Amen on this point. You and I don’t agree on much (despite rarely having interacted on the board), but I had a comment deleted from a Reddit thread, and I messaged a moderator to make my case. They upheld the deletion, so I asked for clarification on specifically wasn’t allowed in my comment. I was then banned from that particular subreddit under the guise of “harassing the moderator.”
There’s no place I can appeal that decision, either.
