Can someone please make a bot that responds to people every time they comment “/s”?
I am so fucking sick of dumbass redditors writing “/s” at the end of every sarcastic comment they make. If you’re going to end every sarcastic comment with “btw that was sarcasm” then you might as well not even write anything sarcastic in the first place. It completely defeats the point of sarcasm. And any funny sarcastic comment is instantly made unfunny. The only reason people include “/s” is because they’re afraid of getting downvoted. But if you’re actually afraid of losing reddit karma, you’re a massive pussy and you deserve to get downvoted.
So how do we combat this? We make a bot that detects every time someone makes a comment that includes “/s”. Then we have that bot reply to that person with the following:
“I just downvoted your comment.
#FAQ
**What does this mean?**
The amount of karma (points) on your comment and Reddit account has decreased by one.
**Why did you do this?**
I was not able to determine whether or not your comment was sarcastic. One ‘/s’ is simply not enough.
**Am I banned from the Reddit?**
No – not yet. But you should refrain from making comments with only one ‘/s’ in the future. Otherwise I will be forced to issue an additional downvote, which may put your commenting and posting privileges in jeopardy.
**How can I prevent this from happening in the future?**
To avoid future downvotes, please mark any sarcastic comments with at least three “/s” ‘s. This will help to avoid any confusion about whether or not you are being sarcastic.”
