I was randomly banned without warning. I was posting and next thing I know, I had a message saying I’ve been suspended permentaly and to check my inbox. It was a generic message with “repeatedly violating multiple rules of conduct” and I was so confused. I followed their directions by checking my other account and i got nothing in it until hours later when I got that exact same message. Both appeals were denied. I’ve also contacted support but I hear they never respond back or it can take 2-3 months.

Has anyone been able to get their perm suspension uplifted or just create a new account and not get banned for ban evasion? How did you do it?

I’ve only been banned by device and email because my husband and son didn’t get banned. We all share the same wi fi.

    oh yea they are pretty arbitrary on ban appeals, some had success some dont. like if you had ban evasion, or multi-account botting, its probably not going to get approved. and recently the reasons for many bans is pretty nebelous, now they dont tell the infraction of the ban, that way its so vague they can interpret it as, “oh you did this here and here that banned you”.

    recently a comment was removed from a niche sub from my account by a mod, and i was instantly shadowbanned.

      Wait, many users are being banned right now?

      I never ban evaded and I don’t know how I would multi bot. Reddit says we can have more than one account just as long as we don’t break the rules. I followed what their policy said. They even say make a new account if you don’t like your username but I’m afraid their bot will just ban you for posting in the same subreddits you did with your other account or if you get baned, your posts on your older account could show up as a ban evasion if one of the mods comes across your older post. I’m speculating this is how I was banned.

      I guess shreddit all your comments first before moving onto a new account but what if reddit sees that as you trying to get around the rules and stuff when they said you would need to make a new account if you want to change your username.
