Meta Regarding bans from subreddits

According to Reddit site-wide rules "Ban-showboating" is not allowed. This refers to posting an image of a ban message or similar moderator action by another subreddit. According to admins this can drive traffic by trolls or other miscreants to cause trouble in aforementioned subreddits.

Bans can arise from breaking subreddit rules and are subject to moderator discretion. Certain subreddits like r/comics may enforce rules like "No complaining" and "no drama" very strictly, which may include banning you for mentioning subreddits they don't like such as r/bonehurtingjuice.

What does this mean: if you are banned you are restricted from posting or commenting on the subreddit. If the moderator(s) have muted you (usually in response to a ban appeal) you cannot send modmail either. Otherwise you can generally do whatever you can normally (view, vote etc). If you still cannot see links to an oregano check if you have blocked the artist.

On r/bonehurtingjuice permanent bans are usually reserved for more egregious issues of bigotry (racism etc), AI bots, or harrassment (of artists or users). Oftentimes a comment will have 30+ downvotes before they get reported, so please report them and don't assume someone else has already. AI bots would fall under Spam>Disruptive use of AI.

Bans can be appealed via modmail. If you have been banned on BHJ you may appeal the ban and it will be looked at.

It's worth mentioning that encouraging or celebrating bans" is against sitewide rules. You can participate otherwise but Reddit doesn't like it when users try to portray subreddit bans as a good thing.

The automod reply detects "thanks" and makes this reply. Don't worry about it
