One way they appear to be managing load is randomly banning users.
I've never had a report against me, I never post anything remotely spicy, I never even argue or flame. I moderated multiple subs.
And yet my 9-year, paid Reddit Gold account was randomly nuked. No explanation. Appeals denied. Support emails never answered.
I guess if your servers can't keep up, one way to cope is to just ban the folks who contribute the most to your site?
- nso 4y agoYou really believe they ban people as a way of mitigating high server loads? I'm sorry but like, come on...
- JohnBooty 4y agoI do not literally believe that, no. However I do often wonder what in the world is happening at Reddit HQ. Mitigating server load by banning users isn't too much sillier than some of their actual decisions.
