Reddit's user made bots are an awesome addition and I'm very glad they are not opt-in.
I think there is room in every community for automated users, if the tools for managing misbehaving users is strong enough. Github however has been known to not have strong moderation tools, so perhaps a temporary opt-in policy could be used until those tools improve?
