A few of these comments are sus, I'll be blocking you myself for putting sus comments. some of you need help.

I just watched his Building a Building a HIDDEN Lab Operation! - DayZ and man it wasn't more blatant in any other video I've seen from him. I enjoy watching his videos but this one just took the cake. tthey made multiple kills on several people who seemingly looked invisible to me, like full camo blended into the tree's/bushes. I'm just sitting there like how the fuck did he see them. he also seems to always know whether they're full dead or uncon, instantly when he shoots them and calls it out. I also saw his most recent video Living Out of a MOBILE BASE in DayZ... which also had some sus kills. It just looks like he stopped caring about hiding it.

I use it as a base of operations for GIC
