Good thing my account is noun-noun-number, wouldn’t want people getting suspicious of me
Comment on Is there any proof behind the idea that "reddit is filled with bots"?

One pattern I have noticed in suspicious accounts is in their name. Adjective-Noun-Number is the format I see controversial posts by accounts newly made. The posts they make usually generate a lot of outrage.

adjective-verb-adjective agrees.

That’s the format for default suggested names for new accounts.

Yeah, very handy for bots. People, however, tend to have online identities or personas that they will try to carry forward on account names they create.
Burner accounts notwithstanding, of course.
