That's going to happen on any popular subreddit that allows memes. This comment explains how it happens: http://www.reddit.com/r/Psychonaut/comments/o1zjo/ban_

  That comment appears to be highly insightful and very relevant to the topic being discussed here. Low effort content eventually displaces high effort content in high traffic websites. I have seen this in every community I have been part of, I have spent the last 10 years on Slashdot, 7 years on Reddit and 4 years on HN and that comment is spot on. I can only pray that SO doesn't fall victim to it too and I support the admins in restricting content as long as it is subject to oversight and is not overdone.
