Where have you been banned/shadow banned?

ardvarcus 6.5 years ago

Banned repeatedly from Reddit. I kept trying to contribute to that fucking place, and the moderators kept banning me from my favorite subs, until finally one of them must have contacted the admins, because I was banned from the entire site, twice. Then I finally said "fuck it" and moved over to Voat, where I can still express my mind without getting banned (most of the time -- I'm banned from one sub on Voat, why, I have no idea). I didn't want to give in to the censorship pressures on Reddit, but they got so extreme it became impossible to work around them and still be honest in my posts.

No, @judgejewdy was just straight up banned...there was no "shadow". He was banned for repeatedly ignoring the submission rules.

Lol, I thought I recognized the user name.

Yup. There was a time when you could literally see the messages disappear. I remember one time I saw a thread between one “Henry Kissinger” and another I can’t recall saying “what are we going to do about this?” Next thing you know sub is “down for maintenance” and the list disappears. Fuckers won. Now pg sub is virtually useless, esp. regarding the actual pg stuff.

He should just be honest with the community. @HeyGeorge is transgender and proudly identifies as Voat’s shadowban engineer. He just feels intimidated you. He thinks you work for Tavistrock.

Please take note of HeyGeorge’s behavior mods. How many times do I have to come clear up the mess he has started? Ridiculous!

Thanks for answering!

Mods on this site can’t take down a sub for maintenance. That’s also not what a ‘shadowban’ is.

And I know what happened-m and that people line to act like voat isn’t compromised and those of us who have been kicked off, shadowbanned, blocked from getting upvoats, etc etc etc are crazy and making things up. To what end? Oh back in the day you would have called me a shill. Now I’m just plain crazy. Whatever George.

I didn’t say it was. I was giving another example of crap voat does.

I was giving another example of crap Voat does.

You were giving an example of beta software struggling under attacks and heavy load and pretending it’s a moderator’s fault.

You: I was shadowbanned on PG

Me: Really? Do tell!

You: Explanation

Me: Your explanation attributes impossible things to the mod team. And you do not seem to understand what a shadowban is!

You: I didn’t say it was.

Me: This is the topic of the conversation.

Please. We all know when voat went down and was sold off (or dubrah “stepped down”). Magically since pg has turned into a pile of shit there haven’t been any issues. All coincidental I’m sure. Now I’m gonna go back to eating my kolache.
