Anyone Else Constantly Banned on 4chan

I think I was banned most recently and this is something I've noticed about the site lately and it's almost ruined it for me, by asking a question in the board dedicated to the topic I was asking a question about, instead of doing in in /r/ request because far be it from me to assume you would go to a board dedicated to a certain subject matter to ask a question about that subject matter in the hopes that someone might know what you're asking there, rather than asking it in request where it's sure to be ignored.

It seems like they're really dictatorial about "requests" there now which is just asinine.

And what a shame that is.
 
My last ban was on /k/ for posting gun blueprints and instructions on how to dab on the ATF
 
I think the real question is how did OP get the time machine to go back to 2006 that would make them want to post on 4chan

Maybe, but the culture is so much worse than then and openly hostile to freedom of speech, so it’s an uphill battle in a way it didn’t used to be.
 
I got perma-banned for replying to 3 off-topic threads after visiting 4chan for the first time in nearly a year. Oh well...

Been using 4chan since I was 14 and managed to never get an underage ban (I'm an adult now), but three years ago I got a three-day ban for making a /b/ thread on an active /pol/ raid. More recently I got a 3-day ban from /sci/ for asking for homework help, which I knew was against the rules but I didn't expect anyone on /wsr/ to know about group theory.

A little while after that, I did this:

On the last day of finals, I'm spamming Diggeh's THQ copypasta on /v/ until I get my college tempbanned.

Don't think I got banned, but I started a thread with the pasta

It seems you get banned a lot more often for routine shitposts these days. I think sometimes the mods are just utter newfags who don't know memes.

I got banned yesterday because my post was accused of 'Advertising' but thankfully my appeal went though and I'm unbanned. It was a heavy ban as well, almost a week ban.

It was on a post I made few days ago on /qa/ asking what users there think of the current state of 8chan/8kun.

It was a pretty decent discussion and I wonder if I should post it here because IIRC it's been archived on Desuarchive.

Still I wondered why I got banned in the first place, that post was up for more than a day and my post clearly had zero intent for shilling or advertising.

I call it "new moderator syndrome": when a person becomes a new moderator on an online community and spends the first few months taking the "job" very seriously. Symptoms include enforcing rules that don't exist, deleting threads because you don't like them or deemed them to be off-topic, and handing out frequent and pointless bans.

I don't know if its still site policy, but for a while mentioning 8chan on 4chan earned you a swift ban because back when Gamergate was at its peak, Frederick Brennan and others shilled their site as hard as possible on 4chan for weeks, hoping to appeal to users who were pissed off with moot's deciscion to ban GG discussion. If you mentioned 8chan you were assumed to be a shill trying to advertise the site and lure people away from 4chan. I believe posting the words "8chan" and "infinitechan" still get you an automatic warning or ban, so most people say "8ch", "8gag" or "cripplechan".

Well that's a dumb rule. From what I've seen in my thread, 8chan/8kun is now irrelevant so a rule like that still active after GG is dumb.
They should really remove that rule.

I was going to say I've never heard of that before, but I just tried posting in class and apparently my college's wifi got an "off-topic garbage" permaban sometime within the past couple hours. The fuck is going on? :stress:

That kind of shit is counterproductive. Someone might just suck up a 72 hour ban for shitposting. But if you get a perma for utter bullshit, or shit that isn't even against the rules, you're just going to change IPs and shitpost even harder.
