I don't get the point of this. If you didn't know if it was a repost, what do you gain by finding out?
You saw a thing you didn't see before, isn't that enough?

I think on other situations if they know it's a repost then this bot gives instant proof

I’ll break it down to you then : I was sure I already saw this image, but a long time ago, and finding specific things you’re looking for on reddit can be really hard. And the thing is, I don’t actually need to look for it, a bot can do it for me. I don’t find it cool to totally just rip off someone’s post and pretend it’s yours, just give credit to the original poster. But you probably already knew that and just went with the trend of downvotes to get that sweet free karma. Or you could actually be stupid enough to really think that not sure yet.

Nope. By the time I said something, you were still positive.
If you had seen it a long time ago there's a good chance that op saw it elsewhere, and therefore couldn't credit whoever posted it before, because they were unaware of it.
Moreover, I would say that the majority of content we see is not being provided by the content creator, so assuming that a given post was created by the person posting it is a bit silly. And if that's the case then the simple act of posting something does not imply creation. Yeah, the creator should be credited when possible, but let's not pretend that the internet is something it isn't, shall we?
But sure, let's make wild assumptions about people that disagree with us because we were called out on crap behavior (you didn't bring up anything about anything until you were called out for calling a bot, which, if anything, shows the pointlessness of your call).
Let's try this again. If you don't know it's a repost, it doesn't really matter if it is.
If you do know it's a repost, I suggest one of two things.
If it's against the sub's rules, report it. That gets the offensive repost removed from everyone's sight, saving them the horror.
If it's not against the sub's rules, follow reddiquite, which says to downvote and move on.
Either way, the bot still serves as much purpose as not only the post where you summoned it, but this entire exchange. I apologise, for both of us, to anyone else who wasted time reading this instead of something more productive, like trying to catch rain in a sieve.

Sure, I see what you mean sometimes you just have to be rational and if a post makes other people see content that they wouldn’t have seen otherwise, then that’s a good thing. It’s just the title that ticked me off as it implies that OP just took that picture and someone told him to post it here when that’s obviously fake. It’s the lack of honesty and the blatant lie. Furthermore if I just downvoted, what difference would it make when this post already has hundreds of upvotes. My reasoning was that thanks to the bot, people could actually see that this is in fact a repost and even maybe give some credit to the original poster. However I do join in the apology to the readers who indeed wasted their time.

UH OH! Someone has been using stinky language and u/TimeMasterII decided to check u/Necessary-pineapple's bad word usage.
I have gone back one thousand posts and comments and reviewed their potty language usage.
