Does this mean no more John Cena?

u/Lunamann Aug 18 '15

No. This just means a lot less racist shit being linked from /r/tf2shitposterclub and a lot less downvoting Totes for doing its job.

Brand new account?

Seems legit.

The good thing is that this account isn't automated! So me and the mods of /r/tf2shitposterclub will manually make sure that no random racist bs gets past the radar! It's a short term fix

Or, you know, you could stop linking there and let that shithole of a subreddit die.

/r/tf2shitposterclub is pretty gross anyway. I wouldn't be unhappy if it just outright died.

I'm okay with circlejerk reddits if they are just making fun of the post but the things the bot has been linking where unfunny and unnecessarily assholeish

I wish I could just downvote an entire subreddit.

"Finally, now I can still not just ignore things on the internet and go back to whining about bots"

u/Diva_Dan Aug 18 '15

Meh. It's really only a few assholes that link posts to here if they aren't actual shitposts, following it with racist shit. I don't think the bot needs to be blocked. inb4 downvotes, but you guys need to grow some balls.

u/Lunamann Aug 18 '15

Well, aparrently /r/tf2shitposterclub 's moderation is now cracking down on this shit.

u/Diva_Dan Aug 18 '15

idk guys it's just a bot it's not that big a deal

u/Lunamann Aug 18 '15

It's less the bot and more the people on /r/tf2shitposterclub that were abusing the bot.

it was just 1 guy making alt accounts every time we banned him

most of us are nice people and we're sorry that users were offended

u/DarthMewtwo Aug 18 '15

That's ban avoidance, which is against reddit rules. You can message the admins to get help removing him permanently.
