It's tough to tell honestly. Like as an example, the daily discussion thread in music is where I'd like any and all individual tracks people want to post to be posted. But I'm not going to stop someone posting it individually to the sub. It could be bots sat farming. But it could be someone who just prefers to drop a track and walk off not wanting to use the daily discussion thread (I may not understand the logic, but they do them.) I think I'd struggle to pick out the difference between a sat farming bot and a person honestly and I don't want to discourage people from posting by accusing them of being sat farmers. So for now... It's just a wait and see approach from me.
One way to tell is to increase the cost to post. Sure it might deter some people, but it'll definitely deter the bots....just saying

Might be worth looking into for sure.
