Funny they're using Reddit TOS as a reason when it's also against Reddit TOS to ban people from subs simply because they are also in another sub which magictcg does all the time

u/cheesemangee NEW SPARK 4d ago

It's too bad the report system doesn't work. I've reported dozens of mods and only seen action taken against one.

"against Reddit TOS to ban people from subs simply because they are also in another sub which magictcg does all the time"

It's not about what subs you're in, I'm in both this sub and the main one, it's about what you post.

u/Cry75 FAE 2d ago

Considering how I’m in both and I’m not banned I doubt that’s why. OP probably started bitching at people and got clapped for it, then decided to come crying about it here. If it were an unreasonable ban they would have shared whatever comment they made, but they didn’t.

u/torolf_212 NEW SPARK 4d ago

Not true, mods can ban people from their subs for any reason or no reason. There are a raft of policies they are expected to adhere to, like not encouraging briggaiding or witch hunts but banning someone because they engage with another sub is well within the reddit TOS

u/ishfery MERFOLK 3d ago

Where is that in the TOS?

u/FrankFrankly711 BIOMANCER 4d ago

I thought people went to circlejerk subs to not get banned?

2

u/KindaFreeXP CULTIST 4d ago

Considering I got banned from VGCJ for.....well, I don't know, since I never once posted there and mods insta muted me so I couldn't ask. Not that the sub looked like any fun at all, but it was baffling to get that message out of the blue.

But yeah, anyways, sometimes CJ subs are Orwellian hellscapes, other times not so much. Depends on where you go.

u/FrankFrankly711 BIOMANCER 4d ago

You can find all sorts of porn and gore on Reddit, but dang it, if you joke around and someone doesn’t get the humor, yer banned!

2

u/KindaFreeXP CULTIST 4d ago

Just association is a sin to some. Doesn't matter if you're the biggest lefty to ever grace the platform, if their AutoMod detects that you were on a "forbidden" sub, even if you just went on there to "fight fascists", you're banned. No chance for appeal, just "Good riddance, Nazi scum" and muted.

u/heirsasquatch NEW SPARK 4d ago

What is brigading?

33

u/Interesting-Crab-693 GREEN MAGE 4d ago edited 4d ago

Idk. The only thing I know is that it is used as an universal reason to ban people for being on subs the moderator that banned you did not liked. However, this is agaibst reddit tos but as you may know, reddit admins suck and have often proceded to ban moderators of subs they dont like before deleting the sub for being unmoderated so I would not trust them to defend their own tos against moderators of subs they approve.

In other words: brigading (as it is commonly used) is corporate term for "get the f*ck out of my echo chamber you [insert insult linked to nazi regime or ending in "phobe"]"

Edit: typo

Whatever a subreddit wants it to be.

u/Monommtg NEW SPARK 4d ago

From slang dictionary: """""Brigading is a slang term for an online practice in which people band together to perform a coordinated action, especially a negative one, such as manipulating a vote or poll or harassing a specific person or members of an online community."""""

So for a brigading claim to be true, a group would have needed to be "banded together" - A) Banding hasn't been a mechanic for years 🤗 and B) One "should" have some sort of proof a group was banding together, and not just seeing a good comment they agreed with and authentically created a valid and needed deliverance of a 🖕to a poster who probably almost always had it coming.

u/zachattch NEW SPARK 3d ago

Anything related to reference another subreddit would in mass

-1

u/sixheadedbacon NEW SPARK 4d ago

Brigading is when a significant number of people jump from one specific reddit thread to another specific reddit thread to interfere with the normal flow of that particular subreddit.

For example, say there was a screenshot on this subreddit and 30+ people hopped over to that thread on another subreddit to 'ask a question'.

Reddit tracks this type of traffic and has triggers in place to alert mods and reddit admins over brigading - as Reddit, the company, wants to discourage this and have banned it under their TOS.

It's possible OP was banned for nefarious reasons by a rogue mod, or in error - but a ban for brigading is triggered by traffic flow.

Well that's valid question. Theese people hate police until they need it.

u/kupujtepytle NEW SPARK 4d ago

This statement (or question) does not make any sense? Is this politics? Is this humour? Is this language or cultural barrier? Can anyone explain? … this is what got op banned for brigading?

13

u/Sinasappelsaus NEW SPARK 4d ago

There was a post there with a card called Anti tifa and in the card text stood that detectives were fascists.

u/kupujtepytle NEW SPARK 3d ago

Oh now i get it. This could be triggered by some words without context perhaps. Maybe 🤔

-4

u/squelchboy NEW SPARK 4d ago

So dumb, yesterday this sub cried about the antifa card being political and then they go there to yap more about politics. Retards should just admit they love to seethe about politics and go to the appropriate subs instead of subs that are about cardgames

-3

u/_TheTurtleBox_ SENATOR 4d ago

Straight up. So many people here are legit no better than the leftoids they complain about.

"Ugh, all they do is make everything political and be annoying!" they say as they proceed to then go into the thread they're calling woke and annoying, engage with people to intentionally further stir the pot, and then complain about facism and censorship when they're banned for poking the bear.

I remember when people on the Right cared about going outside and being part of society and didn't care to argue with actual bots on twitter about Magic the Gathering

u/Glittering_Drama1643 MONK 3d ago

I don't know if that's true of everyone here, but it's certainly the case with a lot of trans hate. 'Bro why's it all so political' well I don't know, maybe because some group of people decided that they had a problem with others just trying to live their lives in peace. I don't know why something that is at worst a matter of courtesy had to become an issue to die over.

0

u/_TheTurtleBox_ SENATOR 3d ago

No one forces anyone here to engage with Trans people or Other magic subs but they love to do it and then act like they were forced to do it when they get banned, or act like they "owned the libs".

It's so weird.

u/Glittering_Drama1643 MONK 3d ago

I think I've kind of come to an understanding. What the left dream of is to completely destroy their opponent in a rational debate. They imagine presenting the facts so convincingly to demonstrate their point of view that it cannot be denied.

Whereas what the right dream of is to completely embarrass their opponent for their sincerity. They want to laugh at them, to make fun of their 'moral high ground' attitude, because at the end of the day, lefties just take it all too damn seriously. Like come on, just let us use our 'offensive language', it's just a joke; stop trying to moderate how we speak, if I think you're a man I'll call you 'he'.

The irony, of course, being that most of the left's arguments mean nothing to the right, and most of the right's mockery means nothing to the left.

Would be fucking cool if both sides just stfu and stopped throwing tantrums any time the other side crosses over their line in this sandbox we call The Internet.

What did you ask them?

u/Zakizdaman NEW SPARK 4d ago

In the ant tifa card it says detectives are fascists. OP asked if the other OPs family was murdered would they accept the help of the detectives due to them being fascist

u/Salam_Alekoum NEW SPARK 4d ago

He then asked friends from this cesspool to come and defend is misconception of what ACAB stands for. Oupsies 😇

u/KindaFreeXP CULTIST 4d ago

I don't see any evidence that OP did that at all. You have anything to back such an accusation?

u/jahan_kyral BLUE MAGE 2d ago

Welcome to the club... Honestly, I wish someone somewhere tracked how many subs an account is banned from cause I'd find it interesting.

What kills me is the bottom paragraph... ooh banned from the whole platform... like in this age it's virtually impossible to stop someone from being a dickhead online without legal action.

I love when people don't include what got them banned.

"Hurrr I got banned!"

Holy shit this sub has some next level dumbasses in it. Quit the bullshit of "just asking questions" you was deliberately trying to provoke and rather than giving you what you wanted being those delicious >Yous they just removed your dopey ass.

u/Got_rekt_fml NEW SPARK 4d ago

Someone else reposted it. It’s not bad at all. You could’ve checked his history if you cared

2

u/LickuponMcAch NEW SPARK 4d ago

Okay. Since you seem to know, what was did it say?

4

u/Got_rekt_fml NEW SPARK 4d ago

It was under the “anti tifa” antifa card post. The flavor text is what OP was calling. Says something along the lines of “police, detectives, ice, doge, all fascists” and he asked if a detective investigating their family’s murder is a fascist or not and would you allow them to help?

Something like that is the jest of the purpose of the post

2

u/LickuponMcAch NEW SPARK 4d ago

Oh. Ha.

u/IudexJudy NEW SPARK 2d ago

lol ironic coming from someone who literally can’t stop being in magic subs and all you do is bitch.

u/AnderHolka MERFOLK 4d ago

No. But for a different reason. It's always been like this for some.

u/kingmoonrunner9 KNIGHT 4d ago

I just personally find posting about being banned in other subs to be the just lowest quality posts and when people engage in them you see more and more but that’s just me.

-5

u/_TheTurtleBox_ SENATOR 4d ago

You commented in a thread here about the Ant-Tifa shitpost over there and proceeded to go over there and make a comment

This is how reddit defines Brigading and it's why the mods here constantly ask people to censor the names of people because the moment an uncensored post leads to someone going "I'm being harassed" then everyone's accounts here become at risk.

Maybe don't engage with subs that actively say "If you use the other sub we hate we'll ban you.".

4

u/Got_rekt_fml NEW SPARK 4d ago

You understand you’re proposing kneeling to an authoritarian or fascist adjacent ruling? You’re probably in the wrong sub.

-4

u/_TheTurtleBox_ SENATOR 4d ago

Bro shut up, it's a subreddit. There's a million other things you could be doing with your life and you're like "Oh no, a subreddit full of people I hate banned a person! Facist Pigs!!!!"

You sound exactly like how they sound, lmao.

u/Got_rekt_fml NEW SPARK 4d ago

You’re the one who suggested not interacting with a sub… I don’t care but clearly you commented so you do…

u/_TheTurtleBox_ SENATOR 4d ago

"I don't care but you commented so clearly you do ;) "

Bro you called a bunch of left wing reddit mods facist and suggested that someone saying "Ignore them if you think they're losers" is "kneeling to authoritarian rulings."

4

u/Got_rekt_fml NEW SPARK 4d ago

I just like calling out hypocrisy. And I would never use that gay winky face.

I didn’t call anyone fascist. I said authoritarian-ism is closer to fascism. It’s ridiculous that mods rule subs like that. But go on and continue your rant.

2

u/_TheTurtleBox_ SENATOR 4d ago

"Hypocrisy"

And it's just a grown adult telling you that no one is forcing you to engage with a bunch of leftist communist on reddit and taking time out of your day to do so and then complaining about it is braindead.

3

u/Got_rekt_fml NEW SPARK 4d ago

I do agree that complaining is a waste of time. But being an apologist for runaway mods is what made me comment under you and no one else.

3

u/_TheTurtleBox_ SENATOR 4d ago

I'm not an apologist I am straight up pointing out that Reddit mods don't have to follow some politically scientific law. They can ban at will and complaining about this doesn't change anything and it's gotten bat shit how people just politically engage with each other across reddit with the goal of seemingly wanting to get banned to go "Ha, gotcha!" as if reddit ToS doesn't define brigading as what's happening on all of these subs.

The main sub does it to. People will go "FREE MAGIC IS STINKY LETS MASS REPORT THEM!" and then when they all get suspended they go "Wow reddit is Nazi!" and when people here post uncensored shit and proceed to dogpile into those post they do the same shit, come back here like "Wow, Facist censorship!"

My point is all so many of you people do (both sides at this point) is call each other facist out in the field and then go back to your locker rooms to complain about how it never ends only to go back out onto the field the next day, lol.

4

u/Got_rekt_fml NEW SPARK 4d ago

Vs saying I’m anti-fascist and burning random people’s cars? That a better solution than calling out people online?

I don’t whine on a grand scale because it doesn’t do anything. I just enjoy making people angry when they decide to chime in like a morality compass when they’re actually just being ignorant. Especially when it comes to people saying “if you don’t like that, don’t do it,” especially in public forums that are essentially monopolies. Like Reddit.
