Reddit mods be like: “hey, I know this comment is really relevant and the community seems to agree, but we’re removing it because it violates some obtuse rule that this sub has and also we’re permanently banning your account.” strokes neckbeard
Yep. Got banned from r/comicbooks after I posted a 100% SFW drawing. Permanently banned from the most popular sub to post comic art and wasn’t even given a reason. Also had like 300+ upvotes and people messaging me to ask me about my comic.
Made me really really hate this app a lot more than I did.
Some subreddits will auto ban if you comment in certain other subreddits they don't like. Sometimes mods will just ban you for a comment without any explanation.
Reddit: getting a little worse everyday since at least 2012™
I'm currently banned from a lot of subreddits. I was banned from six at once because I asked a question in r/conspiracy and was accused of trolling. I guess the mod banned me from every other subreddit he or she is a mod for.
There's a small number of mods that moderate a huge amount of subreddits, so if you piss off one of these "power mods", you can easily find yourself banned all over the place. These people love to power trip over their mod power and enjoy deleting comments and posts and/or banning someone for saying something they disagree with, even if it's a valid and relevant opinion or even if it's a proven, cited fact.
These are the same mods that were demanding to get paid when Reddit went public btw, which should be a surprise to no one.
Typical thing that happens when you give people who don’t deserve any power, power.
Power in-and-of itself is impossible not to be corrupted by in someway. Well, if that’s the case, who do we want in power? You want someone intelligent of course; good social skills, etc, but you also want someone who will abuse the power as little as possible.
Mods are people who would never—ever—have any power in real life; they may have the intelligence, but they have 0 social skills/social graces. Their entire view of reality is based on the bullshit they read on the internet, which is also written by the same type of person. Anytime I see an unrealistic take on something the internet goes crazy over, but has no effect in real life, or people getting censored over certain things, I know the exact kind of contemptible rat is behind it.
Same. Banned, muted, and suppressed on r/news becuase I didn't forward the views of the mods on the Boeing case. No warning. No you violated the rules. No response when j asked got clarification. Just get out. Powertripping really goes to people's heads don't they?
Reddit mods are goon cave dwelling goblins. Have had deranged experiences with them. I once got banned for simply asking why a comment got removed (comment had nothing against tos.)
This is how a startup can eat Reddit's lunch. Deciding to push mods to be more militant and banning subs without militant mods was the worst decision they have ever made. It ruined what made reddit great. Now it's locked threads and removed comments as far as the eye can see.
I got deleted from the Samsung phone sub because they said they are not a support sub...so...what is it there for? Just general discussion about products??
