>>281236835I'll never forget the /mlp/ /pol/ merge for April Fools. /pol/ looked like what it should (besides all the lewd ponies) and it felt like I was seeing humans talking about politics fairly civily with each other. The site traffic went back to a reasonable pace. It made me realize that most of the posts you see are bots of some sort. That was years ago, so I can't imagine how bad things are now. I'm sure I've talked to many bots on here and never knew it.
