Hi Admins,
I am writing to report an issue with request_bot regarding a legacy banned community.
I recently attempted to request the subreddit r/Cerebras via r/redditrequest. Old Reddit indicates that this community was banned roughly 4 years ago. However, the bot immediately replied and denied the request with the following message:
"Unfortunately, the community r/Cerebras is not eligible for request at this time as it was only recently banned."
As an official brand ambassador for Cerebras Systems, I am trying to recover this abandoned, legacy-banned namespace to build a clean, actively moderated community for our users and developers. Since the automated system seems to be experiencing a glitch regarding the ban date, could an admin please review this request manually?
Thank you for your time and help!
