gollark: Newer-generation ones are actually moderately usable. My laptop's one from some years ago runs Minecraft fine.
gollark: So similar writing style (punctuation/grammar quirks/word choice/common constructions/etc.), discussion of similar topics, similar timezone/activity times, similar knowledge or implied knowledge, sort of thing.
gollark: There are lots of ways to make alts obvious; take what you should do to hide an alt, and do the opposite.
gollark: Mine are mostly too incompetent with anything resembling a computer, and don't have anyone's passwords.
gollark: It would totally work *as* an SCP.
