I too was visited by the mysterious super alt.

Probably scraping 'friends' since bots don't have any.

I think it's a bot for an aggregate site. The question is which site...

Well technically people are the ones who write bots and unleash them onto the wild internet, so the workings of any bot can be attributed to a human being. And it's likely you might need regular profile to snoop up other peoples profiles so for that reason the person would have played some games.

Any profile can be opened by the ID alone, you do not need to know the name of the account. For example:
https://mwomercs.com...08-waaaaaaaah!/

And with that, one can see the bot has been running through the IDs incrementally. (If you check profile IDs in incremental order, you will see the bot visited them in the same order from the time stamp.)


It would appear you are correct. My member number is 2805 and I was visited on 11 Oct at 1030 am which I think predates almost everyone who has posted here with a time and date.
