So why the hell does reddit ban people so easily? I got banned from one games sub for something i did not do and could not contact the mods since they also banned me from doing that.
So only option left is to make a new account so i get access to the sub so i can ask for help there since i had problems with the game. Well it worked and i got my problem with the game solved but after that i got permanently banned for ban evasion :/
There was no ill intent with any of my posts and was wrongfully banned the first time. Sure ban evasion is forbidden but it should not be so strictly moderated, concidering that a person can be banned by a mod just because they misunderstand one of ur comments or just generally want to cause harm to some users. There needs to be a way to avoid mods abusing their power and only way to do so is making a new account.
Now there is no way for me to get help with the game if i ever have more problems, or anyway i can help someone else who has problem i know how to solve. That’s unreasonable.
“Ban Evasion” is such a bullshit concept anyway. Do something we don’t like, and try and come back early? You can no longer come here, for life! And since I bet they IP ban, it bans your entire household! I wonder if there are some public places that are Reddit black holes, silently banning any Redditor who goes there because one person once called King Steven a greedy pigboy.
I left Reddit at the time of the great APIcalypse, and there were some businesses whose customer service was so abysmal that the only practical avenue for customer service was on Reddit. Getting a permanent ban for bullshit reasons can have an actual effect if you need support from one of these companies.
It surprises me that they haven’t banned the wrong lawyer at the wrong time to prompt a class action lawsuit over how arbitrary it all is.

Thats the big problem i currently have. The game sub i was part of is the place where i always got help solving my problems quickly and it’s the only place to have any meanigful conversation about the game.
Now i can’t do that anymore and since im perma banned on reddit i can’t take part in health and mental health subs i was part of that were the only place to get support or have conversations regarding all my health problems :/
Unless you pay for a static IP. There’s a decent chance it will change if you reboot it or leave it powered off for a while.
Not sure but I don’t think they IP ban. I think they are using AI on both posting and cookie data. Maybe someone could confirm.
I’ve heard that certain well-connected people have been banned, like wall street people and politicians, but they know who to call at reddit HQ and get themselves unbanned. That’s not the case for the rest of us, and I don’t know about the rest of you but I can’t afford a lawyer.
Banning IP? What is this, 2000? Almost every household has dynamic IP
My IP never changes until I have a power outage. Even then the lease usually gets renewed with the same IP address
My router disconnects from network if no device uses it. I usually have a new IP each time I power on my PC
My brother can still go to Reddit, but they always know it’s me.
