      Mods on c/politicalmemes took down a post I made saying that it was not a meme (spam was what they called it, it was not spam). When I pointed out that very few of the posts in that community are memes, they banned me.

      Anyway, be careful out there.

        Political Memes mod here. You had a post removed because it broke the rules of the community, which is not a big deal at all… However, you chose to then get angry and report a bunch of other posts that did not break the rules and therefore you were banned for report abuse- which IS a big deal.

        If you had simple messaged one of us and pointed out where you thought you were wronged, I or any of the other mods would have had no problem hearing you out.

        Here is your modlog in the event that you have forgotten how things went down.

        Hope this helps!

            Any time someone says “I was banned for no reason!” there always turns out to be a reason.

            Sure mods can be dicks but have you met most users?

            Just setting the record straight when I can! I usually try not to get involved as it never seems to make a difference in the long run, but I felt this needed to be ironed out. I assumed it’d be a simple explanation-
