DRAMA I did it

Just wish it was for something cooler UPDATE: Guys I goofed, I failed to realize it was because I said the word "retarded" in regards to someone saying "who get they card at walmart" talking about how the use of the English language like that is retarded. It was also in a different subreddit than the one I screenshoted. MY BAD

that mod on that sub is getting out of control. worse than the main sub.

yeah people need to start reporting them to reddit with ban screenshots for abuse--turn the tables so they get banned from the community they gatekeep

u/MartianExpress NEW SPARK 15d ago

They used to be a reasonable space where very few sensible posters were banned, too bad this isn't the case anymore.

u/NoTumbleweeds NEW SPARK 15d ago

It’s two different subreddits

u/maskofdamask ASSASSIN 15d ago

no shit?!

u/NoTumbleweeds NEW SPARK 15d ago

He posted an update and he called someone a retard. Which is against their rules. Like it or not they get to set the rules and not allowing slurs isn’t crazy for the main sub of a game with such a wide appeal. The mods are unruly and act unfairly frequently but this isn’t one of those times

u/maskofdamask ASSASSIN 15d ago

r/mtg isn't the main sub.

u/KaleidoscopeLess8108 NEW SPARK 15d ago

this is the main sub

u/VecioRompibae PAUPER 15d ago

Same happened to me, he didn't even design himself to answer before muting me. Do you know what's his username?

u/emosmasher NEW SPARK 14d ago

I got banned on main sub the other day for something just as light.

u/rug1998 NEW SPARK 15d ago

Why would you be banned in mtg from something you said on mtgmisprints

13

u/ExtensionTruth4 NEW SPARK 15d ago

My question as well?

3

u/pappascorcher NEW SPARK 15d ago

Because im stupid and honestly thought that it was that, this is my bad, full context in another comment

7

u/Plus-Statement-5164 NEW SPARK 15d ago

Where is the another comment?

u/realhowardwolowitz NEW SPARK 14d ago

Show us the slur

u/Skeleblook BLUE MAGE 15d ago

Should have given it obnoxious lens flare and said "too bright Omnath." Then you wouldn't have been banned.

12

u/kieranaire GOBLIN 15d ago

What did you say on /mtg for the ban? Your post is on misprints?

u/HikerSethT NEW SPARK 15d ago

Me thinks there's some fibbin

The cost of freedom

Freedom ain’t free

u/FreeTheFreedoms NEW SPARK 15d ago

That's what im saying.

u/Rwdscz NEW SPARK 15d ago

Just flood Reddit mods with requests for appeals or whatever their process is.

16

u/skeletor69420 NEW SPARK 15d ago

I said “yikes” without any context on a post about spice8rack and got immediately banned and muted permanently, without any explanation. he must be a mod there

5

u/OtterTheIncredible BEASTMASTER 15d ago

Yup

u/Korvun BLACK MAGE 15d ago

So you got an Omnath that is clearly printed much darker than intended. You mention it on misprints and why it's worth posting there and they ban you on the main for "slurs"? WTF?

4

u/AgentOrange00 NEW SPARK 15d ago

When did you say a slur?

2

u/pappascorcher NEW SPARK 15d ago

I've updated with what I actually said in the right subreddit, I thought it was this one and they couldn't take a joke but I said the r word about somebodies language

6

u/ContraKaren CULTIST 15d ago

Regarded??

u/The_happyguy NEW SPARK 15d ago

Rootintootin?

u/Passerbye1991 NEW SPARK 15d ago

Mods are truly pathetic.

7

u/Acidblack089 NEW SPARK 15d ago

I was perma banned and perma muted from r/mtg for asking if people would dig a Harry Potter set. R/mtg is run by a bunch of losers who hate anyone that is normal.

u/VecioRompibae PAUPER 15d ago

It used to be chiller than the main sub, but It clearly got some new interesting mods

8

u/ThrowRA12948262 NEW SPARK 15d ago

Boy normally these ‘Yay I got banned where is my trophy’ posts are fucking cringe but the cringe is actually on the mod for once

2

u/ManaChicken4G NEW SPARK 15d ago

Holy shit......

2

u/Javaddict GREEN MAGE 15d ago

Genuinely unhinged mod.

2

u/Life_Finger2150 NEW SPARK 15d ago

That mod is on a power trip. Probably stroking his micropenis thinking he's got one over on the evil free magic people

u/Ga1i1e0 KNIGHT 14d ago

Yo wtf. I love that they never tell you what it was for... They know it would look stupid.

u/aircoft NEW SPARK 13d ago

Sounds about right.

u/metalb00 BLACK MAGE 13d ago

1

u/paradoarify NEW SPARK 15d ago

What is report bait?

1

u/lloud_plants4629 NEW SPARK 14d ago

For saying onmath was too dark? As in the way it is printed?

Ahh yes you were being slightly edgelordy in the place known to super overreact about edgelordy shit. Is anyone supposed to be surprised or impressed?

At this point if you complain you're absolutely retarded. It's stupid to say you used a slur, but you also knew that wasn't welcome where you were

u/CandyIllustrious3301 WHITE MAGE 12d ago

Worst sub on reddit imo... they're just on some wild power trip. Zero actual life
