News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

There is definitely a restriction on the length of the message that you can sent. You first need to find the link specifically for appealing a ban. Messaging the Admins in general will get you no where. I simply said that I had an account that was 10 years old. (they could see the huge karma total that I had proving my account wasn't a throw away) I have been suspended for 2 years. I broke the rules. I will abide by the rules going forward and please reinstate me.
thanks for sharing! isnt there only one chance to appeal?
No. I don't think so. When I was initially banned I appealed and was rejected. Then I tried it again 6 months after the ban. Denied again. Then I forgot about it but all the talk of X and Meta changing the way that they handled things got me to thinking why not try it again. I have no idea if Reddit is changing their policy regarding permeant bans or if I just got lucky. I also think it helped in that I didn't jump through all the hoops to create another account, which is of course against the rules....and the first thing that they look at when you are appealing.
Interesting, because when i go to the link for appealing the ban, it says that i have already appealed and wont let me do it again. Maybe I will have to give it some time, or they have closed the possibility for more appeals?
I actually had to google reddit appeal to finally find the correct link. I was not able to get the link via my banned account. Do a search for reddit permeant ban and you should eventually find the link. Then just type in your reddit user name into the form
Will do thanks, but probably will wait several months before trying as my account was banned recently and the first appeal failed.

It's this the link you used?
Yes that is definitely the link. And yes I would wait several months and then start out by saying, "My account was banned X many months ago...."
Thanks for confirming!
