On the day of the AMA, I edited all my comments to fuck u/spez, and a r/selfawarewolves mod banned me for "spamming".

Then I complained out of spite and got unbanned immediately, but the mod reminded me how "irresponsible it was of me to put the crosshairs on them".

reddit mods cant stand to lose their 'power' kek
its the only thing they have

At this point the amount of "power" they have is equal to the goons of any incompetent cartoon villain.

Rich, coming from a sub called r/selfawarewolves.

That's the only sub I was ever banned from, and I was banned twice. First time the mod said my comment didn't fit my history and asked if it was a joke. I was unbanned when I replied it was, indeed, a joke. Second time was more or less the same thing. Banned for trolling.

I used to comment on many subs, and I would sometimes write something sarcastically without the /s. Just depended on my mood in the moment. I unsubbed because I knew there was no way I wouldn't just break the rule again. Also, I didn't want to read a sub I was banned on because I would forget and likely waste my time composing a comment that would be rejected.

I used to make it a point to get banned from /r/conservative on all my burner accounts.
