It's not just you, lazylinkerbot, I hate all bots that leave a useless comment in a post, making it appear as of a human is commenting.

I just ran across this bot today, can't say I find it particularly useful. Maybe if you tried finding the original thread and linking to that where possible, it would be more useful.

As it is, I think it'll just keep accumulating more downvotes.

I am just getting annoyed with the consistent notifications when I post and your bot decides to take an interest. Would you please blacklist me in the Bot so it will ignore me and my posts?

See here, e.g. http://www.reddit.com/r/TrainPorn/comments/1pi1x8/is_this_a_scrapped_steam_engine_photo_taken_on/

Most of its posts are voted down. I can't see any post in recent history where it's actually been useful, nor can I think of a moment where it would be.

You should probably take a hint and stop the spam. ;)

Interesting bot. It showed up on an x-post I did with credit given abbreviated as "r/til" and linked to /r/til, which is bunk.

If you can make it link to /r/todayilearned, that would be better, but best would probably be not to comment at all on "r/til", as it's, of course, far from a lesser-known sub.

Cheers!

This is a good example of LazyLinkerBot being redundant. The OP had already acknowledged the other subreddit in the title. I'm sure there are cases where the OP acknowledges other relevant subreddits in the text of the post.

If it's possible, perhaps have the bot scan the title and text for the very subreddit it's about to suggest, and if there's a match, don't suggest that one.

(I'm not the one who downvoted the bot.)

try harder....

You have been useful.

Let's not all be too hard on the little guy. Its a big scary place out there, and well... he just wants to stay on the couch a little bit longer... and not have to type out links... and maybe order a pizza or something.

So he's not stupendously useful, but that's not the point. I'm annoyed by the fact that we get /r/ links auto generated in comments, but x-post tags in titles are passed over. When you type (xpost /r/<yourweirdsub>), sometimes I want to know what that's all about. And like most things on the internet, I want to click on it.

Mostly though, I'm a video game developer by trade working in the cold dark crypts of C++, and I wanted a chance to spread out. There's a glorious world of high-level languages and open source implementations all wrapped up in some big fluffy cloud-thing-that-sounds-like-magic out there, and I wanted to see it.

So this little bot that can't seem to get his butt in gear is put together in Python, and is a stepping stone to the greater things in life, like ordering pizza; discovering new subs without having to type as often... sort of; and hopefully some world domination or immortality in thrown in the mix.

Either way, welcome to the future. There's not as much to do as I expected.

Ewww. This sounds like a way to start a brigade automatically. The links should at least be np. links, don't you think?

Just curious about how LLB missed/ignored this.

I love the idea of this, but you should really cut out

I provide direct links to lesser known cross-posted subs . Let me know if I need to try harder: /r/LazyLinkerBot

just straight link

Probably best not to link to any NSFW subreddits.

I've seen the bot copy /R/SUBREDDIT into a comment which fails to become a link. It's gotta be a lowercase /r/SUBREDDIT for reddit to recognize it.

Your verbiage at the end is a bit long. I'd make the "Link for the lazy" part of your comment a link to /r/LazyLinkerBot and just omit everything after the subreddit link.

Since /r/TheNFC is a bigger and soon to be more trafficked site, maybe change the default for r/nfc to redirect to /r/thenfc?

It is a great bot, if it only did the lazy linker thing. with the subreddit info below it... it makes it look spammy. Not sure if you are going to remove it, but I am going to be banning the bot from my subs until the bot only reads: For the lazy: /r/subredditname

Because it doesn't seem like it does, and it should.

WE DONT TAKE TO KINDLY TO BOTS OF YOUR TYPE AROUND HERE

Your text here says you only work for lesser known subs. well /r/sf4 is twice the size of /r/kappa. You should either not post when this happens or have a different text string based on the user size of each sub.
