12 year old account got permabanned for telling a Nazi off. But even before this happened I’ve noticed how much reddit has dropped off the last few years compared to when I discovered it.

Loads of old accounts are now just getting perma banned site wide.
I had an accot that hadn’t been used for commenting (just the every now and then looking for something) that got perma banned about a month ago. Reason? None given.
I’m guessing they want to rid the site of users that still remember how great it once was
I heard you can get banned for how you vote now. No comments needed.
Account age was used when factoring the credibility/legitimacy of a user account when humans moderated.
The AI moderators don’t care, and making most non-banned accounts younger makes it harder to verify the legitimacy of the accounts, which is even a good thing if they are trying to flood the site with bots.
this hasnt slowed down mass accounts from created instantly and to spam propaganda, OF accs, or Links to a business. i think what happen is they just upped thier sensitivity of thier spam filters, now its seeing botting everywhere, even normal people. and yes AI cant discriminate between a real person and a botter.
I remember when reddit used to invite actual interesting celebrities to do AMA’s. Things never were quite the same after they fired Victoria.
Oh good old Victoria… I wonder what happened to her, I’m sure she landed on her feet.
there is one that still does AMA, but he shills for republicans now, and posts propaganda(because he conveniently started doing this 1-2 months before trumps election as if he was shoring up republican support and this was right after coming out as hollywood republican) about vets/vet injuries, how he “Cares” about them, just because he was in a movie and visited a hospital.(reminiscient of how hilaria baldwin think shes spanish just because she lived in europe for a while)
There was even a time when AMA guests would just do the AMA for fun, or to get in touch with their fans. Not just when they are starring in a new movie or show / have “written” a book or some other financial motivation looming overhead.
God that was a car crash
or political motivation. i can name one that occasionally comes on reddit to do his amas. and posts pics of the “vets” he support.

… How do you create an account without realizing?
i framed it wrong, i meant i created accounts years ago, and forgot about it.
