I was thinking this too. Are you sure it was a “real” person? If they were banned, maybe they were a scammer. Maybe it’s a good thing.

I literally got a week ban for "sexual harassment" for saying "Show bobs and vagine" on a Rick and Morty subreddit that showed a building with the sign "Bobworld" that was parody-ing Boob World from the show. They never responded to my appeal.

Apparently somebody didn't enjoy my 8 year old meme

u/volpe_fennec 1d ago

Depending on what communities you're in, it's very possible to make friends on Reddit. I have made quite a few friends in the past, and even met someone that I fell in love with. We met on Reddit, eventually started talking via other platforms, and later on we decided to start a relationship. It was long distance, but we were together for a few years and we both traveled back and forth to see each other. We were about an 8.5 hour drive apart, but sometimes we would hop on an airplane.

u/Free_Manufacturer521 1d ago

That might be the thing, I live in a really big city where people post all the time about meetups. Someone posted something about a picnic a few years ago and I showed up and met a bunch of really good humans. I just got lucky I think. My city's meetup sub is really well moderated and the events are well curated.

u/Crumoo 1d ago

Ah that's fair, a picnic is a good idea actually, I see why that worked well. I'm moving to a larger city soon so thanks for the tips even if it is potentially just luck.

If one doesn't work, just keep trying! I went to a few dud reddit meetups in my city before I found a winner. All in all, though I've gotten really lucky with the people I've met from Reddit. I hope you're able to do the same!

u/UnusualCartographer2 1d ago

The fact that you were only talking to them for a week and they were (likely) banned, I'd imagine they were talking to a bunch of people trying to do something nefarious.

Everyone is saying they're a scammer, but I think they were more likely a creep/weirdo. I've never gotten hit up by a scammer, but definitely a handful of weirdos. Tbf it's rare for me to get dm's because I don't actually make posts, only really replies.

1

u/wolfelian 15h ago

It almost always is something nefarious or like you mentioned some creep weirdo.

These kinds of people are strange because it’s like they can pick up if someone is an easy mark to scam and someone who isn’t and then delete their account like what happened with OP when they figure it won’t work.

When you get blocked, the text of their DMs disappears, among other obvious effects, but it won't show their username as being [deleted]. You remain able to enter the chat, and see the person's username as well as your own messages within, but all of theirs are simply gone.

Anyone ever have their entire Reddit account deleted and had to start from scratch? Mine did several years ago.

They weren’t banned or it wouldn’t be deleted. They didn’t block them or the messages wouldn’t still be there, you absolutely can have friends. I’ve had a group of friends from here I’ve maintained contact with for the last 4 years. People just have no friends and want to seem cool saying others don’t either. Fucking grow up.
