    That’s this account, I’ve also been banned from the world news .world community on a different account.

      The admins on world are trolls, I don’t know about the lead dude though. I’ve been either banned or shadow banned there, my stuff isn’t showing up except to the original poster sometimes. It’s very odd. I’m almost fully switched over to not posting, but sometimes I do by accident. World sucks.

          It absolutely has those vibes, I wonder if it’s owned by reddit or maybe meta? They seem to be doing things I think they would do. It could just be someone who wants to start their own reddit too. All just guesses, but I’m done with them.

            I think a lot of the communities on world were set up by disgruntled Reddit moderators, so that’s where the vibe comes from.

              For me, it’s not the communities, I’ve found them awesome. It’s the admins that are shit.

      Ah. I’m still a little curious whether it was for actual opinions or for being a jerk or etc. For what it’s worth I got banned from tons of stuff on reddit; I complained in one sub about being banned from another and quoted the thing that got me banned, and everyone started falling out of their chairs saying holy shit dude I’m not surprised, that message is a fuckin doozy. Like okay then, tell me why it’s wrong, don’t just shriek and run away and grab the banhammer.

      It’s a tough thing. I do get the necessity to police people doing personal attacks or blatant racism or spam to keep the community OK, but I don’t get how it seems like it always escalates to the list of allowed opinions and disallowed opinions.
