> that's not what the reddit community thinks is happening, leading to the current social climate on reddit. I... don't care? I guess you're making some kind of assumption that this conversation needs to know what you think the climate of Reddit's community is. I'd ask "Why" but, I care even less about that. Shadow-banning is for spammers, full stop. I don't care if you think other people think otherwise.

>I guess you're making some kind of assumption that this conversation needs to know what you think the climate of Reddit's community is. I'd ask "Why" but, I care even less about that. Why wouldn't I make that assumption? Go read the OP. One of the main points is that shadowbanning, or the belief in it, creates more distrust between reddit's admins and users.

  I'm sorry, but the salient point here is that shadowbanning isn't what you're claiming. End of story. I don't know how many ways to make this clearer.

  You've made it plenty clear. In turn, I made it clear that I was dubious of your claim, and that it didn't really matter to the point I was making.

    It's not a claim, it's a fact. This isn't a matter of opinion, this is objectively true. https://www.reddit.com/r/announcements/comments/3sbrro/account_suspensions_a_transparent_alternative_to/ https://www.reddit.com/r/announcements/comments/3sbrro/accou...

      Well, one thing that you may have failed to notice is that this is relatively recent: Less than a year ago, shadowbans were a common ocurrence on Reddit. Note how it said that suspensions would replace shadowbanning. And it's a claim until you give evidence. Until a day ago, as of now, you didn't.

        You were a not-great person to deal with in this interaction, I shouldn't have to hand-feed you information like this. Do some research next time.
