Hi @Bombilla , why do you reply always "the hi sentence" to a new user? Do you set a bot or kind of similar? Why do you like a lot of post and ansmers from us? Not offense, I'm just curious.

Sometimes I suspected he was. Sometimes I thought he's using some automation script being not a bot by himself

On the user page, it shows 3100 days visited.
For me, that translates into a login. Can't tell if that is a remote bot or a real person.
The fact that the 
is not allocated to every posting, but selectively, suggests to me (again without guarantee) that it is a person.

I agree, he just makes a real effort to welcome everyone. He also does a lot of likes, but he doesn't like everything. Maybe Bombilla will weigh in on this discussion? Maybe give it a few likes? Or maybe he enjoys being a bit mysterious?

Interestingly, I found this.
A bombilla (Spanish), bomba (Portuguese) or massasa (Arabic) is a type of drinking straw, used to drink mate.
Mate (/ˈmɑːteɪ/ MAH-tay; Spanish: mate [ˈmate], Portuguese: [ˈmatʃi]) is a traditional South American caffeine-rich infused herbal drink. It is also known as chimarrão [a] in Portuguese, cimarrón [b] in Spanish, and kaʼay in Guarani.[1] It is made by soaking dried yerba mate (Ilex paraguariensis ) leaves in hot water and is traditionally served with a metal straw (bombilla) in a container typically made from a calabash gourd (also called the mate), from water-resistant hardwoods such as Lapacho or Palo Santo, and also made from a cattle horn (guampa) in some areas. A very similar preparation, known as mate cocido, removes some of the plant material and sometimes comes in tea bags. Today, mate is sold commercially in tea bags and as bottled iced tea.
I had a good laugh at this. I like Bombilla even more!
After some more research, I learned that the MATE Desktop is in fact named after Yerba Mate, so I would say to Bombilla, well played my friend. Well played.
