So a while ago I received a ban on r/asmongold subbredit, The ban was unjustified and the reason for it was that I wrote a comment saying that it’s unfair for a streamer to ban people from their chat for simply disagreeing with their opinions.
That post got upvoted into oblivion then Asmongold himself reacted to it on stream (there’s a video on his channel with him literally reading my comment, I can provide proof of what I’m saying).
The next day I was banned from the subbreddit, at first I was confused but then, when I tried to login to my 2017 reddit account I was banned again for ‘‘Ban Evasion’’, then followed with Literally a Ban spree on every single reddit account I had, some of them are old reddit accounts that has nothing to do with r/asmongold, I used them in the past to get tips and guides for games I used to play and forgot they even exist until I received an email saying that I was banned on those accounts…
And this is all bcs one streamer who can’t take criticism and his twitch/reddit mods that are clearly corrupt, And now I’m banned from the entire reddit bcs I disagreed with Asmongold, That’s without even mentioning that he went too far and got himself Suspended from twitch, content creators like this are everything wrong with today’s internet.
So I decided to never Reddit ever again, it’s literally the embodiment of everything wrong with the internet.
Goodbye Reddit. Getting rid of Google itself is my next big end of the year goal.
Edit : Looks like I’m suddenly getting downvoted, Welcome to Lemmy guys.
Edit 2 : I will be moving on from this thread guys, all I wanted is to expose the hypocrisy that is happening on reddit, and btw I have succeeded in evading my ban, I closed my reddit account when I wrote this post. thanks everyone for replying.
Asmongold is not worth anyone’s time, hes an example of what is wrong in society in 2024.
Agreed. Asmongold is a dumbfuck and his editor is a nazi. OP getting banned from his community really isn’t something to be upset about.
Youbgave any info on the editor, obviously I’ve seen how he orders the videos on youtube, bu beyond that?
Just what I’ve heard from other people tbh.
I dont doubt it tbh
That’s because the reddit admin ran by 🫏. That’s why.
Parasocial relationship problems. 🤷
Streamers spend years farming parasocials, asking for subs and donations until they become filthy rich, then proceeds to call everyone who watch their stream regularly a loser… Rest assured brother I do have a life outside of the internet. Stop letting streamers and content creators alter the way you use the internet.
Buddy, you’re saying that you’re going to quit using reddit because a streamer was mean to you, but please tell me how a streamer isn’t altering the way you use the internet.
Reddit is permanently banning A LOT of ‘undesirable’ users right now.
They’re doing us a favor to stop using it, the internet should not be reduced to social media websites and apps, I existed on the internet since 2004, I still have my hotmail email, I witnessed the rise and fall of myspace, so yeah… it’s usually how it goes, when you see a website acting like this just know its about time, it happened with facebook not too long ago and now it’s happening to reddit.
There is a trend on social media in general to shut down certain opinions and words, and to create a space that is “safe” (as in prison being safe).
It literally was like an episode of black mirror, these social media companies can easily IP ban literally anybody on the internet, especially websites like Reddit that have this ‘‘Vote’’ system, were people can decide what’s accepted and what’s not… Reddit is flawed, Gatekeeping every subbreddit with Karma is stupid… All it does is create echo chambers… Just take a look at r/asmongold, it turned from world of warcraft into far right fascism opinions that should’ve stayed in the 20th century…
Welcome to Lemmy. State your political and ideological affiliations and I will point you to a place you maybe won’t get banned.
all that asmongold sub does is complain about women, dei/woke in video games and dumb twitter drama, barely anything about the man himself til just recently. You can’t argue those people man, they’re feral
I think you left the part out where you went back to /asmongold with your 2017 account to complain.
That’s usually the metric that triggers the bots.
Well, it being reddit I wouldn’t count out it being programmed so sloppy that it’s banning for simply logging in.
I’m most surprised that you assumed you wouldn’t get banned in the first place. Commenting there is no difference to commenting on his streams. I don’t get why people watch this asshole anyway.
You won’t last long on lemmy
Gets banned on one subreddit
Evades ban
Gets banned from reddit for ban evasion
pikachu face
Complains on Lemmy how this is all reddit’s fault
Sorry mate, this one’s on you 🤷♀️
It’s also worth noting that they don’t permma-ban on the first instance of evasion, they just suspend you. He had to have done this multiple times.
Not to mention that sub is a cesspool and the streamer is a racist bitch
What’s a good ism? Classism? Behaviorism? Shapeism? I mean, upon what observable trait is it ok to base a judgment?
The reason for the ban is still stupid though.
True but ban evasion is ban evasion. It’s necessary because toxic cunts can always spawn more alts and banning would be negated. Same on Lemmy. OP is finding out and this whole thread is just cope
If the original ban was stupid then ban evasion isn’t actually ban evasion.
What you’re describing is a game that, win or lose, you always lose, just by playing. That’s a fucked up game.
