MODERATORS
Yeah that’s what I was doing on Reddit. I assumed it would be like any other platform building from scratch. I did one post a day third day got banned lol. Hopefully this site doesn’t ban people for posting 5 hours later or whatever.
I think Reddit is an exception for that. A lot of people have been banned for the weirdest reasons. I get the feeling that they don't want to pay people to moderate at the admin level, and so they let their automated systems run amok. Since people and bots continue to make new accounts, this isn't a big deal for them (yet)
They banned me 2 days ago. I didn’t do anything wrong. I guess being active made me seem like a bot. They’re strict and it’s annoying. I appealed but I doubt I’ll ever get my account or community back.
