Was banned from the sinusitis subreddit for telling (apparently a mod) that a deviated septum absolutely can cause a sinus infection. He got upset and banned me- and even denied my ability to respond to the ban.

Petty? Maybe. But that’s the final straw for me. I just finished deleting all posts and then the account. So sick of arrogant toxic mods.

It can’t. I can create another account and post freely In that community if necessary. This mod blocked me from ever posting there under ANY account under threat of perma-ban Reddit-wide. And without any recourse. I cannot appeal-

All for proving a mod wrong.

There's really no way a reddit mod can know if you are ban evading on an alt. Only way is if you admit to it which they can then report to the admins.

Basically just don't admit to evading a ban and you would have been 100% fine from the mods.

This is all coming from somebody that's modded subreddits with millions of subscribers.

I never admitted to it. Was banned on one account on politics for calling a trumper a little bitch for whining about anti-racism laws- then logged into that sub with an alt a day later and had my account banned.

They clearly have the authority to know when you’re circumventing. I never said a word about it, and didn’t even comment in the same post as my banned account.

Dude, I believe you. Same shit happened to me. That's why I'm on kbin and lemmy. These people have no idea.
