Why don't you clean up "the bots"? Useful to be precise here: "bots" is a catch all term that people use to describe low effort, uninteresting or otherwise off-topic content. However, a "bot" is traditionally thought of as a programmatic account, i.e. controlled by a script or software. e.g. bot net When people on Farcaster refer to "bots" they are more often referring to actual people using a mobile device (with the aid of translation tools and ChatGPT) who post uninteresting content (from their pov). They are casting and replying in hopes of appearing to be a "real account" because they have learned that turns into a future economic reward in crypto. Recent tipping meta has increased the expected value of these accounts. It's possible to algorithmically label these accounts, but then you create a "shadowban" meta. So you massively increase the number of support messages and complaints. This was the state of the world before priority mode.

you dont think there is a flood of AI agents coming onboard to FC on the first of the month for the past 3-4 months? There has been a spike in users joining every time there has been a new degen season and they are all casting really low bar ai content.

Be precise. Do you believe the accounts are: 1. Run by a script / software using APIs to cast 2. Actual humans using mobile devices organized in Telegram groups to "farm" with ChatGPT and Google Translate
