moosetwin ( @moosetwin@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) English26•8 months agoThere’s still a Reddit 196? I thought they shut down and moved here after the API changes
itslilith ( @itslilith@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 20•8 months agoI was surprised when I saw they opened up again. And not even a link to here or anything. Does anyone know what’s up with that?
CJOtheReal ( @CJOtheReal@ani.social ) 14•8 months agoDidn’t the Admins of reddit just kill off accounts of mods that don’t comply with reopening?
Ranger ( @Ranger@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 9•8 months agoReddit admins reopen sub & kicked the mods then appointed new mods across many subs that didn’t comply.
🇰 🔵 🇱 🇦 🇳 🇦 🇰 ℹ️ ( @Kolanaki@yiffit.net ) English22•8 months agoI got auto banned by some random sub I didn’t even know about until it informed me of the ban for participating in another sub, after posting a comment on /r/conservative that also got me banned from that sub (on purpose and worth it). I had a laugh because that’s some serious bullshit and because the sub didn’t even have 100 subscribers.
Ilovethebomb ( @Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee ) 11•8 months agoThat’s just begging to get trolled by an alt account.
V ( @vanderbilt@beehaw.org ) English6•8 months agoI always found it ironic because even if you’re just poking the bear you still get banned by some random subreddit.
usualsuspect191 ( @usualsuspect191@lemmy.ca ) 14•8 months agoPretty amazing you got the text right before it even happened!
PrivateNoob ( @PrivateNoob@sopuli.xyz ) 11•8 months agoWait there are bots like this??? Thats some peak braindead move from the mods.
Gormadt ( @Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 12•8 months agoThey’re very popular in the auth left spaces of reddit (and some that claim to not be auth left but that’s a convo for another time)
You’ll get banned for having a post history or comment history in the wrong subreddits the first time you try to make a post or comment
Funnily enough most of the right wing subreddits I tested (I was really bored) didn’t have those bots firing off
Of course I did my testing last year, but I doubt it’s changed
wewbull ( @wewbull@iusearchlinux.fyi ) 4•8 months agoCOVID was the auth left everywhere, at least in social circles.
PrivateNoob ( @PrivateNoob@sopuli.xyz ) 3•8 months agoBig big oof.
uriel238 ( @uriel238@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 8•8 months agoIn my two years experience on Reddit, the subs had lots of hidden rules usually based on the biases of the moderators. Still not sure why I got kicked off r/selfawarewolves and r/aboringdystopia.
And r/communisim booted mr for Atlanteanism which I got for understanding and explaining a NATO policy (I think).
Ranger ( @Ranger@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 3•8 months agoI got banned from one lgbt+ subreddit because I posted stuff in one subreddit where I was sticking it to homophobes.
First Majestic Comet ( @FirstMajesticComet@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) English2•8 months agoI always say to anyone still on Reddit, scope out the mod team before posting there and block any mods which are bots or that you think are chuds. They can still ban you but if they message you in Modmail while being blocked they have a risk of being suspended for harassment.
Also if you want to give it a second chance Tor works wonders against Reddit’s ban evasion systems, don’t use the same Email with them as you did before though, it’ll make it easy for them to pick up on it automatically.
CJOtheReal ( @CJOtheReal@ani.social ) 2•8 months agoWhat sub was it?
r/196. I said it in the image
