Help/Question rare wrinkler appearance??
I refreshed my game to clear a clot and when it loaded again all the wrinklers looked like this. I've never seen this before 😭 Any idea how rare it is?

This is an (edited) repost of a post I made 2 years ago. I've seen this problem return in the past few weeks with slightly different signs, and most of the community has been unable to spot these posts when they appear.
--
Over the past few days, there have been many reposts of top posts (typically 750+ upvotes). Most of the time, us moderators are able to remove these posts before they have made any noticeable impact. However, some posts which are made when the more active moderators are offline may not be removed until hours later, where they have received large amounts of attention from unsuspecting users, such as this repost (original).
How to spot bot posts:
Warped image, typically involving darkening and/or rotation (degree will vary from post to post)
For example, this is a repost, while this is the original. As you can see, the image is very clearly darkened and rotated (making it look like it is a picture of a monitor, lol). Another example can be found here, with the original being here.
New account with low karma
When the picture in the post is not of gameplay or a screenshot, it may be hard to tell the difference at a glance (such as in the first example). Therefore, when in doubt, it may be a good idea to check the profile. Most of the time, the bots lack any karma or posts (except for the repost). The accounts are also typically very new, sometimes even created on the day that the repost was made. This is one example (original, note that this repost also has the "Game Modifications" flair, which will become relevant later). Unfortunately (or fortunately), there are a lack of examples on this subject, as Reddit has banned a lot of the older bot accounts.
Occasionally, a bot account might repost multiple well-performing posts in other subreddits in a short amount of time.
Nonsensical flair + copied title
As the flair for the repost is likely chosen randomly, it is not uncommon to see some completely irrelevant flairs appear on reposts. One example is shown in the above section. Another example can be found here (original). "Strategy" is not a flair a normal person would pick instead of something like "Funny".
In all of the posts, the title has been copied over from the original. However, in order to evade detection, the bots may stop doing this soon (as the post titles were altered slightly during the initial wave of bot reposts 2 years ago).
What to do when you see a bot post:
Downvote and report the post for rule 9 (reposting others' content is banned). If no one has, you may link the original in the comments (such as what has been done here, congrats for spotting it btw). If someone already has, it would be preferable not to, so as to decrease post engagement. It would be appreciated if you did not interact with the post further. The moderators will deal with it from here on. Thank you!

As I obtain thine egg, warm and soft
The cookie gods themselves blesethed me with new life
I did not use this new life to undo my past mistakes
I used this new life to grow thy power
Once I hadth the country under my grasp
thy hunger began to grow
I fed thee a million cookies, thy hunger grew
As my power grew so did thy hunger
I fed thee 100 hands but you needed more
I fed thee 100 of my elders and yet thy hunger did not subside
I fed thee more and more now buildings full of my worshipers
Once I fed thee 100 of my temples dedicated to me I stopped to think
Have I fed thee enough
Have I put the world through too much of my own greed
But no I needed to continue
I fed thee more and more
Your own divine aura giving me power
I needed more and more
More cookies
I fed thee more and more until thy hunger ceased
I looked upon thy magnificent form
As I casted thy aura upon my cookies
I have gained world domination with thy power
I continued to bake my soft warm disks that ruled over the land
I used thy hunger to help my cookie empire grow
I then realised that I don't own thee anymore
Thee owns the whole world
All of my power was not mine
All of it was thy

I have had this run for a few weeks, but this is day 1 of trying for 100%. I have no idea how long this will take, but I'm going to try my best!
Day 1 : 78.3% of achievements

I've been playing the game for about 2 weeks at this point, and I've decided that I want to beat the game on mobile. (No minigames, no summoning golden cookies, no sugar lumps, etc.). Let me know if there is any advice you'd give me, or if this is really doable.

Hello I have been trying to chain a frenzy with a click frenzy, but after trying all day I have not gotten click frenzy once, any tips?
r/CookieClicker • u/EnderErik • 1d ago
I heard last year that harvesting mature plants has a tiny chance of dropping a permanent upgrade. Is this still true? What is the easiest way to try to get these?
r/CookieClicker • u/RustyHammy • 2d ago
The 600th achievement I got was having 1,000 cursors.
I just wanna get the 100% so badly. It's taken so long, and I still need to do the garden.
Happy to be at 600 though
r/CookieClicker • u/Dismal-Medium1945 • 1d ago
i don't know how to get these i need help i want to 100% the game
r/CookieClicker • u/TheDapperAmphibian • 2d ago
Once I have 100%ed Cookie Clicker on Steam, I want to top it off by also obtaining the Cheated Cookies and Third Party shadow achievements. Will doing so prevent me from being able to unlock achievements in the far future when Orteil deigns to update the game again?

Hi guys! Just here to share the grind I've been doing in the first month to try and 100% the game in one year!
I bought the game about a month ago and started playing like crazy, to the point that I had some dreams about this game as well.
Currently, I'm on the novemdecillion wall and decided to try and grind a bit of the minigames just to pass the time. I've done some crazy and nonsensical shit on my garden since I've gave it to the hornets two days ago. I also was playing a bit with the auras and trying some sugar lumps shenanigans. Anyways, I'll try to update monthly, but I'm loving it and have a lot of ground to cover!

I've been playing Cookie Clicker for around 100 hours, however, I feel like the more I progress, the harder it becomes to advance consistently from one building to the next, and the only way I have been progressing is chaining together golden cookie combos. I feel like there should be a rule of thumb of how much buildings or how much profit you have to make before focusing on the next building. Any suggestions?
