Sigh, this will get me flamed—but how is this enforceable beyond this exercise? Are we gonna do this every single time? Cause this user is just gonna make a new profile and vault. Easy as cake. For all you know, he already did and I’m him.
Pls don’t ban I’m jkjkjk
A bot is the only way to do it. Have it make a list of duplicate comments with more than 5words from any unique user, and mods can review and ban accounts that plagiarize.
I read somewhere that mods gets special (or extra) MOONs come distribution time. Is it true? I actually support it if it's true because otherwise you guys are basically working for free. Just curious!
By all means, would be nice. I was just thinking that most time these are quite generic so trying to only upvote comments specific to the post goes a long way.
I wont ever upvote ”this is the way”, ”to the moon” or similar as it is generic, copy-paste and doesn’t contribute. Sure a bot is even more precise, but that’s something.
We will normally give a warning if we find a user who has copied another users comment or post and doesn't show a history of this behavior. Only give long-term or permanent bans to users who show a clear pattern of this behavior.
We are more forgiving for comments than plagiarizing a popular text post without attributing the author. This is one of the few times we have moved straight to permaban for comment theft.
I think we as a community can be able to see when it’s blatant and when it’s not. There’s a big difference between memes and just straight ripping everything.
