That was worse than I thought it would be. They even singled out a certain user.

Banning people from a sub because they hurt your feelings lol

Sounds like the kind of abuse I'd expect from /r/drama moderators, tbqhwyf

Maybe but that ain't me so I get to make fun of him.

Sounds like you need to get back on the sauce and fulfill your janitorial obligations

Somebody's got to stay sober around here

I question your commitment to bullying.

I'm usually too nice, it's true.

Nah. Drama mods may be faggots, spazes, retards, degenerates and autists. But they aren't pussies.

Drama mods are unironically the most reasonable mods of any sub tbqh

At least we have the decency to tell you in advance that we're capricious alcoholic bullies.

But I've always love you, Kiwi.

I feel so dirty.

You're a lawyer, so obviously

Imagine if lawyers had feelings.

Impossible

As a person who appreciates specialized tools, you should know better than to not what the difference is between shadow banned versus just being banned from a particular subreddit by a somewhat deranged powermod.

He's wrong.

You can get automod to send your comments directly into the modque to be "approved", where they can just ignore them.

In essence, you can absolutely be shadowbanned on a specific sub.

Can't mods program automod to remove a specific users comments? I'm pretty sure that's been done before

I’m positive I’ve been shadowbanned by a subreddit before but that was five years ago. Idk if anything changed

It's called being filtered. Most commonly if you have a low karma count your post will be removed, or if you post something with a banned domain. Shadowbans are global and beyond jannies' power.

Well, if you set auto-mod to remove every comment from a user, without any notification, you may as well call that a "soft-shadowban".

The fact that I understood this whole convo chain tells me I need to get a fucking life

AHS loves doing that. "We let "hate sub" users post here" my ass.

author: 
    name:
        # section comment (eg spammers)
        - username1     
        - username2 # comment for specific user
        # section comment (eg trolls)
        - username3
action: remove

Neat. So what's the name for when you get auto removed by automod?

I don't know! We should make up a new name, got any recommendations?

Tzar says autobanning. I came up with botbanned but it needs work

"Shadowban."

It's when you are allowed to comment but your comments are removed unknowingly to you.

Then we might need a distinction between a site-wide shadowban enacted by the admins and a subreddit shadowban enacted by the mods of that subreddit.

Then we might need to mercilessly bully a bunch of autists when they oppose this extension of a term to a new functionally identical meaning on the grounds that their broken brains can't comprehend such a thing.

Then we might need a distinction between a site-wide shadowban enacted by the admins and a subreddit shadowban enacted by the mods of that subreddit.

I kinda trailed off, but that was the point, and what admins can do is slighty different than what automod can. The difference is between completely hiding a particular users posts sitewide vs one subreddit, and making it so that that user might not notice that nobody sees his/her/its posts.

what admins can do is slighty different than what automod can.

No, it's literally the same except for the reddit-wide vs subreddit distinction.

Do we need different words for reddit/subreddit bans too, because they are "slightly different" in the same way?

Autism speaks but I'm so tired of listending :/

Botcucked?

Robocucked

Yeah that sounds better

I think this is my favorite.

Robocuck - Detroit's wussiest cop. Is powered by soy and the semen of black men harvested out of his wife's vagina.

That's the kind of reboot I want to see.

I'm dubbing it autobanning

Nice.

its called shadowbanning because words are malleable like that 😏

Dabbed on

Yeah its still a thing, and its a great tool for getting tears from annoying people too stupid to make a new account.

I’m more offended by the suggestion of spending my hard earned payola on yeastwater and charitable donation.

this is gallowboob though, so id much rather make fun of him than some idiot who gets banned by him

Why is he still permitted to manage so many high profile (admittedly madlads isn’t high profile) subs?

People pay reddit money to have him shill for their products.

Do you think he kicks back to Reddit directly, or is their cut big enough

Reddit benefits from people buying gold, and as such have a vested interest in supporting individuals who are trying to maximize their internet point and gold collection? Doesn't have to have any kind of "official" deal or anything, just "this guy makes us money let's leave him alone"?

Watch reddit die over at subredditcancer.reddit

Imagine caring about the state of Reddit lmao

I was mocking OP for a "I got ban" post, I.e there are better sub reddits for that

Shut the fuck up bong lmao

Watch reddit die

Who's praying this hard for reddit? According to SRC and WRD reddit has been on its death throes for over 5 years.

It's a I got banned sub, its lame, that's my point

Ur lame

If you go to stevehoffsteter.reddit you can see comedy dying and a true reddit Facebook community.

what retard gilded this trash heap of a post?

what retard cries about gallowboob in current year?

._.

shame

Oh no, not you, trappy 😔

I WOULD NEVER

I want to believe someone so pure wouldn't commit such a heinous act.

Fuck your silver, peasant. Either golden shower me or not at all.

this entire comment chain actually makes me mad online

what kind of fucking retard donates money to a for-profit corporation in honor of several shitposts

maintain your personal safety

Given how salty GB is over /r/drama wouldn't even surprise me if...

inb4 you get gilded

also i've gotten gold randomly a couple times before but i honestly have no fucking clue what it means/what it's for other than some retard spent money on reddit, automatically devaluing them as a person.

Imagine paying actual real life money to put a medal sprite next to someone's name on Reddit.

What the hell kind of person gilds a comment with less than 10 upvotes

Lmfao gilded within an hour. Why is anyone gilding on this subreddit?

Why is anyone gilding on this subreddit?

FTFY.

don't hate the playa, hate the game

Saruh gets gilded all the time on her sub so she passes it out here to piss us off

EXPOSING MY SECRETS??

I'm hoping to expose a little more than that 😏

Trappysaruh gets a pass

Why you haff to be mad? Is just game

>Why is he still permitted to manage so many high profile (admittedly madlads isn’t high profile) subs?

Ah, Reddit's personal pedophile, vote manipulator that Spez endorses.

Send him mean reports and he'll cry to the admins and get you banned. Its actually kind of hilarious, I've lost a few accounts over it.

Gallowboob is litterally worse than trump.
