Here’s what makes this whole thing absurd

The ban in question was a 3-day ban from r/youll_be_banned which is a subreddit where getting banned is literally part of its punchline. You make a post, you get banned if the mods are in a bad mood, and that’s just the joke

Why on earth would I try to circumvent such a short ban, from that subreddit of all subreddits?

Still, it doesn’t change that I’ve been accused by the automated system, even for something that I did not do

Right after I got that message about the sitewide ban, I panicked and sent a half-baked appeal explaining that I had zero intent. Of course that appeal got rejected because I didn’t explain the context above. You could tell from the wording itself that I was still experiencing the shock of it all

And, well there is a page allowing me to send my second appeal. I’m just scared of it getting rejected again somehow

I think in the meantime, I’m just gonna stop shouting into the void and reach out here to you guys, just to talk it over. It’s been 11 days since the ban, and I’ve been a little depressed about it

Does anyone want to share their experiences?
