  • It was my bad, but an honest mistake. I had two accounts. there were two subreddits: r/meme and r/memes. One doesn’t want you to put the same meme on both (technically says something like: if you post somewhere else don’t post the same thing here), at least a few months ago that is what the rules were. I am new to making memes so I made one on Canva to see if it would be generally accepted by the community and whether my ideas/jokes were even funny. I posted on one of them idk I cannot remember which. And forgot about that rule, which is debatably absurd to begin with but that isn’t the absurd reason. (They did give me a 28 day ban for this, which is the absolute only thing I have ever done wrong on Reddit after a several years old account. While karma doesn’t mean anything it still took effort to get it, lol, not that it matters)

    They banned me from one, and I was continuing to post on the other subreddit. Mind you I am now on my other account, because I am a little ticked off (not because I was temp banned from the subreddit,but that a rule I didn’t think of, and a little ridiculous is there, no warning, nothing)

    Long story short, a few weeks later on that alternative account, I forgot about the whole thing, and didn’t realize I commented on the wrong subreddit–the one I was banned on the other account on. This is how I accidentally circumvented a ban and got perma banned on only my alt account, temp banned on the other for a week. After that I deleted all my accounts (I had 5, the reason was not to break rules or anything bad rather one was for art, one for music, one for general social stuff etc)

    Better on Lemmy anyway.
