What the fuck.
My Reddit account would be 4 years old next week, but for some unknown reason I got permanently banned.
I genuinely don’t understand why, but I wouldn’t be surprised if this is part of the enshittification of Reddit Inc. I’ve never posted anything hateful or doxxed someone. Just mainly discussed Dutch football matches. That’s it. I don’t think discussing football breaks Reddit rules, right?
I guess I’m disappointed, because a lot of great, niche communities exist on Reddit which don’t exist on Lemmy yet, so I now have nowhere to discuss some of my hobbies with random strangers on the internet.
Fuck Reddit and their shitty policy.
My daughter basically only looked at cat pics, and got randomly banned for “not being over 13”; she’s 16… she offered to send a copy of her ID and they didn’t care.
I mean it says it was because of what you posted on your other accounts. What did you post on your other accounts?
Nothing. My other account was only for lurking and I didn’t post anything; no comments, no posts, nothing.
I only post / comment on my main, but that’s now no longer possible lol.
I got permabanned for suggesting we should eat rich people too many times. Worth it, no regrets.
But for some unknown reason I got permanently banned.
Not saying this like it’s your fault. Just my theory. The message says you have ACCOUNTS plural.
Did you have more then one reddit account that you used ? Reddit doesn’t have a built in feature in the user settings SHOWING US WHICH COMMUNITIES WE ARE BANNED FROM.
So.
If you have more then one account, you can post and comment on the communities that you are banned from on your other account. Because there’s no list you can check to see if you are banned.
You could end up commenting from your other account on a sub your main account is banned from and that is called ‘Ban evasion’ and consequences for that is permanently banning all your accounts.
To me it looks like they probably have all our accounts synced up and a list of our banned communities to keep tabs. And they make sure we don’t know so well forget and Ban evade on accident.
It’s a sound theory, however I am not banned from any subreddit as far as I’m aware of, so ban evasion can’t have been the reason.
Although, as I mentioned in another comment, I have another account, but that’s mainly used for my nsfw stuff.
they didn’t like your dick pics bro.
Okay, so if there’s nowhere to discuss your niche interests, why don’t you start a community and discuss your niche interests and tell other people about them so that you can start the community here.
Got banned for making racist comments. Only the comments weren’t racist. Didn’t even touch on race. Ask any question about it and the mod just does the 28 day mute.
I got the same thing 9 days ago!
My work computer was changed that day to a dynamic IP and then boom, when I logged in I was banned!
Of course my appeal was denied.
Only one reason you created something that hurt profits
