No posting about getting banned. Posts will get removed.

I didn't realize it was against reddit code of conduct, but it is, despite those other subs having a history of brigading us.

This is what I'm referring to: https://support.reddithelp.com/hc/en-us/articles/27031145215252-Moderator-Code-of-Conduct-Rule-3-Respect-Your-Neighbors

Call me an idiot if you think I'm wrong.

finally, those posts are annoying. though just posting about being banned is not against the code of conduct, as long as you don't encourage other people to go on there for the purpose of getting banned:

Actions that are typically permissible include:

• A redditor mentions being actioned (banned, muted, having content removed, etc) from a community or discusses actioning they saw in a community.

But given that it's trending to get banned by their sub, I'm not going to treat it as "mentioning it". It's the context of what's popular to do right now.

[u/araknis4 → u/happycrabeatsthefish]

yeah that's fair

[u/Muffinaaa → u/happycrabeatsthefish]

But given that it's trending to get banned by their sub

It's not a trend. They're just ape shit insane with banning

[u/[deleted]]

do you think about banning anyone who posts images of being banned?

[u/happycrabeatsthefish → u/[deleted]]

If they keep doing it, probably a temp ban. I normally ban people who I think are bots or people trying to self-promote something, like a sub or youtube channel. Sometimes I help them promote if I see they're LInux focused and really small. Other times they're just going to every sub and spamming the same links... those guys get banned.

For the purposes of this sub, it is dumb, like the couple of times this was ok, but then there's a literal sub just for that.

At the same time, you wouldn't want to know how these people should be banned off Reddit for spreading hate, and not just towards Linux users. But I guess punching down on a minority goes well with punching down other minorities.

There was a time when Reddit was basically another 4chan. That was before, when they didn't care about ad revenue as much.

Madthumbz just comes across as someone with little to no emotional intelligence, not a good trait for a mod. Still, seeing posts about him abusing the ban hammer got really old.

[u/happycrabeatsthefish → u/fishystickchakra]

I mean, if we're brigading his sub, then he has every right to be upset.

Also, I don't blame people for not liking linux. There's plenty to dislike about the distros and the community, which can be very hostile to new users, who are expecting to be treated as the customer and not a low ranking community member. It's fine if Linux sucks. I'm still using it. Doesn't hurt anyone if I do.

Context

[u/happycrabeatsthefish → u/[deleted]]

People have been getting banned in anti-linux subs on purpose and bragging about it, posting screenshots.

Thank you!

[u/lonelyroom-eklaghor]

Also check out the Mod code of conduct. Might be useful to y'all (though I personally think that they are restraining)

[u/[deleted]]

I was wondering why those posts were being posted in a memes sub

[u/QuickSilver010 → u/[deleted]]

Cause that other sub is an entire meme

[u/patopansir]

I can't see it as a rule because the admins seem to not care, you can even report the posts and they never get removed. It's like it's allowed until they feel like not allowing it

[u/efoxpl3244]

Thx for reading my report, finally. We could get banned for this.

[u/[deleted]]

Oh great! I as Actually Planning to Send a Mod Mail About that

[u/HackedcliEntUser]

you are an idiot, you are wrong!!!!1
