Fuck bots. Reddit really should put a handle on them all. Ive banned maybe a 100 manually.

Our current list is 887 banned bots. And that count excludes all of the bots that have been permanently banned or suspended. It is *crazy* how many annoying bots people have created.
That being said, I'm glad Reddit does have public APIs because of all of the great bots and tools that also exist. I'm pretty sure they've been key to Reddit's success as a platform.
