Last Friday out of no where I get the message that I have banned from r/worldnews.

I ask why...no response.

I see that u/mike_pants is active so I PM him. This is the response I get.

re: So why did you ban me? from mike_pants sent 2 days ago I didn't, sorry.

So I ask if he knows who did.

re: So why did you ban me? from mike_pants sent 2 days ago Couldn't tell ya. I'm off the clock and don't have that info on mobile.

So today I check and there is still no response from the message the mods request. So I ask one last time and this is how he responds

re: You've been banned from participating in /r/worldnews from mike_pants[M] via /r/worldnews sent an hour ago Half of your comments are bigoted statements against one nationality or another (you really don't seem to care which, as long as you get to hate something), and the other half is whining about how much /r/worldnews sucks. So if you don't like the sub and you don't like the people, go away. Problem solved.

The "bigoted comments" he's referring to are me making fun of people making those comments, the sarcasm is so over the top it's painfully obvious. So he clearly is just looking for any excuse to justify the actions of one of the mods.

So he doesn't even recall the conversation we had just 2 days ago. So you can make bigoted statements, the place is a racist hell hole, but you can't have a laugh at those making the statements.

Oh and you must not criticise the content or character of the sub, apparently that is now bannable.

So forget the rules, the mods just do as they please.
