I'm going to be honest, while Twilight bot is kind of iconic, it doesn't really seem all that useful. I've seen one person ask a question in the wrong section (and they still got their question answered). Most of the time, the bot is just getting false positives. A lot of them in response to posts that don't even contain a question. Which is annoying at first, then funny for a little while, and then kind of annoying again. Maybe it's me, but I just don't see the point in continuing to use a bot function that is so obviously broken.

(Oh and it's not "broken", it does exactly what I programmed it to do. Even if it does mess up sometimes.)

Bret, I love what you do, but that bot has never successfully detected a question once in its life.

#

I'm not saying to get rid of the bot, just that the question detection doesn't work and should be turned off.

I'm not talking about that, though. I'm talking specifically about it detecting whether someone is asking a question in the wrong section.

(Here lately the fake bots have been saying it just randomly)

#

That is a fake bot

Fake one

I am scrolling up community chat and I only see false postives from the fake bots.
