I agree, and this is pretty much what I said myself yesterday in a group PM regarding the issue. I can't stand behind policing the sub, and I think enforcing the Voat User Agreement is the job of Voat ownership; we're mods, and our job is to enforce rules agreed on by our community.
With that being said, while I will not support banning @PizzagateBot for violating the Voat User Agreement, I will support banning him for spamming if he keeps this copypaste vigilantism up. There's a difference between wanting to provide information for the citizen investigation, and aggressively pushing your own narrative.
Just to make it crystal clear, since my main purpose here is archiving content, I will not have my comments removed, nor be banned, for providing archive/screenshot links to user deleted content?
Using an archival bot account will not grant you special privileges in this sub, especially seeing how you use said bot account for slipping in your own normative opinions, essentially hijacking the unique visibility of your account and misusing community trust.
I would like to ask you to refrain from using the bot for anything that's not the bot's business, and also from spamming the same information over and over again. If you can properly source it, post and discuss it once, and then move on. I do understand that you tried doing that and your submission was removed, however, it is my understanding that it was removed for insufficient sourcing as opposed to a violation of the Voat User Agreement. You received your warnings for violating the Voat User Agreement, this was, in my opinion, incorrect. You should have received the warnings for spamming.

That is fine, judging from the upvoats I received with those comments, if you gag me, then someone else will carry the torch. I can assure you this. Making sure that people are aware of the controversy behind an account that claims to be a 'researcher' is not spam. Feel free to link to this chain of comments each time I comment in this fashion, if it helps you sleep at night.

Thanks for your opinion. I have been here since /v/pizzagate inception and have gone through a dozen or more accounts for personal commentary. I do so for my own security and to avoid being data mined. I do have another active personal account that I continue to post with which has not been linked to this one.
In any case, my commentary under this account, aside from the dealings with psychanaut, are usually just me sharing a generic opinion to see how it resonates with the community. It usually resonates well so I continue to do it. I will continue to comment under any account I wish to use, including this one.

LOL fuck off, who are you to dictate what is 'the bots business'. I'm gonna put this quote in my user account profile it is so fucking ridiculous.

No, I won't conform to what you consider an ideal usage of an account or an ideal comment.
This is voat, stop trying to manipulate and mold things into the way you think they should be.
Stick to your job of cleaning up pinched off turds, which you only seem to scoop up 50% of, and leave everything else up to the big boys.
Being cocky and not showing any sign of cooperation is not gonna get you very far. Rest assured, if you get banned, it will be because of repeated violation of subverse rules.

My views and interpretation are open to be challenged, @Vindicator, @Crensch, @Millennial_Falcon, @sensitive, @nnfx.
