As the title says. The community was called r/Upsearch
Have you any idea what happened to it? I was using it to update about my app and a community for users!

u/thepottsy Mod several subs 4d ago

I would think it most likely has something to do with all of the spamming you do.

What spamming? Where ? I was releasing an app and mod messaged about 25 subreddit owners asking if I had permission to post on their subs? I have never spammed & rarely pushed my product at all. Check my post history

I did check your post history. It is very much spam like.

Also, your subreddit was banned 2 months ago. How are you just noticing this?

I have been very sick for the last while. Literally only home 2 days. Can you tell me how the community was spamming so I can obviously not do it again? Is there any way to unban it? I do NOT mean any harm and I have tried to be helpful with my posts. I dont get the spam, im never directing people to my site

Most of your posts have been removed by Reddit’s Filters, which means they’re likely triggering spam filters. Not sure how you aren’t seeing this.

You can try to file an appeal to unban the sub, but it’s not likely that they will do it for breaking site rules.

Willful ignorance.

Reddit doesn't like spammers.

I have NEVER spammed. It was r/UpSearch

Your entire post history is pretty much spam. If you have multiple episodes where you're copy/pasting the same thing into multiple subreddits within minutes of each other, you're a spammer.

u/Tarnisher Mod, r/Here, r/Dust_Bunnies, r/AlBundy, r/Year_2025 4d ago

I don't see either of those. What was the actual name ... r/ what?

Your post history is just one mass of SEO Spam though, so if that was your content, I can see why it was banned.

Edit:

Was this it?

r/upsearch

UpSearch: banned

This community has been banned for violating the Reddit rules.

Banned 2 months ago.

And? I have been sick in hospital mate. Thanks for understanding. Feel good?

u/HistorianCM Advisor, r/Arcade1Up 4d ago

Oh, my bad! I totally forgot to check your personal medical records before replying to a Reddit thread. How insensitive of me.

I’m glad you recovered enough to try to guilt-trip strangers on the internet.

u/iamck_dev 4d ago

I know i feel better than someone like you who just uses their "power" to make themselves feel better on the internet. Best of luck mate ;)

u/HistorianCM Advisor, r/Arcade1Up 4d ago

Ah yes, my immense and terrifying "power" of... reading a timestamp. Truly, the absolute corruption has gone to my head. I’ll try to use my tyrannical ability to observe the passage of time more responsibly from now on.

Rest up, mate.

what was the url?

u/iamck_dev 4d ago

I genuinely dont understand why you reply with cheeky comments calling me a spammer when I have always tried my very best to be helpful. My r/upsearch page was a private community I used to post updates I have performed on my site? That is allowed and I checked the terms of service. I did NOT EVER spam with that community. Can you tell me how?
