They can still rule their boards with an iron first; they just have to get a real job first.
Anon doesn't know IT.
CLI, GUI, API (command line interface, graphical user interface, application programming interface)
Though the first two interfaces are aimed at humans, the API is aimed at applications. One can then use an application to access the API to automate requests/changes. (mass delete comments, mass ban users, etc.)
An API does NOT allow access to the source code.
He means the api just gives access to the internal functions of the site. Yes it doesn't mean source code but it's not that far off.
It doesn't even give access to internal functions of the site. It just allows one to automate changes. The access controls would still limit application-driven changes to whatever access the user has.
PEDANTIC MAN STRIKES AGAIN!
I was banned on reddit for subs I had never even posted in. They must have been using some sort of tools to do this.
There are bots called u/saferbot and u/safestbot. (Hopefully, capitalization doesn't matter.) I'm told that if you block them, they can't see you.
Yes. They can still do it. They just have to actually put in lots of man hours to keep the same level of control. You guys are pretty terrible at critical thinking. You think a lazy leftist retard actually wants to sit there and use their mouse to click through multiple things PER USER??? They are not researchers with autistic levels of concentration.
