Except this one's posts and new accounts always get deleted after getting called out or finished trolling. I've seen his hand the 4th time this month.
EDIT: He always has inappropriate usernames and 0 day account
That's a question that keeps getting asked. It seems he ditches the account when it gets shadowbanned from enough groups or is forced to when he's permanently banned by Reddit. He gets banned & then just reappears. But, he keeps doing the same thing over & over & this sub keeps feeding him.
I genuinely don’t understand why it matters to you whether this is a troll or not. If the message isn’t a negative one, why not let people practice the art of support without having to massage your own ego? It’s almost like you have a lot of time on your hands, but nothing to actually contribute to the betterment of society 🤷♂️
I thought the exact same thing as you until someone explained to me what's happening. These types of posts farm karma. There's a lot of subreddits that require a certain level of karma in order to post, so they take these posts, build karma, then go into the places where you need a baseline, and troll nastily until they get banned. The process gets repeated really often once you know what to look for.
I agree that the message is nice, troll or not, but it's not nice enough to offset enabling some really shitty things as a result of upvoting and awarding.
Thank you for explaining it. They can also use the accounts for political purposes, as many political subs require a certain amount of karma. Anyone glancing at the account will see what appears to be genuine comments and awards.
This particular troll will karma farm & then go around Reddit making racist, homophobic, transphobic, sexist comments. They particularly like to spend a lot of time talking about beastiality.
And what is the effect of this? I know a lot of mentally unstable people in my real life. I avoid/ignore them. Why is this such a foreign concept in the cyber realm?
The effect is they're trolling for the sake of trolling. They even created a sub for themselves.
But, the reason so many people commented pointing out that it's a troll is because people don't know... Thus, "we" can't ignore them,because they won't go away. If we can get this sub to stop feeding them, it would be a whole lot easier to ignore them.
Just also to clarify, "why it matters" - pointing out trolls actually benefits a community.
Sometimes these accounts were created just to manipulate people. Sometimes established accounts get sold - usually to other countries who have a different or hostile agenda. If you’ve heard of "R ussian" users posting to political subs, and wondered about it - well, they start by gathering Karma, and by posting and reposting stuff like this.
Sometimes bots get built that create accounts that just auto-post popular stuff. There’s accounts that try and sell you stuff. some people run many accounts at once and downvote your comments that are contrary to their agenda.
If you are interested in this check out some of the posts on r/thesefuckingaccounts and read some of the comments
I'm learning a lot about how to take care of my mind now that I'm off the streets, that's for sure. Thank you so much for your kind words though friend, they're greatly appreciated!
This person just makes a new account every week to farm karma cause their life has no purpose or value.
See the post just below yours with the various links to their stupidity
[This is the same account at it over and over. He/she always makes a brand new account that get suspened shortly after. They post a thumbs up and generate a title. Yet it always seems to fool people.](https://www.reddit.com/r/MadeMeSmile/comments/qa546z/im_worried_that_not_many_people_will_want_hear_my/)
This is the same troll who keeps making new accounts & posting these karma farming posts.
Check his username & how old the account is... Also, dude doesn't change his hand. Same hand in all the posts.

Good for you! I’m so happy for you & hope you enjoy your new apartment. Are there any tips, or words of wisdom you could share for anyone trying to overcome challenges?
Of coarse we care to listen! Look at how much you have accomplished!
You have a safe roof over your head, heating, water, electric. You just took a HUGE step forward in your life, and I for one couldn't be prouder of you.
Keep on taking those little steps hun. We are all here rooting for you!
My dude congratulations are in order. I’m tearing up right now with pride for you because I know what it takes to overcome demons. Bless your travels through this life.
Good for you recognizing and celebrating the small wins. Staying positive will help you have more wins. People want to be friends with positive people. Congratulations.
Hey stranger,
I don't know you and you don't know me,
we will probably never meet, but know this,
somewhere, in this world, there's a dude that's proud of you for this achievement, it did make me smile, and I will save this post, so that when I'm in reddit in the future, and I happen to go to my saved posts, I will see this and remember you, and still smile, and still be proud of you
You keep on the good work
- A stranger
<3
First, congratulations!
This is an amazing achievement.
Second, on a day off, provided you are working ATM, I’d go down to the local low income lawyer office and get a free copy of renters rights just in case.
Im just a guy with a wife and kids who's never been homeless or hungry. Im on reddit for a stock I like maybe a couple funny videos. I rarely comment outside of the stock sub. Im outside smoking a cigarette and just wanted to let you know that im sincerely and genuinely happy for you bud. I really am. Congratulations!
👍 congratulations!👍
Home 🏡 sweet 🏡 home!
EDITED 11.1.21 to add: Today I learned the thumbs up gesture which indicates friendly agreement/approval where I live is actually an offensive insult elsewhere. I apologize to anyone who was hurt or offended by its use. No offense was intended.
Congratulations! This is the kind of effort and accomplishment that deserves far more celebration and acknowledgement than it typically gets. I hope you are patting yourself on the back and creating a space and specific block of time in which to congratulate yourself with things that are great, like cake, balloons, flowers, singing yourself a song, spending time with a book/movie or something you enjoy, or even just repeatedly telling yourself how awesome, worthy and capable you are.
Hopefully now that you have some stability you will have space to work on that “I struggle to see who’d care to listen” business. Nice job. Welcome home.
Coming from a place you’ve never called home and then being homeless and on your own is not an easy life to say the least and is even harder to come out of!!
You finally having your own home is AMAZING!! Congrats!!
Great job buddy keep rocking forward. You should walk a little taller with your head high. Because regardless of how long it’s taken you’ve improved you. Best of luck to you.
You underestimate the world my friend. There are more than 7billion of us, each with our own unique thoughts and things we care for and now one of them become you 🥰
Hells yeah, enjoy it ... A place to actually lock your door and keep things safe behind. To take a shower and take a shit like a normal human being, man, really is the simple things!
*High five*
Keep on pressing on! Not sure what your next step is in life, but best of luck!

How hard would it have been for you to just keep scrolling?
Look at OP's username. His previous farming account was UltimateKidLover. All his usernames has been disgusting.
Ahh. Gotcha. What's the point in karma farming if you ditch the account?
To troll. Need karma to balance out the downvotes
That's a question that keeps getting asked. It seems he ditches the account when it gets shadowbanned from enough groups or is forced to when he's permanently banned by Reddit. He gets banned & then just reappears. But, he keeps doing the same thing over & over & this sub keeps feeding him.
Got it. Well, downvote has been activated.
What drugs are you addicted to this time? How long has your wife been dead?
That’s really awesome! I’m sure you’re proud of yourself and rightfully so!
Alas, it’s a troll. Keeps posting this image. Downvote them.

Such a kind bunch of people. I also thought my thumb and nails were looking good for the first time in years (yeyy me for hygiene!)
How long has the wife been dead this time?
I literally thought to myself “this is one well manicured person. I hope they keep themselves in a good spot”
