I got permabanned from reddit for posting the question "what would Eisenhower do if he was present with a machine gun?" underneath a picture of a Nazi march in Wisconsin. Apparently, that is inciting violence in reddit view. Gotta keep those Nazis safe.
I got banned for replying to a sexist bigot who was saying gendered slurs and I quoted him and got banned also for using the quote feature to keep him from editing his comment. Mods banned me, didn't listen to appeals, then it became an admin issue and the admins chased me around banning my accounts for ban evasion and then eventually hit me with an IP ban and ignored all appeals, because "the original comments have been deleted." So if I want to talk shit to nazis there now I have to use a VPN.
A 12-year-old account perma'd because I called out someone for using the B-word in a relationship sub.
I am just so thrilled that our largest communication platform is being so diligently managed with such great common sense and healthy community standards. I bet the AI is going to make it even soooo much better.
I'd just hop on a VPN and let them try to keep up with the IPs.
I used a vpn and they got me with ban evasion. I'm still curious as to how they knew. It was a new account and everything, using incognito.
Probably your MAC, then
reddit has no way to get users' MAC addresses tho
there are a lot of data points that can be used to fingerprint you, none of which are your MAC address. see https://amiunique.org/fingerprint i had like 8 accts permabanned for "evasion," also because i hurt republicans feelings
No one regrets getting banned from nazi digg.
that's a good nickname
Yeah, the right is the most delicate of snowflakes. They'll ban you for asking a question, they'll plug their ears and yell shit about emails if you say something that hits home and they don't have an answer.
I got banned for implying that the Israeli palatine conflict is more complicated then an episode of G I joe. And I have said some crazy fucked up shit that flew by the radar.
Did you say that on r/worldnews? I think the mossad or some other Israeli intelligence agency moderates that sub.
That's the one.
