What are you, a cop? 

Did this break anything, or what's the specific issue here besides the implication of automation being used?

Hello,

I was looking at the AUR today and I have realised a ton of packages
with the prefix r-<package name> being updated within a minute of each
other, and then found the user to be publishing them:

https://aur.archlinux.org/account/BioArchLinuxBot

By the name it seems this is a Bot, Anthraxx and Jelle have already
discussed how this is not acceptable in a previous thread, see:

https://lists.archlinux.org/archives/list/aur-general@lists.archlinux.org/message/AYISVT7SOB444HXHIF2CKA2TIHBESH2D/

https://lists.archlinux.org/archives/list/aur-general@lists.archlinux.org/message/WHI4VHG3Z5B5EQB5KCISFCNAFNTHRFZ7/

A draft has also been submitted on the ArchWiki to set this into stone:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Talk:AUR_submission_guidelines#Automation_and_Package_Maintenance

Therefore I am bringing this user, and the packages which this has
occurred on to the TUs here. I have also attached an image to this email
which is a screenshot of the recently updated packages, you can use the
rss feeds to back this up as well, it clearly shows that a large number
of r packages were updated BY THE SAME USER within the span of 10 minutes.

Let me know what you think :)

Have a good day,
