I'm not sure why you would think being banned should prompt self-reflection? It's not like any of my reasons for believing the things I do has changed, and it's not like being banned from Reddit really has any negative consequences for me.
I've also been shadow banned for sharing large lists of on topic youtube links.
I believe I am running into some sort of spam prevention system, even though I see other users posting similar content. So my theory is that there is some sort of whitelist for this activity (i changed my username often when i used reddit), or I am running afoul with a certain moderator or admin.
Hard to tell when you're not even banned so there isn't a reason given to me. Wonderful system.
Back to imgur's user-sub I guess. Also I appreciate yall having me here as well.
I got IP banned across my older unused accounts, and my newer ones for mass editing, then deleting my comments to a message that was basically "reddit killed itself due to this API change".
