    I got banned once because I used to make a new account every few months and accidently commented in a subreddit I’ve been blocked before. This means reddit tracks your different accounts by email or ip address. I bet the place is evil internally.

      I mean that sort of thing is pretty much standard operating procedure for any forum. Whenever you ban anyone the first thing they’ll do is make a new account. Keeping out the spammers and whatnot is hard enough without return customers.

      Someone kept doing that to my subreddit, and did not get banned. I think he might still be at it, but I’m not sure.
