This isn't going to work.

Reddit has a new filter tool of sorts which automatically removes "hate" speech for moderator review, termed "crowd control". Since the accounts are new and untrusted they'll basically end up talking into this void, which is essentially a shadowban in all but name.

Getting banned isn't the issue, it's that any contentious comment from a new account is now removed by default. It's the final stage in Reddit's cancer.

Why not make the account write inoffensive normie comments for a month or two before switching to based mode? Make it just write "love it", "this" "yes", "I love reddit", "orange man bad".

People already do that, it's how most account farming works and Reddit is increasingly wise to it.

The problem is that reddit is increasingly clamping down on drama, both organic and created. Eight years ago mods would let flame wars go for days, no the thread gets nuked within minutes.

Sadly I see a future with no drama left for us.

So basically an /r/politics GPT bot before utilising the 4chan bot.

Aging accounts fixes this. I've been manually flooding the site with hate speech for almost a year now. I use reveddit.com to ensure my comment is not removed. When it is removed it is almost certainly due to the subreddit's policies.

The manual review thing applies to very few subreddits. But yeah this will be a great difficulty as the AI will need to be changed to make it subtle enough to bypass it. Either way, I doubt many subreddits will implement it anytime soon.

Maybe have an inbuilt hate-meter so that it starts off innocuous to gain karma and gets slowly more offensive over time?

I think what you're suggesting is just using normal gtp3 until you want to turn on the hate

If you go through all the trouble to automatically farm accounts, you'll probably sell them instead.

It's being enabled by default soon and I can guarantee that most of the powerjannies will use it. Reddit using AI to detect wrongthink is no secret, that's how they're so quick to ban alt accounts.
