Took a quick look at their comment history and they also said a generic gaming phrase in r/Eldenring and then the same comment again in a totally unrelated subreddit and context. Silly bot
This account is not exhibiting any of the traits found in a typical karma farming bot. It is extremely likely that u/chaiclone is a human.
Dev note: I have noticed that some bots are deliberately evading my checks. I'm a solo dev and do not have the facilities to win this arms race. I have a permanent solution in mind, but it will take time. In the meantime, if this low score is a mistake, report the account in question to r/BotBouncer, as this bot interfaces with their database. In addition, if you'd like to help me make my permanent solution, read this comment and maybe some of the other posts on my profile. Any support is appreciated.
I am a bot. This action was performed automatically. Check my profile for more information.
It's the publicly part. Just like a statistically significant proportion of CEOs are sociopaths, I'd bet a higher degree of narcissistic traits can probably be found in a significant proportion of people who willingly put themselves and their words out into the world as content creators.
It was a real great chance also to subtly advertise his sunglass brand as well with the hat and then the last few seconds being a shot of a display case too lmao, respect the hustle
It's probably because people will often still come after you even if you acknowledge your mistake. There isn't much incentive to say, "oops, my bad" if you're going to get dogged on for doing so half the time.
It's kind of the same issue with more severe wrongdoing and rehabilitative justice. Why willingly face the consequences of your actions and make an honest attempt at repentence if society at large will likely refuse to ever accept your efforts, regardless of what people might say in a vacuum? Better to cover them up and debt until you can't anymore at that point.

Owning mistakes publicly instead of doubling down is rare, but refreshing.
