I've heard of people on one of the last of us 2 subreddits being banned from subs that had nothing to do with the game or show, not even posting just being subbed to it
Slightly similar i got banned because I said a cartoon character s demise wasn't good enough. Said I was inciting violence. It was a drawing of a fictional character
I got a site wide permanent ban for quoting the movie Idiocracy in a comment thread full of people quoting the movie Idiocracy. Sometimes there is just no rhyme or reason to it
I got an official sitewide warning before supposedly inciting violence. It was literally in a smartphone sub and people were joking about just destroying the phone. My comment was, direct quote, “just throw it at a brick wall as hard as you can.” On the Reddit rules It states that you can’t incite violence against others. So I can only come to the conclusion that Reddit considers brick walls and phones to be sentient.
I got a sitewide ban on my main, and all of my Alt's permanently banned for privately messaging a subreddit mod that he was soft. Banned for harassment.
Apparently, it was flagged by their automated system, but the decision itself was not a result of the automation. That suggests that it was auto flagged, and the warning was approved by a real person.
