I have had multiple accounts through 15 years on reddit but reddit has become hardcore ban happy and I’ve stopped even trying to get around it at this point and have stopped using the site completely.

So what was the dumbest reason you were banned?

Mine was going into a far right sub that was discussing lord of the rings, for some reason lotr is huge with the far right including the current vp. Anyway all I did was post lotr sucks and a video link to clerks 2 where Randall tells Elias and the customer that the movie is nothing but walking and that the true ending should be frodo bricking into Sam’s mouth.

I got reported and site wide permabanned from a far right sub for gay bashing when the intent was anything but that. That’s when I noticed the glory days of reddit were starting to fade.

    I was banned from r/therightcannotmeme because my profile pic (same as here) is somehow bad. Had to pester the mods to even get an explanation, and they replied with one of those fancy terms marxists use. Imperialist? Reactionist?

    Then - much more influential to me - I got kicked out from modding a sub (the only sub I ever modded) because I asked the head mod too many questions, or questioned their way of modding. Powertripping that person was.

    I don’t like when people shit on mods, because moderation is necessary. But that person basically proved all the haters right for me. And the silence of the other mods in that sub.
