I’ve created a new Youtube channel called The Death Report, please check it out and subscribe. The channel focuses on real forensic cases involving homicides, suicides, workplace incidents, accidents, and other unusual deaths. Each case is examined through evidence, reconstruction, and forensic findings, with a focus on understanding what happened and why.

​

Reddit is a social media platform that pretends it allows free speech, but we all know it sometimes doesn't. There are also plenty of snowflakes dealing with personal problems and have a deep need to report content for no reason, just because they don't agree, not because it breaks any rules. Sadly the Admins(Reddit staff) on Reddit sometimes agree with these losers and suspend users even if no content policy rule was broken.

I've lost count of how many times I've been temporarily suspended, I've once been permanently suspended, actually now I've been permanently suspended I think 7 times, and I want to share with you what I do to lift the suspension. Many times Reddit is always just wrong and ignorant so I hope this guide helps, of course if you really broke some rules then this wont help.

First, very important! Read and get familiar with the Reddit content policy

Especially: Do not threaten, harass, or bully and Do not post violent content

​

Here are the steps you need to take if you've been suspended:

1. When you're suspended you get the option to send an appeal. The appeal form only allows 250 characters, so get to the point and explain how you did not break any content policy rules. I know how much you hate the admins but try to be sincere and apologetic. You need to send this appeal at least every day, save your text in a local document so you can copy paste daily.
2. Next step is to send a message to the Reddit Admins, here you can write longer text. Be more specific and point out in detail how your post or comment did not break any of the content policy rules. You need to send this also every day. Try to keep it within 1000 characters, save this text in a local document so you can copy paste daily. After sending you will probably get a message that you are suspended and that you should use the appeal form, reply to this message with the same text as you originally sent or the text from step 1.
3. Next step is to fill out the request form. Here you can use the same text you used in step 2. In the dropdown choose "I need help with my account" and insert the email you used for that account, then chose "Account status" and then "My account has been wrongly suspended" and insert your username, if you can log in then choose "Yes", otherwise "No", and then insert subject of inquiry, for example "False suspension". Send this request every day.

​

Do steps 1-3 every day. You need to be patient, this could take a week, two weeks, or even a month, in one case it took me 2 months. If more than a month has passed and still no luck it might be time to give up, that is up to you. Use the time to improve your texts and learn the content policy, you'd be surprised how common it is that Admins don't know Reddit's own rules.

It's very important to be polite and not rude to Reddit staff and admins when you message them.

If your appeal gets rejected and Reddit claims the suspension was correct, then you should continue appealing and following the steps. My appeal has twice been rejected but the second time it went through and was accepted. It might all come down to what human reviews your case. So don't give up.

So far this summer my account has been permanently suspended 4 7 times, and I'm still here.

​

Examples:

One time I was suspended for promoting hate. I pointed out to Reddit that my post and comment did not promote any hate, and I pointed out that my post was following the content policy, it was a graphic post but its purpose was educational and newsworthy, and marked NSFW and in an NSFW sub and with clear context. The suspension was lifted after about 2 weeks.

Another time I was suspended for threatening violence, I used the same explanation as above, and my suspension was lifted.

​

From the content policy:

We understand there are sometimes reasons to post violent content (e.g., educational, newsworthy, artistic, satire, documentary, etc.) so if you’re going to post something violent in nature that does not violate these terms, ensure you provide context to the viewer so the reason for posting is clear. If your content is borderline, please use a NSFW tag. Even mild violence can be difficult for someone to explain to others if they open it unexpectedly.

So basically if you're uploading something graphic then make sure the title is clear and post a comment in the thread with an explanation or something about the post, or write the context in the body. The context part is probably the most important, because without it you are technically violating the content policy. According to their policy a lack of context in a post with violent or graphic video or image is a violation of the rules. Always give clear title with your post and make a comment with some description of what is happening, or write the context in the body.

Example of violent content that would violate the Rule according to Do not post violent content:

Graphic violence, image, or video without appropriate context.

Here's an old post I made about how most of the gore content does not violate Reddit's content policy.

I hope some of this helps, let me know if you have questions.
