So why the hell does reddit ban people so easily? I got banned from one games sub for something i did not do and could not contact the mods since they also banned me from doing that.

So only option left is to make a new account so i get access to the sub so i can ask for help there since i had problems with the game. Well it worked and i got my problem with the game solved but after that i got permanently banned for ban evasion :/

There was no ill intent with any of my posts and was wrongfully banned the first time. Sure ban evasion is forbidden but it should not be so strictly moderated, concidering that a person can be banned by a mod just because they misunderstand one of ur comments or just generally want to cause harm to some users. There needs to be a way to avoid mods abusing their power and only way to do so is making a new account.

Now there is no way for me to get help with the game if i ever have more problems, or anyway i can help someone else who has problem i know how to solve. That’s unreasonable.

    My local library, every hotel and Starbucks are such black holes they do exist. They are also becoming more common.

    I live in a popular tourist area, iv seen signs that warn people to not log into their social media accounts while attending due to possible ban issues.

    Tho it covers twitter, Facebook and tiktok along with reddit.

    The really really big cons don’t really deal with it since most of the big social media sites ignore the ips for those locations. Tho that’s not entirely a full proof solution

    A buddy of mine got banned on reddit and Twitter both for ban evasion/no reason given respectively after logging in at a national level convention here. He worked for reasonably sized media company at the time too.

    Automated IP baning like always has been a mess and barely functional. It’s basically never worked reliable and always has collateral damage.

    Hardware id and mac address banning do the same thing tho more in frequently.
