Very interesting indeed. It didn't trigger my botdar at all, though it's clearly a bot. I think I just passed it off as being the same post I had read previously.
freebeard gave a thanks to the bot, perhaps as a gesture of being very sophisticated.
I've still never understood the point of bots (shills) on a forum though, other than as an academic test.
