You are correct, you will no longer be allowed to establish a new account or log into any of your old accounts. All you can do is lurk & read but not interact. I’ve had five accounts over the last 15 years on reddit, they are all dead to me because same reason you’re experiencing.

I’m starting to suspect that Reddit bans accounts that have been long-standing and in good standing, only to take them over with bots, because accounts with longstanding credibility are a powerful tool for bots to take over. Because once we’ve been banned, we can no longer login to our account, so we can’t even go in and check if it’s been taken over.

So we come here instead 😄 Because we would go to reddit if we could but we’re all permabanned 😄

it’s insane that in his decades-long career, no one has come remotely close to matching him

There are surely plenty of other people out there who have similar humor & talent & charisma & intelligence & musical panache and are able to put it all together in brilliant art, but you know how the musical industry is rigged, weird Al slipped in during the late 1970’s at a fortuitous time before the music industry became rigged & proprietary. He is indeed a national treasure.

There are billions of people all over the planet. Everyone has talents that most people will never see on a large scale via the media. Because the media is rigged & gatekeeper’ed these days.

I for one used to inadvertently entertain my family as I went about the household chores by singing well-known tunes but substituting the words for what’s going on in our daily lives and we all found it hilarious. That was kinda weird al-esque, he’s so relatable, we all have our quirks & sense of humor and he taps into something that we can all relate to.

If there is no pattern or meter, it’s not a poem. It’s just words.

Any time I get the urge to post a reply, I remember I can’t, because am permabanned because they are a shit company with a rapidly deteriorating community.

It doesn’t rhyme

There are no meters

There is no pattern

Sounds like big brother doesn’t want people complaining about tariffs.

And big brother doesn’t want anyone to interfere with the financial bottom line of electronic vehicle sales.

Reddit is in bed with big brother.

Didja know they can VOTE too? These wimmin are gettin’ outta control I tell ya.

The reddit conspiracy lore runs deep, (RIP James Swartz 😭) and one of the Serena/Venus Williams pro tennis b̶r̶o̶t̶h̶e̶r̶s̶ sisters (a conspiracy theory in itself) marrying the CEO of reddit (hello is that some sort of weird illuminati pairing?) and this Ghislaine Maxwell nonsense, clearly all the pedos & illuminatis are in bed together.

How odd that she would go back to her old Reddit account after we’ve all figured out it’s her 🤦🏼‍♀️

I wonder why she wouldn’t just start over with a whole new Reddit account.

Part of the thrill of reddit is anonymity, and her reddit account WAS fairly anonymous, although her reddit username is kinda close to her real name, nobody cared who she was until she was in the news, we started putting clues together, and figured out it was her, noticing how the timing of her incarceration aligned with the date her reddit account was abandoned.

Weird however after she was in jail her account started to delete incriminating things. If she was in jail with no access to her reddit account, who was deleting her self-incriminating reddit posts & comments? Who else could it have been but her lawyer?

If he’d named it with more honesty & transparency, he would’ve named it The Creeper Catalog.

Looks like OP chose to interpret this ad in the creepiest way possible.

When I first discovered that sub, I was a JR fan, and assumed everyone else there would be fans too but all I saw were trolls mocking him with every post & every comment 🤷🏼‍♀️ So I left.

Making a new reddit account after being permabanned is called “circumventing a ban” which is illegal in reddit-land, and results in any future new account creation attempts also being permabanned/shadowbanned.

This is why most of us have come here to the fediverse.

I don’t think I could bear for one second browsing Reddit without having the subs carefully curated to my preferences.

I wonder why gaysian man has no avatar?

I don’t think it’s part of the joke, and it seems technocrit really might think that meme is Eddie Murphy.

amazing you made it 12 years! That’s probably a record for most people. Reddit will find any way possible to permanently ban any account they randomly choose. anyway congrats on making it 12 years.
