For the first time today, I came very close to deleting my Reddit account.

If I'm not allowed to appeal a mod decision without getting suspended for three days for harassment (before you ask, I appealed, and the decision was somehow upheld), then it's only a matter of time before I get banned for life, anyway. So what's the point of trying?

What's the point of doing anything?

@TryingtoLava Yep. It's time for an adjustment at the top.

@LordShadowfire I've never been a reddit member, but from occasional browsing, I've come to the conclusion that subreddits almost always evolve to become echo chambers. So if the mods guess that a member might have different opinions than the mod group, that member gets banned on one excuse or another. The only fix would be to form your own sub and become your own mod, but that would be way way too exhausting. And you'd probably find yourself invaded by trolls who would take over your sub unless you banned them.

And, not to excuse the mods who banned you guys, but they probably have some repeat trolls who are always making new accounts and trying to get back in and troll some more, so banning becomes an easy reflex. Social media is fundamentally flawed

How very strange. I am able to maintain an account there without being suspended, save for the time I tried to continue participating in t/bobsburgers after you were banned for life.

@CorvusBlackthorne Yeah, yeah. I'm starting to regret bringing you to life.
