Here's a random screenshot of literally the three most recent screenshots of usernames banned by GAW's "Reddit mods." Y'all believe this epic list of losers? KEK—this is a pretty representative sample of the comedy gold-level faggotry your "Reddit-tier" mod team deals with on a daily basis! 💪😂.

Hmm.
Do you get enough applications in a day that it would overwhelm the mod team to do manual approvals? I've worked for a site in the past where we did that. We basically just had them answer a stupid ROTATING fact question and if the answer looked human, they got in.
Took time and effort, but it kept the membership quality high and reduced trolling significantly.
I know that places like this don't need additional barriers to entry, but I also know scriptkiddies are, by definition, either too lazy to commit to their trolling to too unskilled to manage any other sort of "hack."
That simple barrier could help a lot if the mod team could manage it, and you might even be able to recruit a secondary team of trusted "bouncers" who can check applications without necessarily being mods.
Being a WIN, we sort of get what we get. It's awesome code, but, that would be a helpful custom feature.
