>People are banned frequently and questionable accounts vote in easily recognizable patterns.
Reddit makes it way too easy for bots to post and act like real humans. It's also way too easy to run multiple accounts to outweigh everyone else's votes and make a post seem more popular than it is.
Because of that, many mods are quick to ban suspicious-looking accounts, because on the subs where they don't, the conversation quickly becomes bots parroting the same thing over and over.
Reddit is gamed to shit by god-knows-who-all, and you can't trust anything on there that isn't a meme. The quick and easy answer is to forcibly mark bot posts as being made by a bot, which reddit won't do for whatever reason.
