My 16yo account was permanently suspended for "being created to circumvent a subreddit ban". I'm not a time traveller so I'm not sure how that's possible.
Now any new account I create is seen as an attempt to circumvent my suspension so I'm permanently blocked from creating an account.
I did appeal and asked how a 16yo account could have possibly been created to get round a subreddit ban. It was denied.
I've created 3 accounts since and each time it gets banned after a few hours/days by some automated admin process.
I COULD sign up via VPN but I really can't be arsed now. I fucking hate that site and the admins are draconian. 16 YEARS I never caused a bloody ripple then some idiotic administration fuck up* means I get locked out and buggered by a spiked dragon dildo.
*I have a 'conspiracy theory' it has something to do with a mod on 2westerneurope4u - he banned me from the sub and claims to have direct comms with the admins (similar to awkwardtheturtle). It was 2 days after he banned me my admin/site ban happened.
TLDR: Reddit are cunts.
How do they keep catching your new accounts? Are you using a VPN or masking your e-mail or both?
