CONFRIMED: Latest rumours Confrimed as Unconfrimed

[Greatwesternline]

Can't help but feel that someone writes a half sentence on a social site, a bot picks it up and uses chatGPT to flesh out an 'article' on it (which is mostly just fluff and rewording, to make it sound like they're ITK). Then other bots pick it up and do the same. In that fleshing-out process, the wording becomes a bit vague and certain details are hinted at, that weren't ever in the initial comment. Eventually, we have what looks like a fully fledged takeover ready to go, when in reality, Bob Jenkins was overheard telling Shaun Smith at the Shoulder of Mutton, that his mate at the club had seen someone he didn't recognise walking into the chairman's office. 2024, what a time to be alive, huh?

The only reliable source for a successful takeover is an official press release by RFC, covered by BBC / Sky Sports story on a takeover that has been completed. Anything else should be treated as light entertainment.

Just goes to prove that the internet is just a load of bots, and bots usually produce a load of ****

And the bots are more reliable than the people

I once considered programming a bot that would follow you around HNA replying to everything you post with the response "that's the stupidest thing I've ever read" but, actually, this one wasn't too bad. Well done mate.

We had a bot many years ago that used to post: 'Oster on for Little' pretty much in every match.

Exactly my take on it too, has been since the whole sorry saga started.

I know Hiram. He is very much not a bot, and his user name is, in fact, he legal name.

I can also confirm that the only thing he ever says in real life as well as on here is "I agree." Which is useful, because you can trick him into always getting the beers in when in the pub, by saying "I believe, Hiram, that's it's your round again."

[Millsy]

I agree.

[From Despair To Where?]

I agree.

Thing is, it's just not funny when you do it, Millsy.

You can't just nick a routine honed and crafted over 10 years of refinement though, can you?
