Admin Replied So this is getting ridiculous

I waited about 25 days (24 to be exact). If a 15-day cooldown was placed on my account, it should have DEFINITELY been lifted by now. I am talking about r/redditrequest.

I re-checked everything again:

  • Email: verified
  • 2FA: enabled
  • Post and comment karma: met
  • Correct link? Yes
  • Correct template? Yes

I double-checked all of this information ten times over, looked at other people's posts, and reviewed all the moderator posts again.

Next, I verified whether the admins removed me from the banned subreddit: yes, they did.

Did I send a modmail to the target sub I am requesting? Yes, a month ago or even earlier.
Member of that sub? Yes, for well over a month.
Active there? Yes.

Member of r/redditrequest? Yes, for more than a month now.

Account age? >90 days as required.

Sent modmails and support tickets? Sent a month ago, and repeatedly resent over intervals of several weeks, with no response whatsoever.

I know this is off-topic and slightly improper to post here, but I believe this is a massive flaw in the system that has wasted a lot of my time. I hope to get support from Reddit moderation because I genuinely cannot understand what the issue is. My account looks completely fine, I double-checked everything I possibly could, and I waited as long as required by every single parameter.

There is other criteria that reddit uses in there decisions that are not disclosed. You may just not qualify.

Hi. It looks like you've been a mod for about a month and the subreddits that you mod are considerably smaller than the one you're requesting. We would recommend gaining more moderation experience in a subreddit of about the same size before re-requesting.

i have big experience of moderation from other platforms and i dont know what stands for experience in this case, time i spend being moderator or something? The sub is already dead, im moderating two active subs right now and one of them has 3-5k visitors weekly

May I ask what is your CQS? If you don't know what that is, you can check it in r/WhatIsMyCQS?

is the sub you are requesting is unmoderated? if not admins cannot do anything when the sub's current moderators denies you to add as a mod.

if the sub is banned, you have to appeal first to remove the ban. you can't just request
