u/quekkun and I have been tied up with life recently and did not realize how prolific the bots and AI bullsh*t were becoming. We are removing posts and will try to get an automod/macro that can remove "name this" posts, obvious reposts, etc.
We could probably use a couple more dedicated mods to help out. If you're interested in that role, please comment on this post.
Thanks. š½š§»
Wait ts shit is so peak, mods that admit when they've made mistakes, and more than that, apologize for it?
Perhaps I treated you too harshly...
Heh, no worries. The honesty is appreciated and actively helping us cleanse the subreddit.
Please always hold us accountable. šš»
Based based based
Yeah 7 years ago we made this subreddit in a random High School class. Definitely did not expect it to grow this large. Now that we both have adult lives this place has been neglected and we are sorry about that y'all.
We will stop the slop

This is gonna be really dumb to admit, but all of this subs first posts were from a compilation YouTube video from a now cancelled creator.
Then I promo-d the sub and I think that small flood of people caused a bunch to show up
I totally get it ! I started a sub 13 years ago that is actually irrelevant to me now š it has over 25k subscribers and I have no idea how to manage it. I have to reach out for some mods too..
What sub is it?! š¤£
"this shit shit"
This ts shit
Oh, we forgive you
The toilets must be cleaned, regardless of how weird they are
I donāt understand the āname thisā posts?
I think it started off pretty genuinelyāa survey-kind of post where the funniest/most creative name garners upvotes.
Evidently the bots caught onto this trend and inundated the place.
I could help with the moderation. I have tons of free time at work and I've been very bored there recently.
Check DMs. The two of us spoke and you seem like a p regular person
And please do something about these guys pleading for gifts. Itās a bunch of bullshit. Your website needs to get cleaned up. Im leaving it soon.
Good callout. Mind sending an example? Then we can filter comments/posts containing key phrases and words. Thanks.
Yeah, Iāll see what I can find for you but itās just these little muscle boys that think theyāre hot as poop and plead for gifts and money. Itās ridiculous. Iāll get back to you.
This is the first post on or mention of this subreddit I have ever seen
Now I hafta go look
Welcome!
Thanks
My bathroom floor is rotting and this weeks step in my - very - slow - replacement project was removing the toilet. Inside it is stamped August 12 1975.
I'm tempted to buy myself a brand new one, what do you think
Might be time to invest in a bidet!
I remember '75 like it was only a half century ago. My outhouse is much older than that, of course is has no moving parts.
And no moving bowels either.
New sub, awesome!
Oh
Of course they're whining about AI...
We are once again getting loads of 'Bot' postings with 'flares' like 'Found on the Internet' that need to be stopped.
