I’ve gotten all of my warnings, bans, etc. successfully appealed. It’s crazy how easy it is to get someone reported. One time I got banned after calling out a bot spammer who openly admitted to abusing the reporting system with their bots. Then they said they were going to get me banned, and they did. It took almost a week to get unbanned after filing an appeal and the person who did it still didn’t get banned!
Their whole system is a bad joke.
I found if I overdo politeness, I never get any drama.
they also tend to ignore majority of appeals too. ADMINS are a very small group that controls the bans/unbans.
I had a couple of warnings and always appealed successfully
People are losers sometimes that want to claim you broke the rules when you say something they don’t like
it just tells us that reddits using ai MODERATION to automatically apply the warning/ban without review.
Why do you even bother?
That great!
I hope reddit all the luck. Over there. Where I wont be interacting with anymore. Its just not worth it.
I spent a year not using reddit anymore after I discovered Lemmy. But the “new” feed on Lemmy is a bit unpopulated so I missed reddit. I dontmiss their Orwellian attitudes and Authoritarianism. That I still grapple with. But I like to read the fiction subreddits where people write short stories. That is the only reason I went back. But I frequently switch between reddit and Lemmy all the time now. It is a love hate relationship with reddit, though.
Curious, which subreddit banned you?
No subreddit banned me. The bots on reddit set by the admins detected a breach of ToS. I apparently promoted violence with what I commented. But it was a joke and I explained it to them so they lifted it. I was technically in the wrong.
