I think it’s insane that people want a bot reposting other people’s complaints from a mostly-OC community. It’s just ragebait at this point, no justifying it with “I needed to vent”
So thanks to this bot, we know that some people we’ll never interact with are infuriated by something. Cool. Great community idea.
This place was doing fine before the spambot showed up. More content doesn’t mean better content. Why must every site be a bucket to dump the same content from the last site into?
I don’t mind ≠ I want something. If it is about creating a great community you have two very wonderful tools: moderation and collective action. If multiple people in this community have negative feelings about this, either collectively act (downvote this kind of content, block this kind of posters etc) or set up rules that a moderator can use. Don’t do nothing yet expect everything to remain the same, that is madness.

Hence why I’ve left a lot of comments letting people know they’re responding to a bot.
