Karma system in the official forums?

All you need to do is look at their lodestone profile and you can clearly see that OP is an alt character. They have all of the telltale signs:

1 combat job at 80
All crafters + bot and miner at 80
In a solo FC
Only the mounts and minions you would get from job boosting a character

Infact, take a close look at the lodestone profiles of the posters of the 'November isn't fall' and 'Balance admin drama / FFXIV has a bad story' threads. Remarkably similar, no? Fits the same profile as I listed above with even more similarities. Same character birthdates, both unlocked gladiator to level 2 with exactly 500xp, both unlocked fisher and are on 200xp, mounts and minions are identical (apart from one having the unicorn because they job boosted WHM). The fact that they are so similar you could also say that their movements and levelling were somewhat...scripted. If you know what I am saying.

Yeah, it feels like, like the game, the forum is being overrun with bot accounts... Its made them much worse than they used to be.
