    I was in the WNBA sub a while back. And there was a conversation going about fair pay. I wasnt too into it, but I commented “Is the league profitable now? I thought it was still needing investment from the NBA?” Got instantly banned, and a rather nasty message from a lesbian woman, who was also non binary and “2S”. Why was any of that relevant to the conversation? Fuck knows. But she made a point of telling me anyway, while calling me a troll for saying that the WNBA was shit… which I didnt, as you can see from the comment. During the discussion of her inserting what she thought I was saying, I got the back story. I was then reddit banned for “harassment”. Thats right, she reported me to reddit for asking why I was banned, and saying that I never did what she said I did.

    That was the last interaction I had with a mod, the first was about 20 years ago in an xbox forum. Somehow, a playstation fanboy had got into the mod team and started banning people for saying that they prefer xbox to playstation… on an xbox forum… I have hated mods for as long as Ive been on line. They have nothing been anything other than power hungry bullies.
