Rampant bot subs and new modding bot for crossposting
Post Body

Hey Everyone, Reddit has so many bot account these days causing issues.

We are here to help! /u/HSpamSlayer Is a bot designed to keep spam out of your front page and/or subreddit, it does this by banning any user that crossposts from a sub used mainly by spam bots. There's a lot of these being created and they're filled with spam, advertisements, and are run by bot accounts. They also often have malicious links advertised on them. Be careful crossposting subs that have pinned ads and/or with spam content on them.

Just be careful using these subs. Reddit has been taking them down left and right. Don't get flagged as a bot erroneously by automod!

There's an appeal subreddit for the bot as well, that was just set up to appeal erroneous bans. This is because /u/HSpamSlayer will ban you on a network of subs for crossposting from blacklisted subs. This subreddit's mods can unban you from this sub, but if you got banned from multiple they can't help you with that. It's better if you use this subreddit to appeal your ban /r/HSpamSlayer

FAQ
