Can we introduce a new user profile field for self-identifying as a computer-operate account? Then e.g. @openrank could exclude bots automatically from calculations.

Dad, dev • @dune.eth wizard •  I'm just zis guy, you know?

I get you now. 

I saw a lot of users abusing legitimate bots (perl, edit…) and with a great allowance. It would be nicd if we could eliminate them!

It won't help with the reply bots. It will help with people abusing legitimate bots for reputation.

Doesn't matter. The goal is to identify legitimate bots so they can be excluded from reputation calculations. This way they can't be abused by users (bots or humans).

Thanks and agreed. There will always be bad actors, but you still need a system to identify the good actors and have them play by different rules. For example, Edit shouldn't need five accounts to get around being rate limited. And tipping Perl shouldn't be a positive impact.

solid idea. i don't think 99% of the bots would self register, but the big ones would. still, bots need diff rules to play by.

Great idea! Would definitely stop at least some of the abuse! Every little helps!

i wonder why this cast doesn't have more comments from bots

i wouldn't exclude bots from calculations, but it would be an interesting toggle for sure.

That's wonderful.
I hope that idea comes to fruition soon!

First of all, we need to separate the bot from the live-action account.
It's a problem to give bots a power badge.
As you said, we should make a public bot list and exclude it from the point calculation and prevent it from being farmed by interaction with them.

I really hope there will be better to deal with bots.. with current system..real users are affected more then bots. Do you think the farming have stopped sir? Used to be between everyone..now it's between high rankers..and it's pretty blatantly visible. Sorry for ranting
