I Got permanently banned from a subreddit I liked ,and was a long time member of because I accidentally reposted something that was already posted on there before. I tried to ask the mods about the perma ban but got no response

    Let me guess, probably /r/StarTrek or /r/conspiracy. The only two subreddits I’ve ever got banned at and both for strange reasons.

    On StarTrek, for pointing out how Star Trek Discovery is bad (without using swearing) and the mods are overreacting by being ban happy on everyone who says so (as I had seen the other subreddit before, where all the banned people complained about the original subreddit), which resulted in me getting banned and into a conversation with a drunk moderato who thought this is funny, how he can abuse his moderator power to permanent ban me. He talked like a 10 years old with aneurysm, when I pointed out his hypocrisy.

    On conspiracy, for commenting a conspiracy that was in no way against any rule or TOS. So I guess I was right, too bad I forgot what it was as it was meaningless, tiny. I just remember how hilarious it was suddenly getting banned there by only ever commenting a conspiracy once. On a later thought this was good as I noticed how crap the subreddit was/is.

      Yeah, Reddit mods suck

      I got banned from r/armoredcore, it’s one of the niche subreddits that I was a long time member of, liked the subreddit and its community. And I got permanently banned from that subreddit because of reposting something that I didn’t know that I was reposting

      As someone who watched four seasons of Discovery and is a diehard and lifelong trek fan, I can I can safely confirm your opinion. Discovery is in fact bad. The really disappointing part is that it’s almost good. It’s so close. The production value and visual effects are insanely good. The acting isn’t even bad. But oof, that writing is just atrocious, and the plots never go really where they need to. It just keeps missing the brass ring on every try. What a letdown.
