Hi, I recently realized I've been banned from about 10 communities, the only reason given in the modlog being 'automod', as of 2 months ago. As far as I can tell I didn't do anything to deserve these bans. I've never even commented in several of these communities and none of my comments have ever violated any rules as far as I'm aware. Can someone shed some light on this?

These are not communities in our instance, so you'd have to ask the mods of those communities to get to the bottom of this

You likely voted on something and a shared mod banned you from several communities because of it. It's happened to me a few times.

Omg I'm an idiot. My mistake sorry, I had an account on sh.itjust.works too and I guess my brain mixed up the instance the account was on with the instance the communities were on. Thanks for your response.

So if you vote on something and a particular moderator does not like that, ban. You are banned from certain instances?

That’s so… Reddit-like. Reddit moderators do that constantly, you are in a community they don’t like? Boom, banned from community.

That sucks aye :/
