I wouldn't even look at what other communities someone is participating in

  You get a flood of people praising Hitler in your subreddit. 1000 per day You have two buttons in front of you: ban individual user (ban form takes 30 seconds minimum to load and fill out), and ban all from /HitlerLovers. Which do you pick.

    That's not what happened with r/conspiracy users getting banned in other forums. Yeah I guess it has its place but that feature has been mostly misused from what I've seen.

      You're also a mod of six different forums. Do you wait until each one gets targeted by /HitlerLovers before configuring the bot to ban them or do you just leave off the filter from the bot and have it ban them everywhere it has power to?

        > You're also a mod of six different forums. That alone shows that the hyothetical "you" is the last person who should be allowed to moderate anything.

    Then, with the same stroke of the pen you gave the proverbial Hitler lover the means to purge the proverbial Jew or Palestinian. That one can only do it within reddit is of course merely a technical limitation. The idea can be implemented much more broadly.

      You know it's not something Reddit set up, right? It's a bot that has moderator powers. They can't really stop you from doing it.
