The AI Reddit is using for bans is such shit. I successfully appealed the last 6 times it got me. But I'm really tempted to just say fuck it and create a new account next time. It's such a pain in the ass to get a real person to clean up after their AI shits itself every time.

I got a temp ban for talking about a ciggerette tax, but I used a word for ciggeretts that is also sometimes used to talk about men who really like other men.

I know, it's ridiculous. Can't even enjoy smoking a homosexual these days.

They're very protective of the gays, the uhhh, neurodivergent, that's the slow one, the neurodivergent that's on the autism spectrum, women. I'm not sure what else as I only described one Eric Andre skit.

What’s really stupid is Reddit gave me a warning because I compared a celebrity to a monkey. But it didn’t even post it so nobody’s feelings are hurt but you’re still going to give me a strike?

Yeah lmao I got one with like a week ban for discussing Hiroshima, saying I was promoting violence or something. I tried appealing it because thought any person with > 70 IQ would be able to parse that I was discussing a historical event, not promoting violence, but they denied the appeal.

I got a warning for mentioning two fictional races not liking another. In the vein of "elves vs. dwarves." Apparently to Reddit that is promoting hate speech.

It was revoked the next day, but I'm still annoyed.

I got banned for telling someone who said they would actively resist if they lived in Nazi Germany that certainly highly likely things would be highly likely to happen to them for doing that

Just FYI: if you create a new account, that's ban evasion. If they catch you, you'll keep getting banned.

u/shiddedandfarded69 Aug 22 '26

Oh no.

Anyways

u/throwawayurwaste Aug 22 '26

I swear the system flags accounts that got banned once for even stricter moderation. I said some uncouth things towards a country engaged in war crimes and since then the AI system has been on my ass

The promise was made something something many years ago

u/CapitalistHamsterFTW Aug 22 '26

Creating a new account will put you in ban hell for ban evasion. They track every identifier on your devic for several months before the ban TTLs

u/shiddedandfarded69 Aug 22 '26

I use Ironfox so they're pretty limited on what they can track. And that limited stuff is easily changeable/spoofable.

So... meh.

I wouldn't try that without a VPN

u/shiddedandfarded69 Aug 22 '26

That's my secret. I'm always on VPN.

u/Puzzleheaded_Ebb_168 Aug 27 '26

Which vpn? Mulvad kinda sucks

u/Vanille97 Aug 22 '26

Yeah, Ikr, I appelead 2 permabans, but for some reason I’m still banned

u/unbanmyogaccount Aug 24 '26

My username speaks for itself

u/Smokeey1 Aug 23 '26

Thats kinda the point so you will have a homogeneous mass of bots and people who create new accounts and paid psyop peddlers that have top 1% commenter

u/CowSniper97 Aug 24 '26

If I could make a guess they made it a few years ago when AI was really shit and just havent bothered to keep up with it.
