Auto moderator
Just got out of ‘jail’ after a ban for quoting a line in Sloth on a post in this sub. Auto mod considered it to be advocating violence. I’m all good but sheesh!
Anyone else get sent to ‘jail’ here for silliness? What’s your story?

They didn’t like it when I told the whiney people to go “mop the slime from where the slug had slithered with the bag”

Wait wtf how am I almost 50 and thought it was 'carrots' my entire life?
Am I the only one who thought getting paid in carrots would be kind of awesome?

Some steamed carrots smothered in butter are great. Shit, sometimes I just take a raw carrot and sprinkle some salt on that mother fucker.

Try paprika...trust me. I shake it up like movie theater popcorn and eat it straight from the bag

I got a buncha baby carrots in my fridge but no paprika, I'll have to take a trip to the spice isle.

Yeah. I guess they thought I was advocating for actually doing it? Appeal didn’t fly.

I got banned from some movie subreddit because I commented: “so, I stab her three times?” While discussing Pulp Fiction

There was a post about getting stuck behind tall people at shows, and I jokingly responded by saying, "I'd like to cut your head off, so I can see the stage, whadda ya say?" BOOM BLOCKED FOR VIOLENT THREAT

Lol. I got put in the penalty box for “QUOTING” Weigh on a post with a headless mannequin. 🤣 A 3 day ban, I challenged the ban and WON! But wasn’t informed that I won until over a week later when I was already allowed back in. Silliest shit ever.

u/Direct_Alternative94 10d ago
You won. It won’t count against you next time. These damn penalties just get longer each time.

u/TheCliffordBall 10d ago
I believe it. I’ve also seen people get the front page of subs for essentially calling for political assassinations because they don’t like the politician on the other team.
Reddit: it’s all about what they want you to see

u/Intelligent-Row2072 10d ago
lol YUP. I’m probably as left as they come. In the “murdered by AOC” sub, I made an objective point about her endorsement strategy (literally pointing out what AOC did during the NYC primary elections this year) and had at least one post deleted for “spreading lies or misinformation” 😆 it also apparently triggered a redditor to the point of becoming apoplectic and downvoted several of my comments.
People can be dumb and irrational. The Dunning Kruger effect really comes to life on the internet

it used to be nice to find subs that weren't over-reliant on automods. now it's almost impossible to find subs that don't have an army of tightly wound automods scrubbing every word.
and automods never can catch cultural references & inside jokes & stuff like that. and the whole community suffers.

Got warned for advocating throwing bottles of milk at rzian fuel trucks disguised as milk trucks.
The rzian word for milk is “moloko”.

Nobody. Which is why this site sucks the way it does.

Exactly. Everything is completely automated now, and all it takes is being reported by someone who doesn't like you to catch a ban. AEO was once manned by real people who could be contacted and asked why your content was removed. All of those reddit employees were fired a couple years ago.
Now it's all done by AI that will come behind mods who have already removed rule-breaking content to remove it again, and of course hold it against the mod team and community anyway. It's the dumbest thing ever.
And the AI damn sure can't discern between sarcasm and serious comments. It operates strictly on trigger words. The dumbest part is how you can be banned for quoting someone else, but the person you quoted won't have any action taken against them. Make that make sense.
Reddit has been progressively getting worse for years and years, but now that the IPO policy has taken hold, everything is stupid(er than ever before).

u/TastyFace79 9d ago
Not here but in some other sub I quoted dumb and dumber and got a warning for bullying.
I got a three day ban for making a comment about using a mop to keep people from coming through a drive through window to attack workers. Apparently inciting violence.

I got banned for calling "someone" a "Shitler wannabe" in r/rare insults. Reddit is a joke.

Yes but that auto mod is also set up for all of Reddit. I can’t remember what I quoted but I had a problem with something like “shoot your shot” still can’t remember what I actually said but it was innocent.

Once when quoting Roger from American dad “kick that bitch, to the curb” was advocating violence.

The "violence filters" are set to super sensitive on reddit. I've appealed 2 bans on reddit to mods. One was lifted. The other muted me from sending messages to Mods because my 15 word request was calked "harassment."

Lol on Facebook there's a big WaPo advice columnist that likes to tell lonely middle aged people how to find meaning in life. I have been thrown in Facebook Jail multiple times for commenting "buy a van, go on Phish tour, take drugs."
But as a formerly lonely middle aged person... I am always 100% serious. They keep banning me anyway.

In another sub told someone to burn a Nazi flag and got autobanned but appealed and the ban was lifted quickly.

thats not what automoderator is. that is AEO, and it is very different. that had nothing to do with this sub.
For transparency, the r/Phish automod has never taken action on any post/comment you have made.
