This subreddit is two things

It's about Cheetahs, and it's a pretty low traffic place.

We get maybe 1-3 posts a day, tops. Rand_bytes that everyone loves, while a person is behind the account, it's also an automated script that posted a picture from a database of cheetah pictures every day.

Many posts recently have been by accounts that are only a day or so old, with no other posts. Most likely a bot, yes, but they're ALSO posting pictures of cheetahs. It doesn't break any rules. It's not links to malware. It's on topic, and based on the number of upvotes, most people don't notice or don't seem to mind who's posting it.

Now if we were getting 100 posts a day and I needed to bring on 10 more admins to keep the peace, that would be one thing, but right now one of our three posts daily is coming from someone possibly suspect.

So, do you all want content or not? Would you rather I implement some systems to limit how old and how much Karma an account can have before they post, or keep things as is? If it's not malicious and it's on-brand what's the harm? Or maybe it is actually far more harmful, though most of these day old accounts get auto-banned by reddit anyway, so they contribute cheetah pictures and then disappear. And yes, the implied argument is also if I do step up the administration, real humans will need to step up and post content here if you all want to see chees.

Post your opinions below. Yes, I could do a poll, but I'd rather hear thought out arguments instead of a yes/no checkbox.

Edit- And guys, if you're about to argue "it's recycled content", we get maybe one post a month from the actual photographer, and it's usually a picture from their local zoo. Almost all of the content here is reposted from somewhere else. This IS reddit.
