Got banned for trying to help stop spam and scammers.
Maybes I missed the rule that says "Redditors that try to be helpful will be banned".
It's so hard to read the posts here? I'm thinking about going back to Reddit right now. What's with this dark and complicated theme?

Spam and scammers are their bread and butter now.
They’re doing you a favor. Get banned from the entire site and enjoy the freedom.

"We dont go to Redditholm anymore..."
17Why waste your time there?
22Forget about it Jake, it's reddit-town.
16Edit: I misread the posted image, OP is suggesting rules to filter new accounts, not with a new account themselves.
A brand new account getting banned tells us almost nothing about whether the ban was warranted. Brand new accounts talking about automod are either evading a ban or have history on their main account they don't want the mods to see. These might be horrible power-abusing mods, but even if there wasn't a larger history not seen here, banning a brand new account just because the vibes seem off is a-ok in my book.9OP didn't get banned for having a new account

Nothing said why he got banned, but he got banned with a brand new account. The new account isn't the ban reason itself, but it's the reason the mods would be on a hair trigger for just the whiff of a problem.8
Alright feels like we got another wave coming?
Is reddit cracking down again?
6Just mods on a sub being stupid.

What is that subreddit for exactly?
4A place to pick up jobs for cheap. I'm a programmer so little fixes here and there for beer money. Sometimes leads to bigger things. I've even worked for one of the mods there too, funnily enough. There's been a huge wave of utter gak recently so I thought I'd suggest a fix. Got banned... F**k em!
