News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
Pissed off a mod on a large sub, got banned for "ban evasion" (I only had 1 account)
Later learned I could get rid of the name I picked when I was 12 by deleting and remaking my account.
months later I accidentally commented in that large sub something totally innocent and got automatically permabanned from ALL of reddit. Appeal got denied instantly too
You need to essentially be nothing but apologetic, even if you don't think you did something wrong. You also need to say what you did wrong, and what you will do to prevent it in the future.
Yeah. "Reddit admin" is the 5th Cluster B personality disorder. Its like when you're young and the guy in class with the most prominent Adam's apple gets put in charge while the teacher takes a piss.
Nice scarf
How do they know? IP address?
No...they're much dirtier than that, apparently, although it's difficult to know for sure. There are many results in Google if you look for methods, and sometimes people in the biz chime in with some good answers, but it's still mostly speculation.
I used the same email haha
I wasn't trying to hide or break rules, I was just changing my name because the old one was cringey ๐
I'm sure they do have loads of ways to detect alts though, it's a pretty interesting field security wise.
Not just IP but cookies that load everytime you log in. When they want to ban you they send you one of these cookies.
