u/UncomfortableAnswers

For the last couple weeks there have been multiple bot posts here every day, reposting the top posts of the sub. They're outnumbering posts by real users at this point. Most of the accounts have no karma and are hours old.

I keep reporting them as spam, and the accounts are successfully getting banned, but more are coming back every day and plenty of other users are commenting fully unaware they're trying to interact with a bot.

Can something be done about this? An age or karma gate, whether permanent or temporary?
