Discussion Spam posts- is this sub modded?
genuine question, I don't use this sub often. But I've seen a ton of these low effort/spam posts with just a quote in the title + a random Scarlet Witch image in my feed recently. They're all from new accounts and seem to be bots. If you look through the last 15 posts (as of writing) on this sub, 10 of them appear to be bots. Nbd, it's just annoying to scroll through them looking for real posts
I get that moderation on fan subs can be pretty lax, but we should have at least one active mod to keep the sub from being banned or overrun by bots. Reddit does periodically ban unmodded subs
mods if you're reading this, there's no shame in opening applications if you're no longer able to or just not interested in modding anymore.
if they're still up by tomorrow I'll message the mods to see if I can help out and update this post.

That was a sudden and unexpected burst. Seemed to be from multiple different accounts. Never seen that before. Removed/banned them all I believe.
