I thought bot mods were fair, but my ban changed my view.
Seeing legit content removed made me question free speech limits.

One time on a gaming server, I watched a bot kick someone for typing too fast. The person was just excited about a new update, not breaking rules. It felt so rigid and unfair, like the system lacked common sense. That experience made me wonder who programs these things and what they consider okay. Now I always check if a human is really behind the ban before I get mad.

Getting kicked from a game for typing too fast seems like a small thing to get worked up about. People act like it's a free speech crisis, but it's just a bot following its code (probably badly written code, to be fair). I've seen way worse moderation by actual humans, you know? These automated systems are meant to handle scale, not nuance, so glitches happen. It's annoying, sure, but questioning free speech over a gaming server ban feels like an overreaction. Maybe we should save the outrage for when it really matters (like actual censorship, not just a bot hiccup).

On Steam, a bot kicked my friend for typing fast, which @the_nina, feels like censorship (not just a hiccup).
