What Are Some Good Automoderator Rules in Place to Prevent Bots?
Post Body

I recently wrote up a post about how several pet subreddits are 100% botted content: https://www.reddit.com/r/TheoryOfReddit/comments/1dwebpd/entire_front_page_of_rpetsareamazing_is_100_botted/

I was curious what theoretical automod rules could be put in place to curb these posts?

What are some things that would be impossible or hard for these accounts to bypass?

Account age isn't that useful as a lot of them wait 3 months to start.

I think checking for 500 comment karma might help.

I'm curious about what others think and if there are better solutions that can be recommended.

Comments

I do filter everything below 3 days old or 50 comment karma, and it deals with 99.995% of fake accounts and stupid folks...
