Yep. Post something against the status quo, and unless you're lucky enough to get enough legit upvotes for having provided actual content or information, you're just about guaranteed to be downvoted to oblivion, with the usual circular arguments posted as a response to anything you try to say.

Call it a hunch, the mods (or at least one, anyway) of r/gameofthrones were told by the media that any mention of the leaked episodes is to be eliminated by any means necessary.

It's a bit of a tinfoil theory but I do think you're right to a point. They certainly suck up to HBO a whooole lot, that's for sure. They must be one of the biggest forums for GoT on the web?

Possibly. At almost half a million subscribers, there's a looooot of incentive for HBO to want to avoid all of them knowing about the leaked episodes.

A bit tinfoily, but the same can be argued about any complaint against big business.

We fled to a new home /r/piratesofthrones .

Also watch /r/thefreefolk . It's currently inactive but may become the main sub in the future. Btw, does Voat have a Thrones related subverse yet?

Yep I went on /r/piratesofthrones too but that was before I knew that it was an open zone with spoilers open for EVERYTHING including all the books. So I filtered it for now - I really don't want to risk running into a spoiler from the book.

I don't think there's a GoT subverse on here, nope. Not sure this place is big enough to make subverses for individual television shows just yet.

Am I reading this right? The mod of /r/gameofthrones banned /u/gameofthrones???

no you were not reading it right. No mention of /u/gameofthrones. There is reference to /r/gameofthrones being recipient of a message from the op. Perhaps this confused you.

I got shadowbanned for no reason. The last comment I had made that received upvotes was debunking the wage gap myth.

Just deleted the account. not going back.

Yeah, a lot of the moderators on reddit are assholes. This is why we're here. One time I got banned from /r/tattoos because I said I didn't like someone's tattoo. Not in a rude way. It was more like an art critique. But the dickwad moderator banned. Well, fuck him. I don't care anymore.

Haha, yeah there sure are a lot of ugly pieces on that sub. And yeah, I don't really care either about being banned but it's just kind of hilarious in a sad way. Sad that mods are on those powertrips.

I got banned from tattoos too for saying I dislike a certain tattoo.
