• I got a couple of bans from automod because some precious mods get offended by you overwriting your comments with Power Delete Suite. Some of the comments were like 5 years old or older that were overwritten and got me banned.

      I got a bunch of automod messages too when I did it. If you edit a message, automod reviews it just as if it was a first post. If the edit breaks the sub’s rules (as it will if you used a generic message for all your posts as I did) then it’ll get blocked. Don’t think that’s being precious, just how automod tools work.

      • The message I received specifically mentioned editing past comments so the rule they made specifically targeted this. There was nothing in the post that might ordinarily get you banned.

      Ran it yesterday on 10000+ comments, and only got notifications from bots asking not to run scripts. Like 200+ of them. No bans

          Most subs didn’t care but from memory one of those that did was /r/elderscrollsonline.

          As I mentioned only a couple of subs had mods with egos so precious that they’d have Automod check years old comments for goodbye messages and automatically permanently ban you.
