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.
Yup, had this happen on 2 different accounts, both of which were in good standing. Same as you, no given explanation despite the message saying there would be, and no real recourse to appeal despite there being a provided link that simply looped on itself. Eventually, I was able to get a human via the “support team” who gave me the answer “All bans are final.”. Your options are to make a new account or stop using their shit platform. Pick your poison.
I pick bourbon. Oh . . . oh, we were talking about something else. But, yeah, I’m going with quitting the platform. I don’t see the use in trying to fight it, and even if I were to ‘win’, this will probably happen again in another month or so.
Side note: are you a raccoon that likes to debate, or is it debatable that you are a raccoon?
My skills as a raccoon are debatable
Hmm . . . sounds like something a tricky raccoon would say to get me to let my guard down and . . . damnit, my trashcans!
Yiiiis, such delectable trash
Hey, you know what they say. One man’s trash is another man’s F*CK YOU THIS IS MY APPLE CORE
Making a new account doesn’t work, even using VPNs doesn’t seem to get around their ban if you create a new account. It will be permabanned in like a day.
