    I mean… Isn’t always shadow banning a much better option? Otherwise they quickly go and create a new account.

      Well there was someone who was shadow banned on Reddit by mistake for years, and they thought everyone hated them because no one replied or upvoted. So it’s not always the best option.

        LoL. Imagine being that caught up in digital votes. That’s pretty funny.

            Yes but this person is saying an account that spent years posting and tracking engagement when there was none. I just can’t fathom that level of pathetic narcissism. I’m thankful for that.

                Umm, Yes that’s what those words in that sequence mean. Someone was tracking their upvotes and were emotionally impacted by the lack of engagement.

                Just because you are also emotionally vulnerable to online feedback doesn’t mean that’s not what those words mean.
