Over the past few days , possibly longer, someone has been making new accounts and using them to post scat porn in various communities here. Like, gifs of poop coming from buttholes.

What the fuck and can we do something about it?

    Just a suggestion but how about making a barrier of entry to post images? Like >5 posts with >5 up votes and 48 hours will unlock images functionality? It won’t be a silver bullet but might make it annoying to create multiple accounts and participate enough.

      And if they go through it enough to get enough accounts to upvote themselves to get past the barrier then it’d be easier to forensically find all their accounts and shut them all down. It’d make them lose a lot of time enough for a deterrent.
