Wordlinator, a Twitter account known for posting solutions of popular internet word puzzle Wordle, was deactivated by Twitter on Wednesday.

The bot account had garnered millions of followers for posting answers to the world puzzle for a year.

In conversation with AFP, a Twitter spokesperson said the account was suspended after it had violated the platform’s rules and harassed Twitter users.

The bot account would often respond to people posting their game scores on the platform. In one instance, the suspended account had tweeted, “Guess what. People don’t care about your mediocre linguistic escapades. To teach you a lesson, tomorrow’s word is” — followed by the solution to the next day’s game.

Twitter’s policy also includes the directive that Twitter accounts responsible for sending bulk, aggressive or unwanted mentions, replies, or direct texts will be suspended or permanently deleted.

Wordle, a popular internet word puzzle, gives a user six rounds to figure out a five-letter word. The puzzle is only available on a web browser. Wordle is known to be a modern-day version of Lingo, a game show.

Wordle has gained massive popularity on social media after providing its users the option to publicly share their scores online via green, yellow and gray grids.   

Although the person behind the Twitter bot account remains a mystery for now, many have assumed that the individual was able to figure out the upcoming winning words of the puzzle by viewing Wordle’s source code on its web page.

Reacting to the bot account, one aggravated user wrote, “Just what kind of sick, twisted person do you have to be to hate the sight of people enjoying a harmless activity so much you hack Wordle?”

In conversation with The New York Times, Josh Wardle, the game’s founder, shared that he had created the word game for his partner who loves to play such games. The game went public in October soon after Wardle’s close family played the game and shared their results in a group chat.
