About a year ago I created my one and only reddit account. Never had one before. I work at a place that is semi virtual. We are required to come into the office 2 days a week. No one has their own dedicated PC. You just pick whatever is available and sign in. Obviously everyone is using the same internet access.
When at the office and I need a break I would visit a few groups of interest on Reddit. Groups that have ZERO to do with politics or anything controversial. I have never made a post or comment about anything political or controversial. I’m in groups like NFL and Dogs.
A week ago I get a message that my account is suspended for 7 days because of a violation of a “linked” account. I have NO linked account. I only use reddit while at work and no where else. I didn’t appeal when I saw the message, I just said whatever. But yesterday I log in and now I am permanently banned.
Anyone have an explanation of what is going on and how to actually get unbanned.
Someone else at your work acted the ass and got banned. You’re on the same IP so reddit assumes you’re the aforementioned ass.
To avoid this: stop signing into personal accounts on equipment you don’t own
