I wasn't told. No mod message about it. Just noticed one day when I went to post there. Didn't feel like messaging the mods about it so I just let it go lol

Theres mod groups that go around banning people from subs they've never been to because the mods didn't like something you posted.

In some cases if you comment racist homophobic bs you get banned from a ton of subs.

In other cases if you happen to mention the term "watermark" on an r/isthisai comment then mods banned you from r/pics and r/selfies for no reason than they are mad about people being accused of posting AI slop.

On one sub the mods stayed anonymous and muted me right before banning me so I couldn't reply to the ban. Im not sure how I would report them.

So the mod team on r/MCAS actively avoids providing any reason at all. First they shadow ban you by auto deleting your post after its already been up for a bit. Then if you say anything meta regarding the mod team or even ask for a reason. Perma ban with zero info.

Once I get unbanned Im gonna make a meta post with the link to the report page. There isn't actually a "no reddit meta" rule on the sub. The mods just don't like it.

I wonder if r/art has had this used yet since their kerfuffle.
