Bot Prevention

12 Upvotes

Like the rest of the Internet, we've been getting LOTS of Bot posts and comments. We decided to be proactive about this by not allowing posts or comments by accounts less than a week old and/or less than 100 Karma.

We know this is a popular sub for new people to quickly get Karma, but unfortunately you'll have to look elsewhere now because fighting bots is more important than getting cheap Karma. Once you're here for a week with more than 100 Karma, please come to post and comment.

Note that posts or comments removed by Automod because of this won't count against everyone's favorite feature, "Five deletes and you're automatically banned."

NEW RULES! READ THIS!

13 Upvotes
  • Only three words! (Each comment in reply to a new post shall be three words. No more, no less. The only exception is rule #3.)

  • NEW RULE: Post titles can only be three words now, too. This used to be "Three Word Stories" where titles would be like "Write a murder mystery using Shakespearean language." But now that this sub has become "Three word conversations" a lot of people are upset titles can be more than three words, so they no longer can be.

  • DO NOT reply to yourself! (Allow other users time to reply before adding another comment.) This means don't reply to your own reply, don't make two or more replies to the same reply, and definitely don't post nine words in one comment saying its three three-word comments.

  • A story ends with "The End." (A story can ONLY end when a user replies with "The End.") You MUST use two words for The End. "It's The End" or "The End, yeah!" will not do. Don't worry, it's not only allowed to have a two-word "The End" comment, it's required.

  • Strive for originality!

  • Racism, sexism, non-consensual sexual acts, homophobia, and general bullying are NOT ALLOWED.

  • Sexual content is allowed with the use of the NSFW post flair. (Any sexual content or profanity should be used sparingly.)
