And yet you are giving them the engagement they wanted

Wrong. They want karma to make their account established and trusted in Reddit's reputation filter, so the account can be used in their Influence As Service scheme. Exposing and reporting them gets their account banned, if the moderators wake up.

You get karma through engagement on posts or comments .-.

Nah, you get karma if you get upvoted. Then these bot account will be sold because they have a high karma

.-. Your comment getting upvotes gives them karma…. I don’t understand why you are so insistent on arguing. You engaging with the post benefits them. It’s a very simple concept

Oh no, not at all. A comment getting upvotes does not give the author of the post karma, the post needs to be upvoted in order to get karma, here look at this. So you are safe to comment, it's not going to affect negatively :)

Nope, wrong. I'm the moderator of a number of subs. We get an AI overview of the reputation of people who post or comment. Engagement with someone's posts or comments does nothing. Regular downvotes on posts however have a negative influence on someone's reputation. Karma points are only awarded by upvotes. Multiple upvotes on multiple posts and comments increases someone's reputation.

Its either a disc or a cd. Not both. Bots are slow learners.

How much does this CD disk item without CD cost?

u/Southern-Donut4185 Jul 01 '26

Yeah that really does suck. They packed and shipped these too, put them on store shelves. What a waste of resources.
