    I got banned today cuz some dude DMd me that he would hang himself, I send him a reddit care message and blocked him, I got banned for three days (they cited the care message) for harrassment, I appealed and was like bro reddit admin, they literally wrote me they would hang themselves how is me using reddit care harrassment and then they permanently banned me. Actually insane. My account had like 60k karma and was 7 years old. Reddit can go to hell.

        I mean Im like 99% sure the dude wrote it ironically but how is it my job to figure that out and how would the reddit admins know. Tbf he wrote he would hang himself in german so they probably didnt even bother google translating it and gave me the three day ban cuz admin had a bad day or whatever. What rlly pisses me off is that me appealing got me perma banned. WTF is up with that.

      I have an account with like 130k karma in only a year with no post or comment karma farming, just pure gains, and I got banned for a stupid reason from a sub, so I tried ban evading and got every account suspended for a week from any kind of engagement. Username very relevant, I fucking hate reddit man. Gotta support literally any site that isn’t reddit to get some kind of competition

      I heard that reporting feature of people “self-harm” is abused alot so reddit now bans people for “Allegedely abusing that button”, i rarely get DMed, because often block people at the same time im reporting them to avoid them contacting me.

        Yeah I get that but like I did not abuse the feature. I rarely got DMd as well the guy was just rlly mad at me cuz I told him that equivocating left and right extremism (in germany) is stupid. Then the guy DMd me to tell me he would find me to punch me in the face and when I wasnt rlly impressed he said something about hanging himself. I didnt even explicitly insult him LOL. Given, I wasnt rlly nice either.
