All we know that : +1 , thanks, bye, hey, etc... (one single word) aren't constructive or am I wrong?
AFAIK some of them aren't considered as spam but some are but usually, most of them get deleted but there are still many here.

Hey, we should also to "determine" what does it mean the word "spam". I think also 5-6 words contribute to the thread, but everyone of us (it is normal) have their own definition of what is a "constructive post" and what is a "not-constructive/unsubstantial post" .

Length doesn't define if a post is spam. There are good one liners out there.
^ This would have counted as spam, but it isn't. See the problem?
Well I get your point. You are correct.^ This would have counted as spam, but it isn't. See the problem?
But we can always consider posts with 3-5 words as non constructive right?

You can calculate the number of words in a post and if the words are less than say 20, then the post would get counted as not constructive and if they are more than 20 then they would be counted as constructive. Here is an example-
This was a simple C++ program explaining how you can calculate the word in a post. In this program if the words are more or equal to 20 then it will show the post is valid else it will print Post wont be counted.
Code:
void main() {
char post[10000]; //here character "post" holds a particular post of a user like "hello world"
int wordcounter=0;
for(int i=0; post[i]!='\0'; i++){
if(post[i]==' '){ wordcounter++;}
}
++wordcounter;
if(wordcounter>19){cout<<"Its a valid post";}
else {cout<<"Post wont be counted";}
}
char post[10000]; //here character "post" holds a particular post of a user like "hello world"
int wordcounter=0;
for(int i=0; post[i]!='\0'; i++){
if(post[i]==' '){ wordcounter++;}
}
++wordcounter;
if(wordcounter>19){cout<<"Its a valid post";}
else {cout<<"Post wont be counted";}
}
This was a simple C++ program explaining how you can calculate the word in a post. In this program if the words are more or equal to 20 then it will show the post is valid else it will print Post wont be counted.
I know the length can be counted easily but I was talking about:
I mean, you could think of ways to have it tell if it is constructive like searching for length and making sure there's no spam in the post...

if lenght is the parameter for constructive post wouldnt some long nonsense comment be counted as constructive post then? btw, marco, do you double check the post or do you leave it for the bot alone to count?

Does the bot can differentiate the constructive posts from the spam?
The bot would need a conscience for that.

How to do that? AFAIK marcotheminer's bot doesn't have AI. Searching for length isn't a good idea, there are substantial one-liner posts.

Marco, please make it clear if I'm accepted or not?
It seems that I'm not on the list yet. Marco, are you going to add me?
Yes you're in.
Ok, but I still can't find myself on the list.
I haven't added you yet, but no worries, just post away.

I had searched for ndnhc when I got into it first, got nothing, and I even thought I got kicked out,
I just reloaded and hit ctrl+f. All is fine..
Same here.
I also noticed that 18 of my posts have been excluded, so I have a question on how this bot works. Posts in which boards are auto-excluded? I understand posts in this thread and off-topic board don't count - fair enough. But is 'games and rounds' section also not counted (even if posts are constructive)?
The rules in the first post are not very clear on this:
Quote
Posts in giveaways and/or placing bets will not count.
The way I understood this rule was that any bets/giveaway participation posts are not counted (such as username, BTC address etc), but any constructive posts (ie any discussion around the subject) are allowed.
Posts in this thread, off topics are ignored.
Posts in games and round are also ignore irrespective of whether they are constructive or not.
Bot ignores all posts in games and rounds.

redsn0w has made 638 posts as of right now, which means that he made 35 posts each day! It's impossible that they all are constructive and on-topic.
As would be expected I assume.
Why? I have to enter what I want to search, which is my username, and it doesn't show me anything. Sounds broken to me because I'm in that list.I'll look in depth into his posting but he seems to be fine currently.
I thought you meant searching for 'Mitchell' (not using the special 'L's). It does seem that search doesn't work for usernames (it does for UIDs). I'll take a look into it.

Works fine for me, just enter the thing you want to search for and press enter. Voila.
It doesn't for me. Go ahead and try to search my username.

Really cool bot.
Is this the bot which will kick me out if I test a new signature design for a few seconds?
Yes, unfortunately for you.
Sure. I will find some workaround or something. I will limit my designs to 30px for all font sets, then.
Want to know whether offtopic and speculation posts are counted? (Just curious about the terms.)
Terms are as stated in the OP (speculation counts).
