    Your comments are tagged as being from a bot, was that intentional for this joke lol

        That’s cause of your account settings. Uncheck robot/bot option.

      Hmm, can real users be tagged as bots? Surely they’d complain and have it fixed quite quickly?

      I saw this bot reply and just instinctively downvoted and blocked it, can’t stand Reddit/Lemmy bots that don’t serve a useful purpose (like unit conversion or haiku’s) haha.

        Anyone can label themself as a bot in the Lemmy user settings, sometimes users do so mistakenly

    Yeah - back in the day A/S/L was asked so you had a rough idea of the type of person you were talking (typing) with…

    37/M/India v 15/F/US would give you a very rough idea of the demographic the other person belonged to - and might shape your conversation differently.

      and as internet lore of old says: that 15/F/US was either a 30 y/o living in their mum’s basement or an FBI agent

        Which was weird, because I remember being 14 in the late 90s, and EVERYONE was 14-16/F/Cali.

        And I’d always say “Oh, sorry. I’m 14, but I’m from Ohio”.

        I wonder how many FBI agents I pissed off.

      Having lived in the days of IRC and BBS you did not tell people your ASL and knew anyone that asked was probably a pervert.
