Okay, posting this here because it is literally called No Stupid Questions, but I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on this.
I got a message today on Reddit saying I was permabanned . . . I had really good karma there, never received any notification that I had done anything wrong, and never had a post deleted. The message said to check my inbox for more details . . . but there were no details in my inbox. I tried to appeal, and it was just denied in a couple of hours. No explanation.
Anyone else experience this or know what other avenues I can take? I’m going to be honest here, I had made a lot of friends there. I suppose I could make a throwaway account to let them know where else they can find me, but I’m pretty bummed out.
For context: I kind of prided myself as being a “Ted Lasso of Reddit.” I mostly just got on to give people pep talks in the beginner fitness and /toastme subreddits. I’m going to miss that a lot, and I kind of needed a community right now, even if it was an online one. But, hey, maybe that’s just my sign to check out this place instead. I’ll try to look at the bright side.
I got a 7 day ban for saying you haven’t served your life sentence until you are dead, they said that was promoting violence, I decided if they rejected my appeal it could only mean they don’t actually read appeals and I should just leave.
Oh . . . wow. I don’t think I did anything wrong, but I’m certain whatever I did was worse than that. I’m pretty sure I’ve said worse things to my favorite dog today (it’s okay to have favorites). Plus, that was really f*ing funny. Reminds me of when my friends and I have “stoner thoughts” competitions.
My last winning one was “Whenever you shorten ‘convenience store’ and call it a ‘c-store’, you are removing the convenience for the sake of convenience.”
I sure don’t mean to go off topic but it’s against TOS to have a favorite dog and not post a picture to back it up.
