re-tweeting of @replies is causing confusion - need a leading character

Feed-tweet bot is confusing people when it re-tweets tweets starting with "@". Need to be able to add a leading character of some sort.

For example, I have not sent any tweets to anyone, yet my @Replies tab is full of stuff like this...



...because the tweets coming from my bot come out like this...



If we could at least have the option to insert a leading character, whether fixed or of our choosing so that the message wouldn't appear to be an @reply to the person whose name follows the @ sign, that would help. If not a traditional "RT @username:", then perhaps an ">" or "*" before the rest of the tweet?

Some folks might be able to filter out the @replies so they don't get re-tweeted at all, but that would largely defeat the purpose of what I'm trying to do since I'm re-tweeting tweets of gratitude, which tend to consist primarily of @ replies. :)

Thanks!
 
silly I’m unsure if people realize that my bot's retweets are retweets and not original content.
Inappropriate?
