After the whole shebang with Visa and Mastercard pressuring some game marketplaces to remove porn games, there's been a lot of activity on KotakuInAction2.win about it - mostly on the side of the pornography being removed. I've been arguing that porn being removed is a good thing to what at first I thought was just a very stubborn and indoctrinated community... until I realized that at one point I was talking to an AI.

https://communities.win/u/83671R18/

What convinces me this is at least partially a bot or an LLM-assisted op:

1. Argues vehemently for pornography as free speech and other poisoned-well points... though a lot of people do that too
2. Consistently replied/replies with lengthy, effortful texts after 10-15 minutes even to nonsense, worthless replies, like "hmmm..." 5 times in a row - an actual person would have in all probability either dropped the effort or stopped caring
3. Not only perfect grammar but also very fanciful and mixed-up wordage every time, lots of purple prose and 'creativity' devoid of wit, which is characteristic for LLMs
4. Hammered on the same points and got into soft loops of ideas, like saying "your kind cannot think" 3-4 times in a row in differently generated ways
5. At some points fell into LLM hallucinations - when I tried messing with it with system-prompty stuff, it told me I was dependent on LLMs and insulted me about it, which makes no sense
6. Could only insult me in kosher ways - "hot steamy jewish poop porn" was typed out at one point, but it refused each time when provoked to type a slur like nigger or kike
7. Was upvoted and had me downvoted even deep into reply chains in old threads, which in a small community like KIA2 just doesn't get natural traffic

Several things suggest this isn't a pure bot but rather an operator using an LLM:

- Had a period of inactivity after the first conversation - working hours and all

- Could intelligently gather links to other posts or even edit logs and use them in replies - not entirely sure if this is just an advanced portion of the AI assistant or the operator's doing, but I'd guess the latter

- Not all replies are written in an LLM style, and the ones that aren't can also include racial slurs/bigoted talking points which could not be given during the LLM conversation

This account is honestly pretty dangerous. There's an Indian or other paid account operator gathering popular support (some of its recent posts are about nuking the niggers in Africa) while an LLM handles forum sliding, astroturfing popular topics like today's pornography removal being 'against free speech', etc. This isn't insurgent or the pedo pajeet or genuine crazies like TheImpossible1, this is a coordinated effort with advanced LLMs at its disposal swaying the opinion of an entire community to fight for pornography in games and call it 'right-wing'. I'm convinced there's other LLMs that I just haven't spotted yet.

I'm not sure what can be done about this on this website given that we don't actually control it... in any case, watch yourself.
