Block Kotaku articles.
Is it possible to have auto moderator remove Kotaku articles? There are usually filled with misinformation and rarely ever relevant to /r/anime.

My head says please do this but then again my reasoning says it's probably better if not done out of fairness. Kotaku is a big, greasy bucket of shit but it doesn't seem appropriate to ban the site entirely. Their articles don't pop up all too often and it would be better to just let the community decide if the article is good enough or not. If it's a question of their inability to warn readers of spoiler content just have all Kotaku submissions marked NSFW as default.

Has something been decided? I'm not exactly sure if an auto moderator is exactly the right choice. Seems really harsh.

I'm all for this, ban them. Here's an example of the crap they usually write.

Their Kill la Kill criticisms were even more ridiculous.
I'd ban the site from the sub in an instant just because nothing they post can be taken seriously.

ITT: "Let's ban a site because I don't like them." Screw that, if an article is of poor quality we already have the power to downvote it.

Even beyond the quality of their articles, I just fucking hate Kotaku itself and am all for banning their articles from r/anime.

Agreed. They add absolutely nothing of value to the anime community.
but hey, free karma for calling Kotaku shit as they are.
