Didn’t realize that was a thing.
Was ineviteable with the application of ai agent systems. Is probably used for a lot of platforms and for a lot more despicable things, like spreading malware, propaganda, fake news and whatnot.
Itch doing something against it should start with a clear statement that this is not allowed. But defining what exactly is not wanted, is tricky. Publishers could just as well use the agent to create the games and upload them manually. Just like ai enthusiasts and shovelware creators can do this without an agent.
In my opinion, the tos and faq strongly hint that spamming lots of low effort content is not wanted on Itch. Itch need only enforce it. And finding out the spammers should be trivial, even if they change usernames. Especially if they change usernames, because then they can just use their actual scambot prevention and detection systems. Creating new accounts to evade a ban is not allowed. And if you got restricted from posting more content, than that is such an evasion.
If they continue to let those ai slop spammers flood the system, there will be more ai slop games than regular games on Itch in a few months or years.
But I think the real problem are all the users that play or even pay for the slop.
Oh, and you can mark text, then select the leftmost icon in the editor and select Quote.
And if you use markdown, use a > to quote text.
The way you quote is hard to read.
