During the weekend all my communities jumped to 20-30 subscribers, but no participation. I went to see if almost all of the new subscribers were some variation of this bot.
I mean it is not doing anything wrong, it just feels like a huge letdown to see that none of the growth was organic. Are people really creating instances just for the sake of lurking around? What is the point?
