So many people are affected by suspensions (even permanent) for reporting posts. The admins are gaslighting users who bring this to their attention.
I gathered a short list of examples of people talking about this topic.
In case you are still a Reddit user and logged in: DON’T COMMENT AND VOTE ON THESE REDDIT POSTS!

- False bans issued for "Report Abuse"
- Yesterday I got permanently banned from Reddit because of reporting a ban evading user
- Just finished a suspension for “report abuse” regarding a post I reported over 3 months ago.
- What defines report abuse, before reddit actions it?
- “Report abuse” abuse and other issues with “Report abuse”.
- Recent uptick in being falsely suspended for report abuse?
- Most of my moderation team has been banned site-wide at least once in the past few months, including myself. Morale has hit rock bottom. What exactly is Reddit’s end-game here?
r/NewToReddit
- Anyone know how to avoid “reporting abuse” bans or what triggers that?
- Can I get banned from reporting a ton of posts that definitely break a subreddit’s rules?
extern
- I live alone, have very few hobbies and my Reddit account was permanently banned for “report abuse.” My appeals are being ignored, and Reddit is a big part of my life. How do I reach Reddit admins to defend myself?
- Reddit once banned my account for “report abuse”. The content I had reported was then removed by them for being against their rules. No amount of appeals could get a response from them.
I just had to vent. I’m serious, don’t react to these posts on Reddit. No, this isn’t one of these “I tell you not to do something in the hope you are doing something” cases.

What does this have to do with a shitposting comm or Lemmy in general?
