Oh, no, I didn’t give a shit, I burned through Reddit accounts like nobody’s business. The fact that the admin was so triggered as to sit there, banning and unbanning me, just to spam me with notifications, was the greatest possible reward I could have ever asked for.
First thing I did on the new account was report the exact same post. Didn’t get banned.
Quite odd behavior, this is not a moderator but an administrator on the site wide?
Yeah, moderators can’t do sitewide bans, only Reddit administrators (employees) can do it.
