I have noticed certain posters are posting constantly sometimes in 1 minute intervals which is physically impossible. Elon noticed the same thing on twitter. Is GAW infested with BOTS who don’t appear to sleep and have over one million posts?

In all seriousness, those 3 effed up, because this board without rooftoptendie comments is but a hollow shell of an ersatz succedaneum.
That's the first time (in recent memory) I've used a thesaurus to come up with a word, although I've certainly been accused of it many times.
And I still don't believe it was quite the right word.
I really wanted a noun with the same "sub-par" connotations of ersatz, and my brain tells me there absolutely exists that exact word I'm looking for... but I couldn't come up with it this morning, so 🤷♂️.
= substitute substitute.
Ersatz is a German word and, during WW2, was frequently used to describe substitute "coffee" made from acorns. Nowadays it tends to imply something which is fake and maybe deliberately intended to deceive, such as "ersatz leather".
