Has anyone else ran into a r/conspiracy ban lately? This has been amidst messages between moderators and admins alike that the content here is "trash".

I haven't gotten an answer from the mods aside from that I violated their "rule 10" Which states
Posts that attack this sub, users or mods thereof, will be removed. Accusing another user of being a troll or shill can be viewed as an attack, depending on context. First violations will usually result in a warning but bans are at the mods' discretion.
I didn't post any violent profanity, but I did make allegory towards the way Reddit's mechanisms are. So, has anyone else sought asylum from the seat warmer mods on Reddit or otherwise any form of dissenting get-away?

outlawing calling anyone a shill is proof that sub and of course all of reddit is full of protected shills.

I’m on my 40th account, I think. I have no respect for the moderators or their rules, because the only rules they enforce are “no caps” and “don’t call anyone a shill”, even if 1. you’ve proven it or 2. it’s talking about someone else.
Oh, and they hate it when you refute someone using facts and citations. Usually get banned for that.

Looks like Voat is turning all Redditty. Rule 10 bullshit was created on Reddit even though it was painfully obvious that the place was shill central.

When there was that influx of users on that sub, (Trump's inauguration if mem s3rvs) I got banned. Granted I was totally inebriated, and I forgot I posted that comment, but I mentioned kek for some reason. The mod gave no warning, just just a permanent ban. My response was reasonable, I even said "you're doing a good job" because there was an influx of ~~shirt~~ [edit: shit] posting in that 48 hour window, but I'm sure he blocked messages from me after his first justification message.
Anyway, Voat's design is more modern. I'm a truth seeker and have been lurking here ever since. :-D

I blocked the mod, messaged the other mods, and also reported that mod. That mod in question, also posts the most cliche types of conspiracy you can find that offer no true conspiracy.

I spent a few hours last night reading the nonsense on reddit and just decided to quit after nine years. I could not find a short, quick way to quit, so deleted all my user names, about five. I have better things to do with my time.

You're still on Reddit? What's wrong with you?!
Betty_Swollocks ago
I still visit Reddit. I deleted my account, but you can still go there and see what shit is going down on some of the interesting subs.
discojack ago
Not anymore~ ! No reason to, and I didn't get much out of their subreddit anyways.

As of this very second, you and I are friends. Here's an upvoat. :)

Are you Harvey who used to live in Japan? Your office was two doors down from mine. I am now officially retired from that ignoble institution.
HarveyKlinger ago
Nope. Illinois native, live in the burbs of Chicago. Never been to Japan.
Wait, there was a guy in Japan named Harvey Klinger? Do they get the Brady Bunch in English over there?
jervybingly ago
I don't get Brady Bunch, but come to think od it, his name was Hardy Klinger. We were pretty good buds till he went back to Germany. I guess t's a common name over there. Thanks.

That's where my name comes from. Harvey Klinger was this nerdy guy that Marcia had the hots for who's ONLY hobby was collecting insects and being book smart. I used that name because I figured the new school kids wouldn't have a clue who it is but the old timers that watched Brady Bunch would get it.

Hardy was booksmart but definitely NOT an insect collector.
