FAQ:

Why am I banned from the bot?

Autobans from the bot occur when the user spams the n-word, usually as a wall of n-words in a single comment. All bans are permanent. This is just to prevent people from spamming the n word all over the place to get a high count because it's annoying.

I have seen people say that bans occur when a user reaches 5000 total n words or because of integer overflow. Neither of these are true. In fact, the highest number of n words possible in the 1000 comments the bot can count is 1,666,666, which would come nowhere close to overflowing a 32 bit integer if that's what was even being used.

​

Can I be unbanned?

No.

​

Can the bot provide links to the n-word comments?

No. This bot was never intended to be a serious tool. The lack of context is part of the fun. If you want something more useful and just all around superior, use redditsearch.io.

​

I keep calling the bot but it won't respond

In most cases this means that the bot has been banned from the sub you're trying to use it in. I tried to compile a list of subs where the bot is banned but it failed and now all the ban messages are buried deep in the bot's PMs. Also it's against botiquette to post it. Rarely the bot just misses mentions for some reason that I haven't figured out yet.

If the bot fails and you check its history and it hasn't commented in over an hour, PM u/ogkushmonster because the bot might have crashed.

​

The bot claims I said the n word but I don't remember doing it and I can't find it in my comment history

Use redditsearch.io/ to search your comment history. You could have used it in a quote or even a URL. As far as I know the bot has never reported a false positive and it shouldn't even be possible.

​

The bot says a user didn't say the n word but I just saw them say it

Make sure they actually said the n word and didn't substitute the 'I' for a lowercase L. Or any other substitution.

​

I just used the bot on someone who posted hundreds of n-words in a self post, why did the bot say they have none?

The bot only looks for n-words in a user's comment history. Titles and self posts are not counted.

​

Is the bot open source / can you share the code with me so I can make my own bot?

Not at the moment. Presently, I don't have the time clean up the code or explain it to people. Also it will be annoying if there's a bot for counting every word.

​

How did you make the bot?

The bot was written in python using PRAW was hosted on AWS until the free period ran out and is now hosted on Google Cloud Platform (also free). If you want to make a similar bot, check out r/redditdev.

​

Can the bot count misspellings of the n-word? / Can you make the bot exclude certain uses?

No. The bot counts any sub-string containing the n-word within a comment and only those substrings (not including "snigger" or "niggardly" starting 3/3/2020). Context cannot be taken into account.

​

Will the nwordcountbot be updated to count other words? Will you make another bot similar to this one that counts a different word?

No to both.

​

Can you make it so that r/waterniggas doesn't count?

No
