I didn't believe people at first, but once I started seeing harmless posts of my get locked which comparatively I've posted far worse in the past and never got a glance. Lately I very much felt like they were just watching me to justify a ban, possibly even perma ban.

It was always the same mod too, "WhiteMagic". Odd that no matter what I posted, the same mod was always assigned to my content.

I was far more vocal in PMs to others. A good while ago there was a member that got banned and strongly suspected they were following his PMs to other members. Others have suggested, when it comes to refunds, that they may investigate your Reddit post history if they figure out which account is yours.

These are all speculations, but wouldn't surprise me. The public outcry would be huge though if they could prove mods were reading your PMs and blacklisting ppl just waiting for them to slip enough to justify a perma-ban if they can't whip them back inline.

The last two months of posting I was extremely careful not to break any rules and word public statements in a way that didn't 100% agree with the critic view, but my position could be easily deduced.

They've also branched out their mods too, they are now starting to heavily moderate Concierge where could you always get away with anything. Generally the whales were pretty happy, but lately even the whales are starting to protest and grumble among each other. Now posts are getting locked, moved, and edited.
