Presently, the top 10 posts on the front page are populated by spam posts by a bot, having an equal number of votes on all of them. There has to be a solution to this annoying problem.

The author, u/RelianceTrust, is not a bot. I don't think he's aware of the cross-posting rules, but he's a real person who has good intentions. The upvotes are not from him. The upvotes are a way to dilute the conversations here and disrupt the natural order of things.

I kinda disagree. Look at the posting pattern. It feels more like a legit account that got hacked and used for this.

    No, I now believe that you are a real person and weren't hacked, the iron left guy seems to have AstroTurfed you. Fwiw first part of your name unfortunately coincides with a telecom company which made me believe you're a spammer

    Anyway could you please not to post your videos to so many subs. I think I might watch the beaver one later.
