There’s an increase of bot (I suppose) accounts who post a single or a few comics and delete their account.

One of the issue is that they’re often divisive posts (“men bad”, “women bad”, “old bad”, “young bad”, …) like they’re trying to stir up some shit (is “9gag-isation” a word ?)

I’m not sure a simple rule to prevent new account (less than X days) from posting would suffice but I have no other idea.

How could this community deal with this phenomenon ?

PS : I’m not a mod btw, but I didn’t see any rule about discussing the moderation, and I’ve seen other comments about this

Edit: they made a “tatann_2” account to post a few comics so it’s obviously a troll

Edit 2: and now I’m getting downvotes on my posts/comments, even old ones, at least I’ve pissed off the troll

    I have a tendency to post quite a bit back to back because I like to post comics from people I follow on mastodon and I only go on mastodon every once in awhile. So during the times I do actually end up there I tend to have a backlog that havent been posted and I want to share.

    Sorry if this is an issue :/ I know im definitely one of the people that do it.
