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.

It's not broken, it works fine. False positive's aren't a big deal, and it does a great job redirecting people. It also counts members, runs reaction roles, welcomes new members, runs mod commands, and shows the status of Webster API. There is no perfect way to detect questions, and Twilight does just fine. It saves us staff a lot of time, and false positives aren't hurting anyone.
(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.
Yes it has, like I said it saves us a load of time.
Yesterday:
I'm not talking about that, though. I'm talking specifically about it detecting whether someone is asking a question in the wrong section.
Oh, you never see that because people delete their questions after they see what the bot says
(Here lately the fake bots have been saying it just randomly)
That is a fake bot
Fake one
fake one
I am scrolling up community chat and I only see false postives from the fake bots.
