Sub Fun and Who Suggested Siri Automod?

Fuck, my memory is bad. A week or two ago, someone suggested having a Siri-like automod - essentially, ask a well asked question and have a canned response. I love the idea and am running with it with help from the other mods. I just wanted the person who suggested it to reply back and remind me so I can give credit where credit is due. Its a fucking brilliant idea. So please, let me know who you are that suggested this! Obviously it'll be a very dumbed down version of Siri but I figure it might be a good way for the community to reply to oft-asked questions with boiler plate.

Also, one other theme I've noted is that the old fun has seemingly left the sub. Of course any suggestions to make things more fun are always welcomed. I do have one surprise in the pipeline. I can't guarantee everyone can handle it. Some might object. Others might be enraptured with glee. More than a few might be shocked. Its always a general rule that you should be careful of what you wish for as you might get it. So, be prepared. You ask, and I shall confidently deliver something that will be guaranteed to offend as many as it will delight. But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

EDIT: it was /u/lucid_enemy who suggested the automod Siri-like behavior to me. That was my gut instinct. Should have gone with the gut

Quick example of how the AM will work. The content hasn't been wordsmithed at all, but this will give you an idea with this one example:

What is sourcing?

Are the moderators undercover feds?

Upvoted. I'd try it. I will admit though, not sure how I might feel about using my voice for this. Unless this would use something other than voice. I have yet to try out Siri TBH.

Here's how this sub could be more fun.

  1. Ice cream party. Everythings more fun with an ice cream party.

  2. Politically correct day. Our sub definitely falls under the politically incorrect category, so what if we had a thread like moronic Monday where everyone had to be hella PC. No talking about anything even remotely sketchy, no cursing, no being mean, just incredibly politically correct.

Also you should have triggers people can use that's listed on the wiki so if some jackhole vendor is all like by my shit I can be like /vendor ads and AM will be all like gtfo and post on the vendor ads... It will make it easier for you to mod. And let us grab info for people by quickly referencing using AM's triggers basically let us be able to pull known info I can't think of ideas right now lemme get higher k?


[2 Points] 0ffshorethrowaway:

Sounds great. It would be cool if the AutoMod linked to threads wherein the topic was previously discussed in comprehensive fashion for questions that the answers to which are not constantly changing. Digging with the search engine should produce good results to have the automod link to.

You should make automod kind of a bitch though, like Siri. When she told me I have no friends.

Bring book week to r/DNM. That was kinda fun back on the silk road forums


[1 Points] FrozenMCVegetableCok:

So the automod is finally getting the features of an IRC bot... Don't forget some Easter eggs in the responses.


[1 Points] HonkySpaceship:

How are you going to make this not the most annoying thing ever? It seems like a good idea that would be better accomplished if the mods had preset answers to copy and paste or if they had to manually approve automod's responses. Otherwise posts are going to be significantly more cluttered with bullshit. Even the silk thing annoyed the shit out of me after the 3rd day.

idk back in the begining of here was a tense time this was a much needed sub from day 1.

there was still that certian degree of christmas moring magic feeling from ur 1st SR order landing but then suddenly it all was taken away by the fbi/homeland whatevers, ross,s arrest was quite a shock fer us,(losing ur 1st love) then young dumb no drugs put trust in sheep, bam 1st time most of us were straightup robbed. we didnt know what or how the hell to find anyone, this place started booming with users lol wonder how many million this place help generate between buyers/vendors over these yrs. we didnt know what the hell was happing with markets,who to trust slowly sr2 came together and agora. since sr1 times changed we prob. all learned some kind of life lesson from the DNM's since 2011.

some of us are like yawn weekly lb herion/5 keys coke/book full of LSD order #1,432 bored, but (money up to the ceiling n shit) lol ah doubt any of thats going on. we need something new like big ..dead drops, or drones, piegons, seperate collage/city semi local based btc deaddrop markets? idk then theres us that with each more order grow more silent with paranoia fear.

yeah what ur doing is good to. only thing i ask just no women's shoes plz.
