Maybe they can make a bot-mod to automatically move these generic topics in trashcan? I think it is of demand in sections where spamming is happening mostly. As far as I know, only Beginners & Help section has this but I'm not sure if that bot is also trashing useless topics.

Anything automated could become a problem and have legitimate threads being trashed.

As far as I can see in Beginners & Help, there is no problem so far. Threads are automatically moved to the right boards but, as I say, I'm not sure if the bot also move topics to trashcan. I also recognized that possibility but these can be countered (I guess).

A shitposter should only post in any given thread once, maybe twice.

I would disagree to this. You should consider some concerns. For example, here in meta, people create new accounts to post that their account is compromised and they would have follow up questions or bunp the thread but by implementing that they can't do it anymore. I think this is quiet discriminatory.

I think not allowing noobs to create threads, while not a perfect solution, is at least doing something that might help.

I think this has been discussed in another thread. It is not. I think it will just destroy legitimate discussions due to their shitty post since they can't create topics anymore (a possibility). They will be forced to make sense to the topic they don't even understand.
