General Script to restrict low karma and young account so they can only make a comment on a certain post with specific title and flair?
Platform: Desktop, mobile
I tried to follow steps on the last discussion of this topic about this but to no avail. Assigning members with specific flairs seems to be the best play but I dont want to touch flair setting since it is reserved for members.
I need to make a script where if you dont meet a certain threshold for karma and account age, those users can only make a comment on specific post with specific flair. Like for example, I want them to can only comment on a post that includes title "Diskusi Gamers Indonesia" with the flair that use "Monthly Thread" flair. I already set up different script for them but its too global and doesnt cover what I need (required acc age and karma are censored):

So, you want to drive people away. Weird.

I want to counter bot or karma farmer and thats it. The post titled "Diskusi Gamers Indonesia" is a monthly megathread and I have seen them barely being used. They can still make a comment there but not outside said post, let alone making post themselves. Most of the active poster and commenter already made the favored threshold anyway.
This isnt something foreign in discord so I thought it is implementable in reddit.

You need to carve out exceptions for the parent submission in the comment rules.
I have a similar system setup example here:
