GorujoKun we r in the same situation, I also wrote my first novels last year and I didn’t even know there were views bots but these comments bots are too obvious 😕

    ≡(▔﹏▔)≡This bot-thing is giving me the creeps. After finding this post and reading this conversation from the beginning, I went to the comments section for my book and clicked on the profiles for every single user who had commented, and {... (╬▔皿▔)╯"Horrors!"}...every single person who commented was of either level six or level five and they only had one badge(😒😒which was the cultivator badge for being registered for over one year). The way each one of them commented was also highly similar or just exactly the same(😣😣comments like "Update leh", "Hehehhe I'm back for more", "Getting better us it goessss, keep up the good work" etc.) It's just frightening since all of them who commented were like clones of each other which got me thinking if all~~🙄🙄 my readers were bots.

    So, here's a silly question: Is it possible for all your viewers to be bots?😡😡

      Ohh I'm so glad that I'm not the only one! This is really getting out of hand, I wish there was a way to stop this.
      I started getting these comments too, at first I thought nothing of it but then I realised they were way too weird and suspicious, especially their names had an abundance of numbers and like others mentioned lvl 5 or 6 with only one badge.
      It makes me despair tbh and I just want zo get rid of them. Hopefully therell be a solution to it soon or it might be just wishful thinking

      Btw question: can the bots add to collection bc ive been getting a concerning amount of collections recently and i wonder if it might not be from the bots

        MatchaMilk apparently, it's possible i think. Someone said to me that, he already deleted his novel from this site for a while, but he still got the collection notification. Even today.

        So, right now we are facing against, the view counts bot, collection bot and the comment section bot.

          The most ironic thing is that... This comments bot only start becoming active like... A week ago. But, their accounts already exists for a year.

          Most of them are level 5 or 6
          They only have who am i badge(in my case)
          They should at least has endeavor or cultivator badge.
          Their names are a mix of number and words. Most bots are like this.

            Regnov you see... The thing that make everything much worst is that... The only thing that you can trust that you have readers is the power stones and the vote.

            But... What makes everything so messed up is... You can't vote on unpopular novel. So, all these new author is pitful.(including me.)

            Then .. sometime.. without notice, you will find out that your novel one day can't receive power stones. And that is the most important thing for new authors.

            All because of some rules about you can't use some character or words or maybe emoji in your story. There is no notice, even if you fix it.. it's not like they wilk fix it so, you have to search for help yourself. There is no notice to inform the author about any rules breaking regulations so, we have to solve the puzzle and search for the problem ourself.

                Regnov If someone puts in the actual effort, then bots should be able to do everything that a normal reader can do. Voting/Rating/Comments/Reviews/everything.

                    RABBITICOL Holy! I think I'm gonna ask my readers to go through captchas first to read my novel XD

                        Naash I don't know what is happening with your novel...

                        Like no chapters but still getting collection.

                            Also, most of them have a number in their name.

                              They replied me with this
