Why?

[shishido0929]

Jirou, whatever you did to the bot, make it stop. This thing has been following me all day. And I know it's the same one. It's got a blue mark on the side and it's followed me from the gym to my room to the medbay.

In other news: anyone else know how to shake a bot that won't leave you alone? Because this is annoying.

Hit it once between the shoulderblades with a mallet that is at least half the size of its head.

[shishido0929]

I may take your advice if it doesn't stop.

[chickens]

And if that fails, take a flamethrower to it.

[akutagawa_j]

You must be garbage.

[shishido0929]

Or your bot is broken and needs to be scrapped.

[akutagawa_j]

Don't hit it, the other bots will swarm you.

[shishido0929]

So they're defective then.

[akutagawa_j]

Defective implies I didn't program them to do that.

[akutsu]

I'm havin the same problem. Went to bed, locking the damn thing outta my room. When I got up in the morning it was still there, and followed me on my shift. I wasn't even smoking!

[shishido0929]

So it's not just me. These things are clearly broken.

[akutsu]

Definitely messed up.

[akutagawa_j]

Have you tried showering? I think the cigarette smell is confusing it's sensors. It might think you're garbage.

[akutsu]

I showered this morning before I left my room to start work, thanks.

[akutagawa_j]

And you used soap?

[mgakuto]

heh

[shishido0929]

You laugh now but just wait until these things start following you around.

[mgakuto]

I keep myself nice and tidy, thank you very much.

[shishido0929]

Like I don't?

But also, hey, just so you know, Niou started asking a whole bunch of questions about you.

[worldofice]

Top cabinet. Middle shelf. Spray.

[shishido0929]

I doubt it'd work on a bot.

[worldofice]

That cabinet contains cleaning supplies. The bottle in question is mildly acidic with a strong nozzle. Its effectiveness comes down to aim.

Try the underside.

[shishido0929]

If I do that, it'd just piss Jirou off even more. So while it's tempting, I'll pass.

[sws_mizuki]

That seems like a safety breach! Is it a programming error?

[shishido0929]

No. No, I annoyed my friend who did this to teach me a lesson. It's just annoying, nothing dangerous.

[sws_mizuki]

That's a relief.

Please ensure that the rules regarding misuse of bots are followed. Your friend could get in trouble!
