My Reddit account was banned today for “ban evasion”. The account they think I was evading a ban for was an account belonging to a user that I recently reported for harassing me. So they banned me for being harassed, basically. Appeal is going ignored. Has this happened to anyone else?

    Get on Reddit at work? If you share any public internet with literally ANY other Reddit troll who’s been banned, they just simply saw your IP address matched, and banned you because of that connection.

      I was on public Wi-Fi somewhere recently. That’s seriously enough to do this? May as well get it over with and ban everybody then.
