Got my account banned because I posted a photo that I uploaded to imgbb.com with the reason being “blacklisted URL”.

    Modding is a time consuming and often thankless job, this doesn’t sound like power tripping.

      Why not warning before banning for such stupid reason?

        Why not raise the request while being nice? You’d be surprised how much spam and scam I remove every day. So I wrote a bot that will do parts of it for me. The bot is not perfect and there will be false positives. If you contact the admins instead of calling them dicks, you might actually improve the Automods in use and prevent another false positive!
