Used to get a ban from r/twoxchromosomes for it too Only the most pathetic subreddits blanket ban posters of another sub. I don't see anyone blocking users who post on the brigading sub called againsthatesubreddits

I got banned from that sub for participating in tumblrinaction.

I should set up a bot to ban /r/offmychest and /r/twoxchromosomes posters from my useless subreddit with like 3 posts. Just to see how much hate mail I got out of it

You don't get notified of a ban unless you've posted there before, so not much.
4 u/lPFreeIy 21 Feb 2019 04:59
Is that a new thing? I remember getting notified for my r/offmychest ban and I don't think I had ever posted there. Never know though, I might've posted there without realizing it
1 u/kkjdroid 21 Feb 2019 10:28
I'm pretty sure it isn't, I was never notified about my ban from there.
1 u/thegillmachine 22 Feb 2019 01:27
I've never posted in 2xtrachromosomes. Wrong plumbing.
1 u/ifknluvsquirrels 21 Feb 2019 13:50
I got banned from that sub for calling someone an asshole mid conversation. That person was a mod

welcome to the website dying via power users just like digg.
36 u/lispychicken 20 Feb 2019 22:33
/r/trueoffmychest was set up just for this reason
12 u/p220 20 Feb 2019 23:33
Nice. Subbed and unsubbed from the leftist garbage sub.
3 u/sadhandjobs 21 Feb 2019 16:38
That sub is basically a karmafarm. Unless “I’m happy that petsmart sells rescue animals now” is something truly mentally and spiritually burdensome.
2 u/lispychicken 21 Feb 2019 17:30
Oh, there's no actual discussion going on there, despite it supposedly being an open discussion sub.
14 u/Euphemism 20 Feb 2019 21:40
When they know they are about to have their noses pushed into the mess the caused, and they know they can't out argue - all that is left is to ban, silence and censor. Tis the reddit(and lefty's everywhere) way.

This is a common occurrence -- many subs (blackpeopletwitter, twoxchromosomes) have automods that watch subs such as kotakuinaction and ban people who comment there.
4 u/KikiYuyu 21 Feb 2019 01:39
I hate it when they do that. Such bs.
4 u/maultify 21 Feb 2019 10:07
This should be against sitewide rules.
2 u/h20net 21 Feb 2019 15:00
I can confirm this is true. I'm also subscribed to the_donald and I am blocked from /r/offmychest without even ever posting/commenting anything. This is unbelievable
1 u/Saxondale [OP] 21 Feb 2019 21:47
It is unbelievable. Despite never posting or commenting on either sub, my ban notification included an accusation that the "content" I supply (what content?) affects all other communities (how?) and my participation interferes with American democracy.

Im not even subscribed to TD and dont even browse TD. I posted a troll post there one time and Im banned from r/offmychest...

To be fair most the donald poster contribute nothing of value anyway. But offmychest is garbage anyway.
11 u/nappiestapparatus 21 Feb 2019 00:30
Have u analyzed actual data? I have a very hard time finding that true just due to the huge number of subscribers and wide definition of "of value" Lol downvote in <1min umad
8 u/Andaeros 21 Feb 2019 01:32
And youd get banned for posting that in TD too haha
3 u/kkjdroid 21 Feb 2019 10:28
Yeah, you can get banned from like a dozen subs at once by saying something anti-Trump in the_donald. They'll ban you for opposing daddy, and a bunch of other subs will ban you because they don't check the content of your post, only the sub it's in.
