    My Reddit accounts usually got banned for one dumb reason or another anyhow. I’ll never forget my first and longest account getting the insta axe for saying everyone should punch Nazis.

      My first ban was telling people to remember to get their butts checked for cancer on a post announcing the death of someone (who died from colon cancer).

      We know Redditors don’t read articles, and I was trying to be helpful because that’s how people like Total biscuit died.

      Was perma-banned for “harassment and bullying”.

      I got an account suspended, not banned, full site-wide suspension by the admins literally for saying I didn’t like a comic. No profanity, no racism, no trolling, it was a parent level comment so not snapping back at anyone. It said something along along the lines of (paraphrasing as I don’t remember the exact words) “Has anyone noticed that webcomics are never funny?” That;'s it. Site-wide account suspension .

        I got a sitewide suspension for “report abuse” for reporting disinformation in a post on r/conservative. Reddit supports fascist propaganda.

      I lost mine just before the app shutdown for calling a right wing troll a loser. They said I repeatedly violated rules and perma banned me. All I can figure is I got bombed with reports or the admin handling my appeal is one of them

      Oh well. Now I’m here

        It’s so random, too. One admin/mod might give you a warning (I’m just kidding, warnings are never given, it’s always the harshest punishment) for one thing and another might IP ban you for the same or even a less egregious thing.
