Oh that's fine. Fuck the Reddit chat function. Only scammers and spammers ever messaged me on that shit.

The self help bot is worse. It was only used to push vulnerable people over the edge and for pissing off people who couldn't pm someone who disagrees with them.

I always enjoyed reporting the abuse of the self help function and just smiled that I aggravated a low-life that much. It's laughably pathetic.

The help bot has instructions on how to report abuse that didn't even work.

Why would they work? The only function of reddit cares was harassment.
