Honestly, I’d be interested to hear about your adventures.
My only site ban (which I got overturned eventually) was from commenting in agreement with a post of a woman wearing a shirt that said “Punch a Nazi.” It was shortly after that, that I came here and haven’t looked at Reddit since.
“Report button abuse” for reporting too many blatant ads as spam.
It happened right around the same time as the API fiasco, so I didn’t give two flying fucks. I was leaving anyway.
I got banned for telling conservatives to go fuck themselves too intensely.
A posted a meme in r/conservative that featured the home addresses of prominent conservative talking heads in a thread about how the left can’t meme.
Banned from r/worldnews for “racism” (said that the Russian elites have been committing social and moral degradation for centuries, by killing, imprisoning or exiling anyone with independent thoughts). Banned from numerous subreddits for “participating in a hate subreddit” (correcting someone once in r/KotakuInAction).
I drifted away when they banned Opie and Anthony and cumtown subs.
My lil shitposter heart died a bit but it was for the best. 196 and Lemmy shitpost have their moments
Said some Taliban in a video deserved death. About that dispassionately too.
My account got suspended and I had no posts on the account. Stuff like this is why I use alternative sites instead of big tech sites.
Someone said the brazen bull probably wasn’t a real thing and I suggested trying it out on child molesters if they wanted to see if it would actually work or not. Reddit mods hate when you suggest that child molesters deserve to suffer for some reason…
I didn’t. I left when they killed RiF
They killed Apollo in cold blood!
Same, sad they killed rif but at least it pushed me to lemmy
So, I had a bunch of socks and wanted to spread out my activity so I’d be harder for mods to build a profile on and gatekeep me from spaces based on my activity
none got site-banned, only ever got myself sub banned from r/conservative for being a shitty little debate boy. but when mods started to suspect something was up they’d eventually stop approving my comments to be posted. in 2023 they got a fancy new mod suite where all comments are approved manually and you could leave notes on users for other mods to see. mine probably said something like “shitty little debate boy” or “terminally online”.
anywho after they started making votes a bannable offense, I just decided to stop warming up alts.
but what about your story? you can’t just make this thread and then not share
I just nuked my account and fecked off to Lemmy after the API kill.
I got blocked from the subreddit I created because I made it private due to the API debacle and refused to make it public until they undid the decision.
I just… left.
They didn’t ban me; I banned them…
I got banned for “attempting to circumvent a ban” despite not being banned at the time.
Wait, can you tell more?
No. I don’t know anything else. I tried to appeal the ban but never heard anything else. Fuck 'em
By the way, my 3rd account was banned because I asked why my post was banned.
Maybe you had the same username as someone who got banned?
Don’t know. Don’t care. Reddit is a hot pile of garbage.
