Do you mean Magic: The Gathering the card game, or "magic"?

I don't know what you are talking about specifically. I assume that you mean the game. Magic: The Gathering is the first of its kind and the most popular collectible card game in the world. In 1993 it was created by Richard Garfield)

Sometimes I'm not sure if someone is a bot or not, so I leave these posts up.

I've looked at some of your comments from other posts. The problem you're thinking is that the bot might reply to the bot? This seems interesting. If you don't see the point, is your hypothesis likely to happen?Head Soccer

Probably... But once I've deleted a bot, but it was a legit new user :)

Agreed, mittierowe is a bot. I give PNigl1994 a 50/50 chance, bit he/it at least produces quality content.

1) ReCAPTCHA has been broken by AI bots. What alternative validation methods exist?

2) These bots are (so far) benign but represent a latent problem. They tend to post only once or twice, then lie dormant waiting for who-knows-what. It might be time for another purge.
