I decided to leave my first ever comment in a post on r/interestingasfuck today about a short clip and my comment was completely innocuous. Right away I got a message from their bot that I was perma banned even though it had nothing to do with my comment, but because I'm in another sub that they don't like? It happens to be an Etsy related sub. And I have no idea what is going on. The instructions stated to remove the comment and reply with "I have read the ban message, deleted all posts and comments in that subreddit and am now ready to be unbanned." However, I want to understand what is going on. I'm not going to remove a comment that does not violate anything "just because". It said I could reply to the message to speak with the mods but then doing that ended up with the bot responding I didn't follow the instructions and now I'm muted for 28 days despite the message itself stating that I could. Can someone fill me in on what is going on over there?
