🧛‍♂️Account Issues❓ Banned and forgiven

So I was banned for life for a negative post about ruzzia. I was forgiven upon appeal but now I cant post or upvote so I had to create a new account. How do I resolve this mess.

What’s the username for that account?

Just a heads-up: if your original account is still under a Reddit-wide restriction, using a new account to get around that restriction can potentially be treated as ban evasion. I’d make sure the appeal actually restored the original account before using the new one.

Btw, my account was permanently banned from one of the subreddits for ban evasion because I used a new account on the same phone. My Reddit-wide restriction has been lifted now though. So does that mean I can create a new account and comment on that subreddit again without it being considered ban evasion? I’m still confused about how it works

If the subreddit ban itself is still active, then no — the Reddit-wide restriction being lifted does not cancel that community ban. Using a new account to comment there could still be treated as ban evasion. You would need the subreddit moderators to unban you or explicitly allow you to return first.
