    Reddit banned my account for “Abusing the report button”, and still won’t unban it. I still miss reddit because Lemmy doesn’t have enough interest specific forums.

    I need to talk to someone about Mortal Kombat and Sonic!

      They banned me for saying child molesters deserved to die. Meanwhile there’s all kinds of other threads with people saying the same shit about other way less bad demographics and nothing happens to them… Hmmmmmm.

        My abuse of the report button, by the way, was because I kept reporting people for being outright malicious towards religious users. And since one’s belief system is protected class as far as discrimination goes, I thought I was doing the right thing. And when I tried to explain this, my appeal was ignored. I still miss it sometimes because there are a lot of groups that just haven’t been established on this platform yet. Sure we have a gaming channel, but we don’t have an in-depth discussion for Mortal Kombat or sonic the hedgehog. And with the new Mortal Kombat coming out in september, oh damn do I miss the old joint sometimes. Oh well, has Reddit gets worse and worse it’ll eventually be left in the dust. It’s not like I was banned for doing anything wrong. Just trying to uphold the terms of service when the website would not.

          My appeal was ignored as well. I even gave them an example of a thread with dozens of comments that were just like mine but against a corporate executive asking what the difference was and they still just gave me the canned response. The only conclusion I can draw from that is the Reddit admins must want to create a safe space for child molesters specifically.

      Pro tip, use Tor and a different Email and you can create a new account without ban evasion detection kicking in. Make sure you copy the link for email verification and open it in Tor not in the normal browser.
