Btw the german text reads “This account has been suspended”, with buttons to log in and sign up
I guess their bot detection must have figured out that you’re a human.
This happened to me twice, but it was twitter (long before Musk took over). They held my account hostage in exchange to my phone number - which I refused to give them.
Despite the ban, their system still sent me their annoying newsletter. It also took me 3 support tickets to get my account deleted and stop receiv8ng emails.
This has happened to me on several apps when I signed up while using a (paid) VPN
This happened to me when I signed up again to report a fraudster in my local area’s subreddit. I was instantly shaddowbanned, without any messages or warnings sent to me. I was unable to post or up/down vote. I contacted their ‘support’ over it and just got all my messages ignored, or maybe they weren’t even received.
This is the exact problem I’m having, with a suspension and subreddit ban on top of that (the subreddit that I created was also banned)
Reddit detects if your previous account was banned and then bans your new account as well.
That’s the problem - I’ve never had any banned accounts on Reddit before
I mean, there was a reason. The question is if it was a good reason. And, you know, it’s reddit, sooooo
I find that hard to believe.
