Is this account posting too much?

So I noticed that user Triarch who is not even a day old has posted 126 images to a wide gambit of entries, all of them communistic shitpost.

Now I like a good shitpost like any other guy and I get it. But I am wondering if it's TOO much. I mean 126 in such a short period, that seems a bit extream and almost leads me to think this is getting into spam. But I want your guy's thoughts.

A cursory glance reveals that they are all in the appropriate gallery with the right tags. Unless there's something I'm missing there isn't an issue here.

Anyone else care to weigh in?

I really don't think KnowYourMeme is the appropriate place to be spreading actual communist propaganda, and in such quantities that it makes the the "all images" gallery nigh-unusable. I went through and checked, a lot of it isn't just shitposting either, it's the kind of stuff you'd see on r/communism. It might not be blatantly against the rules, but it seems pretty inappropriate; though I could say the same thing about the constant flood of Russiagate images from another single user as well.

Just my two cents.

It is exactly as you said: shitposting. As much as us boring nobodies would love to enforce a strict policy of no-fun on KYM, there is no quantitative limit to shitposting on the site. The vast majority of forum activity, for example, takes place in either the Council or Riff-Raff, which are both dedicated shitposting boards. Calling it "spam" is a little excessive considering, as Fandroid points out, all of the uploads are properly sourced, organized, and tagged. Site activity from bots is frowned upon, but very very bored users are free to do as they please.

If anything, I'd be more concerned about how disgustingly flamebait-y his comments are.

alright fair enough, I'm fine either way but I wanted to know what was KYM's thoughts on this. I know there is a no spamming rule but he seems to tag and filter everything correctly so I guess it really doesn't matter.
