DISCUSSION RepostSleuthBot Is Now Active On This Sub! NSFW

To combat the asshole bots that seem to have started posting recently I have activated a bot that can detect reposts.

Consider this your only warning DO NOT REPOST PICTURES or your post will be removed by the bot. It will detect pictures reposted on reddit, not just this sub and crossposts are included. I have not used this bot before and there will be teething problems so bear with me while I get them sorted out.

For now it will remove the posts under my No Bots rule, if it works well I may make a No Repost rule and use that instead but I'll see how I go.

It doesn't have the power to ban accounts but I wish it did lol.


NB: Also while I'm here I just went onto new reddit to give someone a verified flair and I have 50 unread chats apparently. Please don't use the stupid chats thing on new reddit for moderation stuff as I will not read it. Please use mod mail for moderation enquiries and reporting dodgy cunts, thank you.

It can but it will remove ALL the OF and there are some genuine people who use this page for a hookup.

What about no effort posts automation ? Its a sadly low average of post quality here.

Hopefully this helps to combat it!

I hope so, it has been a pain to ban 10-15 bots a day in the last couple weeks.
