What's with all the 8 month old accounts with no payment and empty profiles that visit my store every day? Are there some kind of bots or something? Just to add, they all have different names. I've asked another content creator and apparently they're traffic bots, how does that work? 

How do they know they're traffic bots? Traffic bots typically hang around, not visit and leave.

Apparently they're called 'Normie bots' and they're a bit of a mystery..

It really brings into question the whole 'how many people play second life' malarky because at the moment it's 30% of my store traffic and they've all got different names.

If they have names like these, they're generally grid survey bots.  They're harmless and usually only stay for a few seconds.

I've seen these roam on the new lands I bought. And they came back regularly for at least first 3 weeks.
