Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

It was my bad, but an honest mistake. I had two accounts. there were two subreddits: r/meme and r/memes. One doesn't want you to put the same meme on both (technically says something like: if you post somewhere else don't post the same thing here), at least a few months ago that is what the rules were. I am new to making memes so I made one on Canva to see if it would be generally accepted by the community and whether my ideas/jokes were even funny. I posted on one of them idk I cannot remember which. And forgot about that rule, which is debatably absurd to begin with but that isn't the absurd reason. (They did give me a 28 day ban for this, which is the absolute only thing I have ever done wrong on Reddit after a several years old account. While karma doesn't mean anything it still took effort to get it, lol, not that it matters)
They banned me from one, and I was continuing to post on the other subreddit. Mind you I am now on my other account, because I am a little ticked off (not because I was temp banned from the subreddit,but that a rule I didn't think of, and a little ridiculous is there, no warning, nothing)
Long story short, a few weeks later on that alternative account, I forgot about the whole thing, and didn't realize I commented on the wrong subreddit--the one I was banned on the other account on. This is how I accidentally circumvented a ban and got perma banned on only my alt account, temp banned on the other for a week. After that I deleted all my accounts (I had 5, the reason was not to break rules or anything bad rather one was for art, one for music, one for general social stuff etc)
Better on Lemmy anyway.
i was banned from r/gym on an old account for 28 days, for mentioning the "actor of ISAIP he was qouting was on roids" how is that a ban worthy report? im guessing fitness sub doesnt like the dirty word of being accuesed of PED usage. this was the midle of the purging between nov-dec 24.
