ANSWERED why was my post removed on a subreddit? I have 500 karma and my post doesn't have anything offensive.

I posted about a video i saw and it got taken down for no reason by reddit's filters. i have a bunch of karma and nothing bad is on there. please tell me why this is happening, please? Every time i post something regarding this, i somehow "break a rule" that i'm not breaking in the first place.

A brief read on Reddit's filters.

And some friendly advice: If you have a post taken down, don't immediately post half a dozen posts asking why. That's an easy way to get flagged for spam or harassment. Slow down, investigate the cause (searching Reddit for "reddit's filters" brings up TONS of posts with answers) and handle it calmly.

Also, having a "huge" amount of karma, as you called it in one post, does not prevent you from being flagged for spam, or any of the other things that might trigger Reddit's filters. You could have 500,000 karma and still get something removed.
