Is it the end if Reddit ban you permanently?

Hacker News - Sat, 04/19/2025 - 12:18pm

I got banned twice now on two separate accounts. Both times, the message they sent me in my inbox are:

Your account has been permanently banned for breaking the rules.

This account has been permanently banned due to multiple, repeated violations of Reddit's Content Policy on your other account(s). For more information about what rules you broke and how to appeal, check your account inboxes.

This is ridiculous to me. My first account was over a few years old. I was barely on there. Made one post last year January, then decided I want to be active again back in February. Then I get hit with that. Not even a warning or a clear enough reason as to what rule I broke. I had only that one account then. Send a few appeals, and they were either rejected or ignored. So fast forward this month, April, I made another account. In order to ask for help, and to start over. I knew the possibility of getting banned again was there. But hope it doesn't occurred again. But it did. Once again, I'm here, wondering if my other appeals will be ignored again. My first appeal sent to them was rejected by a bot. The only thing I could think of as to what might have gotten me banned falsely is my IP address. My sister also uses Reddit, as due to her personality, her way of thinking and viewing things emotionally and mentally, it's not hard to imagine she would get banned from Reddit too. She's in special class, and etc just to get a picture. The change she try to evade a ban to create another account and so forth is high. And because we live in the same house, I suspect Reddit banned me because they think I'm her. Or that we share an account or are the same person. That's the only reason I can think of for this random ban. I didn't want to sit there and just not be able to use Reddit, which is why that second account exists a month or so later. As it's clear they're ignoring the appeals I sent for the first account. But is it over then? Do they ban people as they please without solid prove?
