Reddit - Dive into anything
www.reddit.com

An automod is making posts asking for moderators in subs where the mods have either been purged or left reddit on their own accord. The predictable result is a flood of copypasted applications from bots.

    To clarify these are not bots but users expressing their opinion in this fashion. The r/modcoord thread where I saw this has some comments with the background. /r/ModCoord/comments/15rvzb0/mod_team_for_rthingsforants_just_got_removed/

      This one is the best but I don’t think it’s a chatbot

      Allow me to mod this community. I have experience in banning the shit out of people, such as u/ModCodeofConduct, and have an itchy trigger finger. I am also in possession of a powerful microscope to help find Spez’s tictac cock. Lastly, I would reinstall the mods, except for the one who passed away and was still kept on in memory and honour of them, you heartless shitlings.

      With this, I hope you can understand just how suitable I am for this community, despite only having learned of it at the same time of you removing the dead mod, and accept me as a new mod.
