No warning, not even a "Don't do it again email" - I had a work account, that was logged in on my works laptop, I made a comment critical of Netanyahu, and the Gaza genocide, which got that account banned from /pics. This was months ago, then I made a comment on pics, on my main account. That's it, gone, banned.

I even have another spare account, from 2008, logged in to that, that's banned too. FFS!

No luck on appeals, so I guess no more reddit, ever again. Anyone managed to get around this?

Yea, I lost my 15 year old account last year. Started a new one and it just wasn't the same. Left a few months ago for here, still not the same, but better then reddit.

There is something going on there and I suspect that there is a real effort underway to tie peoples identity to a reddit account. They want a real email or a phone number and if you are denying them this and protective of your data they are getting not a lot from you. They read your private messages and are basically data mining the hell out of everything. Culling long time members seems to be a thing and for specious or no real reason? I would like to think that me blocking all ads and blocking my IP and using an anonymous email annoyed them. I supported Palestine and reminded people about the death of Rachel Corrie so that probably helped. Karma was good 17,000 and 39000 post and comment so I have only two words for Reddit Admins..and they are See Ya!

I regularly purged my comment and post history and before I deleted it I overwrote my comment history with fuck u/spez then deleted and deleted my account.

Nice my version of redact is no longer supported. I am going to age up a new account and hopefully figure out how to get un suspended so I can wipe the account clean and leave them with nothing
