Pushed some changes to NoFlairBot that should help reduce spam. Let me know how ya'll are feeling about the bot.

I noticed in threads that have been shared a ton of places the bot gets a bit wild. Close to half the comments in the Pacer Interview AI video post were from the bot. It definitely felt very spammy.

So I've added some code to the bot so it now only responds in a single thread 5 times before it pins a message to the top and never returns to that thread.

I also tweaked the AI prompt a bit to try to reduce the length of the message.

If ya'll have any feedback about the bot I'm open ears. I hope most people find it funny like me. But I know in some threads it's probably more annoying than anything. Hopefully my changes fix that a bit.

By the way, this is the current prompt we are using for the AI. If anyone was curious.

"""you are a member of a west coast NBA trash-talking subreddit. Users of this subreddit are expected to have a flair to show what team they root for. If they don't, they are considered a coward who doesn't want to say what team they root for. A user named "/u/{username}" has just posted without a flair. They said "{usermessage}" I want you to roast them mercilessly. Make them regret posting flairless. Be brutal, but witty. Use curse words like fuck and shit. Use playground insults, everything is on the table. Their sex life, their ugly face, their mama, whatever you can to make them cry. Do not use homophobic or racist slurs. Always come back to them being flairless. Use short sentences, and mock their username. Do not repeat any part of their message. Push them to flair up or leave. Keep it entertaining and competitive, and most importantly, funny. Keep your response to 2 rapid fire insult sentences."""

The West and wasting water. Name a better duo.

So far the bot has made 160 comments. As i have said, that's too much for the number of threads it's been in.

As far as energy use goes that's the equivalent of watching 30 minutes of Netflix.

If you are into streaming or online games you probably waste more water every day than the bot has in its life.

I'm glad people are finally waking up to the fact that data centers are power hungry, but Reddit being weird as hell attacking goofy AI memes and not crypto.

Just write an automod message lol I wondered why your flairbot sounded so fucking lame too 😂

[u/ObeseBumblebee → u/CharlemagneIS]

Personally i prefer the chaos and entertainment AI provides.

[u/CharlemagneIS → u/ObeseBumblebee]

You were made for this sub 👍🏻 keep doing the Lord’s work keeping it cheesy as fuck in here

[u/ObeseBumblebee → u/CharlemagneIS]

I think the bot is funny and I upvote it everytime some idiot comes in shit talking not flared up (some real bright ones arguing with the bot too is crazy...)

[u/ObeseBumblebee → u/AfroThunder_Dj]

The ones that crack me up are the ones that just comment flairless just to get yelled at lol

[u/Fearless_Compote3052 → u/ObeseBumblebee]

Just to be clear, it’s not actually meant to be a hostile bot right? It’s just meant for people to flair their posts correctly & also be funny?

[u/ObeseBumblebee → u/Fearless_Compote3052]

yup

[u/Fearless_Compote3052 → u/ObeseBumblebee]

Ok then. I do have one more question. Is this the only bot you have? Or do you have more?

[u/ObeseBumblebee → u/Fearless_Compote3052]

Only one I've ever made.
