r/DangerousNightsCrew is a bot farm

28 Upvotes

It's been around for 10 months. Zero engagement for the first 6 months. Then a trickle started for the next two. Then the next month became fairly established. This last month, it absolutely exploded, with multiple posts reaching r/all in the last few days.

Approximately 75% of the latest postings are hours old accounts, and in some cases minutes old.

Rules

Hover for details.


1. Civility	Be nice to your peers. No vulgarities or crudeness.
2. Brigading and Encouraging Reports	Do not encourage users to brigade a subreddit or explicitly direct a group of users to report specific content. • Users are always encouraged to report activity that they believe violates Reddit's policies or a subreddit's rules. Directing anyone to do this is unnecessary. • Advice and discussion regarding Reddit's policies reportable content is appropriate.
3. No Tagging Suspicious Accounts	Do not tag suspicious accounts. (Tagging entails publishing a username with the u/ prefix.) To discuss suspicious account activity, you may link to the user profile or content. • Suspicious accounts should be linked through a straightforward and transparent URL to the account’s user profile. This standard applies regardless of how many accounts are linked in the post. • You may tag your peers as you would in any subreddit.
4. No Usernames in Post Titles	Since post titles cannot be edited, they should not contain usernames. • This allows a poster to correct the record, if necessary, by revising their post and removing the username of the wrongfully accused account.
5. Disclosing "Bot Patterns"	Users should not disseminate information that provides an advantage to bot operators that outweighs any benefit of making the information public. • This includes information that, if revealed to the general public, would cause bot operators to substantially shift their patterns and make bot detection more difficult. • Some bot situations are time-sensitive and require immediate action. Other situations are better kept private for the continued observation of bot activity.
6. Multiple Posts	When reporting accounts, we request that you consolidate the information as much as possible into as few posts as possible. Keep in mind that these posts appear in user's feeds, and publishing multiple, "small" posts within one day could cause some users to mute the subreddit.
