This mod seems familiar. They may be the offending party behind my worst experience on Reddit, and the only mod I ever blocked.
Handed me a temporary ban for responding to a post written to the wrong sub. They didn't have time to write out a redirect link to copy and paste for lost redditors, but did have time to mark me as trouble and berate me when I suggested redirecting users. Since a temporary ban "wasn't enough," they gave a longer ban so I would "learn my lesson."
Really put a damper on my whole reddit experience.
you got banned for replying to a post someone else made in a wrong sub?
This mod was infamous for banning people from uncontroversial subs for the sin of commenting in subs they didn't approve of, regardless of content. Like if you made a comment in /r/conservative making fun of Donald, they'd ban you from /r/videos for being a Republican.
This couldn't have happened to a more deserving dirtbag.
Yes.
No loss IMO. The moment a mod starts doing crap like that, the sub is dead to me anyway.
