I think bots are fine. Bots pretending to be humans is the issue. Saidit promotes civilized conversation, something you can't have with a bot, at least not with these bots. Have enough bots controlled by someone with an agenda, and those posts rise to the top, while real organic posts are buried. Then saidit starts to look like reddit. I think bots should be identified, it's not a huge problem now, but it might be in the future. I appreciate that you took the time to consider identifying these bots, they piss me off.
