[Non comic] Increase of bot accounts
(lemmy.world)
125
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

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.
