“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
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
How many people get banned for quoting Trump’s violent rhetoric?
I was banned 3 days for “hate speech” because I said the IDF was committing horrible crimes and killing children.
I was banned 7 days for violence (on a shit-posting sub) for saying Bonhomme should go to Washington DC and sort out 47. Bonhomme is the mascot of Québec Winter Carnival. He is a snowman. For context, the original shit-post had a “photo” of 47 gleefully eyeing a poster of Bonhomme. I did try to appeal this because…really? I was unable to even submit an appeal. I guess the US must be absolutely terrified of pretend snowmen from Québec.
I was permanently banned for violence because I spoke against 47 and his underlings calling for the annexation of Canada. The war-mongers are allowed to threaten their peaceful neighbour 🇨🇦 (and others) with economic ruin and invasion, but a citizen of 🇨🇦 isn’t permitted to speak against this threat?
I was a premium member but I had put a pause on the membership a couple months back when we began boycotting the US. I didn’t even try to appeal the perma-ban. I cancelled my membership/account and uninstalled the app.
I got a three day ban for saying that Deadpool would do something to Tim Gunn. Deadpool the fictional character and Tim Gunn, the very real fashion chair (at the time) of Parsons School of Design. I forget what, possibly kidnap him to protect him from something. IDK, whatever it was was impossible and not in any way inciting violence.
Sir, this is lemmy
…in a reddit community…
5th dumb comment I’ve seen from lemm.ee today
Is this a dedicated instance for fresh reddit migrnts or something?
actually, yes. It’s what gets recommended to redditfugees to avoid dumping them all in .world
Now try this: mass edit all of your comments to be that post and watch how quickly you get banned from every subreddit, no appeal.
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.
It was a bot that automatically banned you
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”
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.
Bots are just fancy scripts
Basically: if request, then reject.
Sounds like they were inspired by U.S. health insurance companies.
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.
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 🤷
Oh, that makes it so much better…
So like 99% of the rest of Reddit
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.
Some people appealed for 6months before they got a response.
Appealing too many temp bans (all unfounded) got me perma banned.
Corpo bootlickers, kicking all humans off their platform until they remaining are indistinguishable from the growing see of bots.
It’s clear they only want people just browsing and not logged in anymore. All for the advertisement money
I literally don’t know why I’m shadowbanned though, I didn’t do anything even adjacently controversial!
I guess I just talk like a bot? Not that they ban those, ha…
But yeah that’s what gets me, if there was some stated reason for a shadowban or permanent I’d be understanding, but zero feedback? Really?
Shadowbans are the cowards way of dealing with unwanted users — I understand why they do it, but it happens to way too many normal posters.
It’s okay for zapping low-effort bots, but there should always be a way for humans to deal with it…
I visited the shadowban subs, which lets you comment and apparently normal users are getting dusted for very little reason. If that sub is getting such a frequent postings, it’s a red flag.
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.
Settle down Miles.
Good thing he died in a nuke in SGA episode
Fucking Flaxans, we don’t need their kind round here.
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
I got banned for 1 week from Reddit because I had the courage to say that foreigners in UK destroying a car just so should be put into jail with water and bread alone, and send back home thereafter. Reason for the ban: spreading hate. Sorry, I cannot appreciate people coming into a country, rumbling on the streets and destroying cars because they cannot keep themselves under control, and even less so that they can enjoy the time in a prison with TV, a gym and whatever. A prison should not be a hotel, but Reddit mods think different - probably as long as they are not affected themselves, pure hypocrites.
you sound like an unpleasant person, good riddance
It seems you are happy when your property and those of others is destroyed. Just give me your address. I come by, will ask you politely to stay away and destroy your stuff. No penalty for me, to be clear.
No, but I also don’t derive pleasure from fantasizing about torture and double punishment.
Do you want provide a cozy place and benefits for someone who is destroying others property, which the person may have worked for a long time, because the destroying person was frustrated? You know what happens to dogs which you give cookies when they have bitten somebody?
It’s because they’ve given an LLM the ability to ban for “promoting or threatning violence”, and it’s terrible. It basically sees two “bad” words on one line and send out a ban. It seems like an attempt at making people use words like “unalive” and things like that.
Interestingly it doesn’t work if you spread it across more than one line(the haiku and similar bots don’t get banned after quoting comments that get banned).
Explains why I got permabanned for quoting a fictional character that wanted to kill someone, jfc
I just got permanently banned from Reddit at the end of a 2 day ban. I haven’t even posted or commented anything yet. Reddit is dead.
I have been hearing people were getting perms banned as soon as their temp bans were lifted.
I would bet $10,000 that you get a notification saying “we’ve reviewed your appeal and decided the ban will stay in place”
Unapologetic enshittification is how the second quarter of this century will begrudgingly be remembered.

Doubleplusungood, even
Oh no, not doubleplusnogood!
Won’t somebody please think of the advertisers??
I can’t be the only one thinking of a lot of Reddit’s mods as Jimmy Wichard from King of the Hill, can I?
