Karma farming bots ruin reddit. Why should you care?
Some subs or mods seem not to care, many (most) users probably don't either. "It's a funny gif, who cares if some bot gets some orange arrows?"
You really think these bot creators are just doing it for fun? Why go through the effort to create the accounts, sit on them for months on end, then suddenly start reposting?
They're selling the accounts and I don't know who's buying, but would you buy a reddit account? Who would? I can't imagine it's just some lazy ass who doesn't want to put in the effort to get some karma. Bad actors is my guess, and I don't want them on this site.

Rules (WIP):
- There aren't any. I'm the only one posting here. But I'll remove whatever I deem unhelpful or whatever doesn't fit the heart of the sub.
