'''Flooders''', or sometimes called '''pseudo-bots''', have limited use on '''Public Test Wiki''' in that virtually anyone can request either the [[TestWiki:Administrators|administrator]] tools or the [[TestWiki:Bureaucrats|bureaucrat]] bit, which, among other things, include the ability to bypass rate-limiting edit restrictions. However, its chief purpose is to prevent [[Special:RecentChanges|RC]] flooding for a generally high number of non-controversial, and usually minor, logged actions and/or edits. Note that edits, unless edited through the API, are '''not''' marked as <code>bot</code> edits, though. On TestWiki, any [[TestWiki:Bureaucrats|bureaucrat]] can add themselves or another user to the <code>[[TestWiki:Flooders|flood]]</code> user group, for testing and to prevent flooding; however, after testing, please remember to '''''remove''''' your access. The key, though, is the access [[rfc:2119|'''must''']] be temporary. As a "[[wikt:rule of thumb|rule of thumb]]," this is ''usually'' for a few hours, but ''may'' be for up to several days.
