Just got back a message from the mods who told me to grow up and called me a 'hero'. They also muted me for 28 days so I can't message them any more. My reply to their ban was this "Banned for deleting my own comment in a 10 year old thread? Funny."

And just so anyone can see, this is the only message I sent them regarding the ban.

You can consider your Reddit account permabanned too. Powermods will typically report any "backtalk" to the Reddit admins which basically will get you permabanned no matter your infraction history.l

That's fine with me I was deleting it on the 30th anyhow. Plus this should highlight the pathetic atmosphere over there for anyone who is on the fence about leaving.

I think I just made the decision to start editing and then deleting. This is gross.
