I think by running a bot, you are kinda invading Wikipedia X, if you ask for a bot status, than that makes you welcome, as opposed to someone, who floods the recent changes, and thinks he's doing good...

Which rule are we talking about? It's people from wikipedia X asking me to ask wikipedia X to have my bot get bot status. If they want my bot to have bot status, I'm not stopping them. I just find it strange for someone to say "please ask me for Y" when the one profiting from Y is that person...
Because wikipedia X probably has some rule of "accounts who edit by automated programs must/should have bot status" ?
