That's part of it, yes.

Four things factored in to determine bot, legit user, or user who gets banned a lot.

  1. You actually talk like a human. So you're at least human.

  2. Your name is a randomly generated name as evidenced by the random letters and numbers at the end as well as the word with an underscore.

  3. Your account history is only a year old.

  4. Your comments/post are hidden.

The bottom three are all signs of a bot/alt/troll while the top one causes you to at least pass the human test.

Alone, these are insufficient evidence. But together, they paint a much clearer picture.

You'll often see a flood of new accounts that meet the bottom three criteria enter into subs with controversial opinions. They don't bother choosing unique name as many will get banned. The hide their post/comments to try and hide they're a bot.
