HaHaBird is an account of 1.3 years (opened August 20, 2015) who only started commenting 13 days ago.
HaHaBird's comments from 22 hours ago have precisely 11 upvoats and no downvoats. Archive.
His one comment from 7 days ago received 0 upvoats.
His comments from 11 days received 5 upvoats total.
HOWEVER his comments from 12 days ago received precisely or at least 7 upvoats for every single comment.
13 days ago every single one of his comments received at least 16 upvoats.
So what is going on here with these upvoats? Bots? Helpful alts logging in and upvoating?
I accept if I'm totally wrong but this activity is extremely suspicious and I wanted voat's feedback.

I think in this case he's acting alone and not in cahoots with those political anti-Trump posters who used bots recently.
I think he's using bots as a power play because he wants to start modding subverses. He put in a subverse request for /v/whoa today.
HaHaBird commented exclusively in u/AustralianPolice (AP) and u/EnglishPolice's (EP) posts in /v/whoa between 21 - 22 hours ago. AP and EP are two of the alts I reported in a TIL post a couple of months ago. I contend that these alts are not legitimate voat users.
If you read my TIL post, I pointed out two alts who created their accounts August 19, 2015. Is HaHaBird an alt of those users, an account made only within hours of them?
I think I know how voat would feel about a suspected alt who may be using bots for upvoats to get a sub transferred to him. But preventing such power plays is the difficulty.
