Pretending to be different people to post qualifies as 'fake posts'.

Fake it till you make it, or fraud?

Either way it's still bullshit.

While I am very ready to be critical of Reddit, including its creators, community, interface, and aesthetic, I am not personally offended that a couple jabronis posted a bunch of stuff to build up some initial momentum.
