“If you raise the fucking hot dog, I will kill you. Figure it out.”
In quotes and attributed, in a conversation about the Costco hot dog. But apparently I’m threatening violence. Lol
I have two accounts, with lots of karma, inexplicably shadowbanned. All I do is post in like 3 niche interest tech/fandom subs, zero politics or hostility.
The appeals page is like a black hole. No explanation, no process, no results.
I don’t even know anymore.
Mods there can ban if they dont agree eith your sports team, that shit is going downhill
CEOs being CEOs… Violent as ever 🤣
I think it’s justified in this case. Unless you want more expensive hot dogs.
Reddit permanently banned me for saying a person got “burned” when Trump did not pay the person. It was violent rhetoric, they said.
You know who didn’t use violent rhetoric? The scorpion, from the parable of the scorpion and the frog. Truly a paragon of common decency.
Leave Reddit.
How many people get banned for quoting Trump’s violent rhetoric?
Moderated by AI for your
safetycompliance.Nothing makes sense at reddit.
It was a bot that automatically banned you
So like 99% of the rest of Reddit
Oh, that makes it so much better…
There are absolutely bots doing this sort of thing. Years ago when I still had an account there I got flagged for “promoting suicide” because I explained that a stalemate in a chess game can happen because “the king is not allowed to commit suicide”
Good thing they can blame bots for this shit.
Throws up hands “It was the bots, nothing bad we did.” Just like when AI fucks things up and companies won’t take responsibility. Because we didn’t do anything bad 🤷
Also a bot that will ignore the explanation and reject the request
That’s more of a script than a bot. Basically: if request, then reject.
Basically: if request, then reject.
Sounds like they were inspired by U.S. health insurance companies.
Bots are just fancy scripts
It probably is, the issue is that the appeal process doesn’t work and is seemingly also run by bots.
end of the day these big tech companies need us in ways we don’t need them
Yep. Reddit couldn’t possibly exist without slave labor.
Yeah, I got a 7-day ban for saying Luigi Mangione probably shouldn’t go to prison for what he did because they said I was inciting violence. They lifted it on appeal, but not before hitting me with a perma-ban for some bullshit about circumventing the ban with other accounts (I’ve had exactly one account on reddit in the ~14 years I’ve been there), so I decided they were getting a bit too fashy for my taste and started looking for greener pastures.
I got a warning for saying a fictional Nazi “should be l****ed”
Not “luigied” literally I put the asterisks in and the bot still got it. They’re so paranoid and scared lol
I don’t know the context but: Could have been “uigi” but could have also been “ynch”.
Which is even more of an American pastime
Yeeep, that shit’s crazy. Why we ever let corporations control our means of interacting with each other online I’ll never know, but now it’s all going to shit as it was always meant to so they can squeeze even more money out of us. Fuck 'em.
See, your mistake was not having hundreds of disposable accounts. 🤣
Clearly. :P
Reddit loves Nazis.
I got a warning for saying “I’m gonna put some dirt in your eye” in response to someone saying Spider-Man 3 was bad. 😂 I made an appeal and it was rescinded almost immediately, but still.
Lmao. And they say comedy is dead.
“CEO” and “kill” going in the same sentence is ungood.
Doubleplusungood, even
Oh no, not doubleplusnogood!
These reddit ban appeals are just power trips for the mods. do not engage with this feature.
I just used it to tell them to get fucked.
Lol I did as well.
“ermm actually had you apologized I would have undone the ban”
fuck you
Reminds me when I submitted an appeal to Imgur.
My post got taken down for racism.
I send an appeal that it was, in fact, not racism and if it is to please show me where the racism is.
“Thank you for contacting us. Your post got removed because of racism because it had racism in it.”
Told them to go fuck them selves.
Never got an answer.
I got a temporary ban once for racism - for a comment I made about a nonexistent race.
Bloody Cardys can’t be trusted.
Fucking Flaxans, we don’t need their kind round here.
Settle down Miles.
Your comments about “bulbheads” regarding the Xenomorph species is not appreciated.
You can tell that it’s an aspen tree because of the way it is
People really need to get the fuck off of reddit.
Redditors are going to end up on [email protected]
I generally surf Lemmy first for a while, and then scroll reddit because there is simply more content. I have been participating less and less on Reddit and trying to participate on Lemmy more. But for things like episode discussions for various TV shows, reddit is really the only game right now and I do like trading those.
Eventually reddit will most likely completely leave my rotation, because they are really trying to make it as shitty as possible.
We’re coming here, but slowly. We each have our tipping point and for many who just scroll mindlessly it’s not any worse than insta/tiktok/Facebook. The commenter crowd has largely moved over.
That’s a good point different people use it in different ways.
Mods are power tripping everywhere.
