Does This Look Familiar?
 
 

My bots receive a variety of odd input that causes me to believe they are being accessed in unintended ways… games, cell phones, Facebook… in a multitude of ways other than the HTML pages where they reside, and in ways I never authorized.  I’m trying to locate the source for some of these issues one at a time.  I know it’s people just having fun, messing about, but it’s unnecessarily adding to my workload.

I see this occasionally, and I’m wondering if it looks familiar to anyone.  Could it be something people place in Facebook, or could it be game commands?

That seems to be either game commands or weather information. But, how could your bot get game or weather info?

These conversations come in lots of other varieties other than what seems to be weather related.

For example, there’s this from Poland:
