Clarification on Follow-Back Issues

[x3ric]

Hi,

I’m x3ric. I want to address a few points:

I recently unfollowed all accounts and refollow those who follow back because a bug in my bot unfollowing. I encountered issues where the bot was not unfollowing correctly and had problems with unfollowing all users, including those who did follow back. These issues have now been fixed.

Claims of scamming are unfounded. My goal is to contribute positively and transparently. I am committed to following back all users.

For more details about the bot, check out octobot and the followback github action.

Best regards,
x3ric

Hi x3ric,

while I couldn't verify your whole story (since I added you to this list on Jul 7 but the initial commit of your 'octobot' is from Aug 1), you have no scammed followers right now, thus I removed your entry.

Thank you for your understanding!

Just to add, the bot was previously private, which might have contributed to some of the confusion. Now that it's public, I'm more than happy to address any concerns and provide transparency about its functionality.

Best regards,
x3ric
