Banned from /r/polandball for deleting my comments

I've received this message on my inbox just a few hours after deleting my posts (all of them) last night.

I'm just glad to know where they stand.

And yes, I know that a lot of people have unsavory views about that subreddit, but I guess there's just no accounting for taste.

Note how they simply said "because you broke this community's rules" without saying which. It's a type of kafkatrapping, a scummy but rather effective way to enforce hidden rules - if I don't tell you what you did, you can't prove that you didn't, so everybody else will assume that you did.

The admins in special really like this, with some ban messages being like "you broke the content policy" or "multiple, repeated violations of the content policy" (even after you did one thing). Perhaps not surprisingly some mods more "in-touch" with the admins do the same.

TL;DR: even if Reddit wasn't going down, see this as a blessing disguised as a curse. You've avoided shitty mods.
In case anyone is interested, here is an alternative.
- There is an absolutely massive history of polandball comics that are only on /r/polandball, though. Some were pretty good.
  
  If one were to keep things really legally correct, it'd be nice to get the original submitter's approval to repost them here, and maybe this time around establish that on Polandball@kbin.social that the stuff that gets submitted has to be a Creative Commons license or something like that, so that if something like this happens again they can be reposted.

  Perhaps someone could scrape the content into new communities.
