I just got my first Luigi-upvote warning this morning. The best part is the bots don't tell you specifically which post or comment you upvoted to get you auto-flagged, so you have no idea how to navigate the minefield of their automated autoban system, they don't even take the posts down.. they leave them up as some sort of honeypot to flag as many people as possible to ban.

Practically Voldemort.
But you-know-who was an antihero.

They're actually giving away the whole game with this one. They're trying to stop us from doing exactly what needs to be done.
People will just use Mario's bro or whatever instead. They going to ban everything Mario related then? And if they do they'll just use Nintendo's green bro. They going to ban Nintendo from reddit then?
"Green Mario"
"Mario's Brother"
"Enemy of the CEOs"
"The only dude that makes me, a straight man, become gay"
...... okay, perhaps we can leave out the last one.

They should have trophies for getting flagged for breaking their rules without getting banned...
Lu*gi
Shocked to be swept up in this when I never even posted or commented on the account that was banned. It's strange because now I can't even delete the account either.
They're incentivized to keep your contributions public for search indexing and AI training.

Pattern matching “Luigi” is the laziest form of moderation. Reddit works with a firm and has the scale that should be able to contextualize the term if needed in their content models for Violence.
Oh no, I am sure reddit totally won't just say something like Plumber or Green instead of Luigi, making it impossible to keep auto-censoring.

Mama mia
Are they censoring ''player two'' ''green Mario'' ''Waluigi'' or xXBIGLOUIEXx ?
The L word.
Up vs. down in full swing
Is it on certain communities? Posted on prequel memes and got no such warning? Maybe the ban van is coming for me?
This looks like a moderator approval thingie. Normal users probably won't see anything like that.
As far as I know, the word Luigi isn't outright banned, but it does get flagged for review.
I came here to escape Reddit and to say FREE LUIGI!!!
That's how I ended up on Lemmy a few days ago. I was looking for a replacement for Reddit anyway, so the timing was convenient.
