I’m surprised they let me play it as a banned user.

I hear they disable/delete your account but they let me keep mine. “Oh we will let you log in but you can no longer post. Oh we will let you vote still and play this nice little game for April Fools in r/field. Oh we will let you have a new account for a half hour to modmail the admins. Oh we will let you save posts and delete your own comments.”

My reddit experience right now.

You’re late to the party, the reddit admins fixed that error with their bot when they got many complaints and users using Luigi Mario character as a meme. One if the admins announced it in their post.

I will never use smart technology. I prefer analogue technology. Imagine using a subscription in your home for lights and TV and AC and heat and appliances and then boom, they decide to terminate your subscription and now your home is inaccessible for habitat.

So you’re saying your account doesn’t get banned until you post and bam, banned.

Pointless having a unbanned reddit account if you can’t post.

Yep, anyone can be homeless.

If you sell your house and are between houses now, technically you are homeless but you’re privileged you can live in a hotel or rent a storage unit and couch surf or if you have a friend or family member to stay with. If you have a job, you can still afford shelter and not lose everything. This was my family when my brother was a baby and we just stay with a friend for 2 months until we moved into our new house. Both of my parents had jobs. We were privileged.

If you’re evicted because you lost your job or got sick so you were unable to afford to pay your rent. Not all landlords give you a grace period to get behind in rent when something out of your control happened. These people also lose everything if they had no friends or family to help out. If they live paycheck to paycheck, they couldn’t save money. Many Americans are one paycheck away from homelessness. It just means if they get sick or get into an accident or lose their job, they’re screwed.

We no longer own our products. We just pay to use it until they decide you can no longer use their service. What happens if they mysteriously shut down your account without warning?

That is what happened to a guy and he had to get court involved and then he found out his account was flagged for CP by their algorithm because he had a video of his 19 year old ex. False bans do happen. I couldn’t find that story again sadly to share.

Also, make sure you always have back up turned off or have one drive not installed on your phone. If you’re a parent, be careful what photos you take of your children because if those get backed up to cloud, their AI will kill your account because it can’t tell between CP and normal family photos.

I actually want to own our products than make accounts to use.

Being perm banned without warning and no reason given. Just happened random. So I started to look for an alternative.

I once got a warning for site rule 4 when I told a fetishist she shouldn’t be in a subreddit for minors regarding that fetish. Somehow that was suggestion sexual exploitation of minors. I suspect that user reported my comment out of retaliation to try and kick me off reddit. I didn’t appeal it because I figured i would just avoid that topic in the future and it was only a warning, not a perm ban or suspension.

Shoot, we have a proxy IP and I have no idea how to not have one. Plus my husband uses avg that blocks websites tracking him. He isn’t banned on reddit but he’s never posted anything. Only read.

No idea, it was random. I even looked through my comments to see any deleted content from reddit. I guess I was site wide banned for saying a killer is less dangerous if he only kills child predators. It was to an article about a man killing his cell mate for sexually abusing a kid. People in the comments praised him for it but other users had to remind them he is in prison for killing other people. I said he would be less dangerous if he had only killed child predators. That got me lot of upvotes. I couldn’t find this comment of mine so I assumed reddit removed it.

I also said another time how a kid had to die for the mom to finally get help from the state. The kid froze to death when the mom was homeless with her kids living in the car. Then the state of Michigan grants her a house when that should have happened before one of her kids froze to death. Obviously redditers knew what I meant because they upvoted it. I wasn’t citing violence for kids to die for parents to get assistance from the state. Yet reddit never alerted me so I could appeal it. There is nothing in my messages about what content of mine violated their sitewide rules which makes me think it was done by AI than by a human.

I guess this was citing violence against a group of people. :/

I remember this. I never knew what it was for.

I have that same message in both accounts. i even reached out to reddit support for more information when my appeal was denied for both accounts. Still awaiting to hear back.

I got mysteriously site wide banned without any warning. Only been warned once on the platform and never been suspended. I believed I was following the reddit TOS and guidelines but was banned for "violating “multiple rules.”

I have never been alerted about it by reddit ever what content of mine violated their site wide rules. I hope the admins here are more fair and actually respond to requests than using AI and algorithm and ignoring requests about wrongful suspension.

Did reddit team just start to hand out banhammers to accounts randomly? My alt was banned and then my main one was banned hours later. It was just a generic message not really telling me what content of mine violated their site wide rules.
