I’m a lurker. I don’t post on facebook or reddit or anywhere. Today I randomly got a message from reddit that my account was permanently banned for apparent repeated violations of their site wide rules. I have the ReVanced app on my phone that blocks ads on reddit just so those scumbags can’t profit off me lurking, but it’s the only reason I could fathom that is why I’ve been banned. Anyway I just wanted to vent so thanks for reading this if you did. Reddit fucking sucks.

    When a site makes me do that I use one of my domains with a certain four letter word in it beginning with F. I also have a very snarky hotmail account that every year or so I have to take over someones reddit account because they decided to use it. I guess if they force verification that will stop.

      four.com?

      That’s very funny.

      Whenever I get prompted for an unverified email address, for example to use wifi in a hotel, I always put x@x.com. Actually, come to think of it, x.com is the new twitter. I have been doing that for many years and never made the connection until now.
