Erego, fuck the majority of reddit mods. I was a redditor for nearly 12 years, and in that span of time? I met a shockingly few amount of decent mods. "Mistakes happen"? I don't quite think that cuts it. In my experience it was never once a mistake. Off the top of my head: got banned from /r/gamestop for defending children with autism and their parents, /r/justiceserved simply because I had the audacity to comment in /r/JoeRogan when they didn't even know what I said, /r/gamingcirclejerk because I enjoyed my time with hogwarts legacy, /r/Destinythegame because I defended myself from an elitist dogpile because I said I wanted matchmaking, /r/parenting because I gave parenting advice and /r/SteamDeck because I pointed out that the rules said no low effort posts, yet the sub was full of them and upvoted while actual effort posts, like tech support, were downvoted and ignored. Then the mods went a step further, and mass reported me for harassment because I presented mountains of evidence I gathered, showing they don't properly do their jobs, which then got me completely banned from reddit. I've seen significantly more than that. These are just the ones I can easily remember the details of. I find very hard to believe you, a mod, were a victim of mod abuse. Statistically, you could easily be mistaken for another terrible mod. Obviously I don't know much about you, it just seems very unlikely. No offense. Genuinely.
Well. There is a boatload to unpack here but I dont have that much time so let me try to make it brief:
By „Mistakes happen“ I meant that I can see that people can make mistakes, even as mods, but they need to own up to them, which they rarely do.
As a general rule, I believe that you have experienced this and are telling the truth about your experience because that is your reality and in stark opposition to you, I dont accuse others of being not genuine.
What I do see is that you‘re lacking restraint for respectful conversation, which is likely one of the reason people ban you. They might also ne assholes and not listen to reason, and salty, and terminally online.
But the moral of this interaction for you should be to show some restraint and basic respect towards others. That might help you get along in life better.
Feel free to answer any way you like but know that I will block any disrespectful people immediately.
Have a good one.
I'm not being disrespectful. I literally said "no offense". This is just how I always talk. You don't have to like it, but don't accuse me of being disrespectful when I'm literally just talking. I gave the reasons for those bans, none were because of how I spoke. And by "significantly more" I've seen the same thing happen to many, many other users. I have no issues communicating with anyone, but it's cool if you think I do. But I'm standing by what I said. Have a nice day!
Just because you always talk like this doesnt make it okay.
Ok; have a nice day!
