News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

This seems like a fantastic use case for a script that cycles through users and blocks them at random and at scale.
I'll log in and just block /u/spez on all his posts.
You think admins will be affected by this? Doubtful.
You'll be lucky if it lets you block him in the first place, but it probably won't have the required effect.
Yeah, this might actually make me sign back up just to script kiddie the shit out of things.
The impact of this would be proportional to how successful you are at making comments at the top of comment chains
Just make an LLM bot that comments on anything in new that has a chance of blowing up. Early comments get the top spots. Bonus points for circlular upvoting bot armies.
There’s also the classic bot idea of just copying the top comment from the previous repost of the OP
It only affects people who replied to you and/or if you have comments high up in conment chains, basically if you have a top voted comment, no one whom you blocked can participate in that comment chain, doesn't matter if they try to reply to someone who replied to you.
