Interestingly that's what I have observed too, and not just only on my community, but on others too. I think it may correlate with the too frequent posting too. For example my bot was ordered to post every 4 hours which can be overwhelming for the average lemmings fella here.
Right; to my interpretation, a bot post won't convince anyone new to check out a community, and when someone does check out a community they see a series of posts regardless of how far apart in time they are, so the bot doesn't serve to pull in new people in any way
Hmm can agree with that logic. Thank you for sharing your input!
