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’m just a random, but I’ve seen it as well over there last few weeks. Much more obvious when browsing by hot or new, and then the author isn’t findable from dbzero anymore. Or if they are, it’s the only post, it’s bait, and then they disappear. Hard to track.
