Well. I created an account called 'cfltz' and started posting summarization of news items that were discussed on the subreddit. I really have an ideological 'war' with how news is presented and I felt like it was really a good product for expanding the discourse.

Then after I got enough Karma, I think 500, after two months (I didn't really post religiously, just things that had my interest) I posted a link to the actual website instead of just a summarization. Within 60 seconds I got banned from the subreddit. I contacted the mods and asked what's up and they told me self-promotion is not allowed. So that was that. I accepted the resolution, deleted the account and got back to my main, which was also banned for one week for 'circumventing bans'.

Honestly... it's probably for the best. I haven't really used the website since then because I realized I was engaging with (surprisingly for someone building AI slop) low level slop.

Maybe you can try to appeal..

Being permanently banned from reddit and/or this site would be a huge deal for me.
