cooking reddit accounts

Cooking a reddit account is the act of making a fake account on reddit long before it's needed, by intermittently posting and commenting to lend credibility to the account when it's eventually put to use. Accounts can be created with the final purpose in mind already, or old or purchased accounts can be repurposed to become sock puppets.

Reasons someone might cook an account in advance include the ability to influence discussions, express controversial opinions without being immediately dismissed as a biased party (like paid or volunteer supporters who promote specific agendas, such as Israeli hasbara trolls that are paid or volunteer to astroturf support on social media to make it appear that their position is more popular than it really is), or share fabricated content that might be met with greater scrutiny if posted from a newly created account (such as individuals who cook accounts to share fake UFO videos they've made, disguising them as authentic recordings by ordinary people).

The difference between cooking an account and the expression "sockpuppet account" lies in the fact that cooking specifically involves the pre-planning of false engagement on an account over a period of time, whereas a sockpuppet account applies to any account being used for deceptive purposes.

The term "cooking" is derived from the act of preparing food over a period of time before it is ready.

"I posted that UFO video we made on the subreddit but everyone knew it was fake right away because the account was too new. So this time, I decided to try cooking reddit accounts, and spent the two months adding random comments and posts every few days. Hopefully when I post this new video they will be a lot less skeptical!"

The black hole of the internet. The place where ultra "introverted" slash social rejects coalesce to make stupid offhand comments and in general, waste their life. The members of this site live in their parents basement, and are nursing a weed addiction because they never got picked in gym class. They do nothing productive, and yet, possess a shocking amount of entitlement. They believe the world is a liberal arts college campus and they can live in a "safe space".

These people are too busy figuring out made up mental illnesses such as what gender they "identify" as to ever make a meaningful impact on society.

Hey man do you want to hang out with that dude? Nah he goes on Reddit. I'm gonna keep my distance.

Reddit marketplace

The backdoors of Reddit, (NOTE: I didn't actually give a correct name so you won't immediately find it), this is a very easy to get to place that isn't often talked about on places on YouTube not because it's that bad just because you will lose money, this word describes types of subreddits that include gore,drugs, pedofelia, wierd fetishes,but the most common is porn, an average redditor doesn't like to admit this but the reason most people go on Reddit is to look at rule 34 of different video game characters or find uncensored versions of animations, I'm convinced that at least 30 percent of Reddit is like this,

"Don't go to the Reddit marketplace"
"Why?"
"Just don't"
