for those of you who still pollute yourself with reddit, have you seen it anywhere since? it must have been purpose-built for CTH because I haven't seen a single reddit user mention it happening post-ban, not even a warning

    One time after I was unbanned I just upvoted stuff on the knitting and coronavirus subs and I still got banned by the end of the day for the same reason as before.

      I caught something like eleven consecutive 3-day bans, even though I stopped voting on anything after the second one

        They probably flag comments after report, which takes a while. They finally flag a comment you upvoted, and that's when you get hit again.

        I think they just put a marker on your account the first time you get banned and just renew it as often as they can.

          for me the 3-day bans stopped entirely the week before the subreddit banwave and not even a warning since

            It was similar for me. I had around 8 or 9 consecutive 3-day bans. They started the day after protesters burned the police station down in Minneapolis and ended shortly before the subreddit was banned.

      I got temp-banned for advocating the killing of slave owners after Reddit came out with its explicitly pro-slaveowner stance, so I went on an alt account and did the same thing. They changed my temp ban to a permaban ... on all my accounts, including a couple of dedicated non-political ones.

      I can only imagine I personally upset an admin somewhere by advocating the killing of slave owners lmao
