I was banned from Blind the same day I received “Top Contributor.” AMA.
My account was suspended for 1 week. later that day I received a notification saying I was a “Top Contributor.” Ask me anything! TC 200K | YOE 6

If this isn’t entertaining, I also play the violin. I’m quite good.
I think we should ban you again just for this post. 😜. Just kidding. Not. 😒
Please don’t. The folks at Hacker News are entertaining for a bit, but their low TC posts are depressing after a while.
Amen to that mate. 🤣
Did you get banned for a thought crime?
I think it was more for expressing my thoughts. I should have just kept the thoughts in my head! Why have an open dialogue?
OP... right thought; right action. I hope you have learned your lesson and will punish yourself for aberrant thoughts before you write them down and offend.
Whats your TC?
TC 200K
See, it’s been too long! I already forgot. Post updated.
I made a new account and got TC in less than a month including being banned for 5 days. So I guess my question to you is why aren't you as cool as me?
I should have made a new account...I have a Microsoft email after all. I don’t know why I’m not as cool as you. Can you teach me? 😐
It's easy..create an alias account and register with that (I remember doing it while I was at Microsoft since I didn't like my username. It was just as simple as opening an IT ticket)
Shit happens. Some blind subcommunities are biased or too sensitive. A few weeks ago I got banned for responding to a female post who said men are stupid. Apparently some feminists didn't find my comments funny. It's actually a good thing. The ban gave me some downtime from checking blind, which increased my productivity.
I tried to get my fix elsewhere. I went to Gab because I knew they can’t ban me, but hardly anyone there is in tech. Then I went to y combinator’s hacker news, but they don’t know how to Leet. I ended up eating a lot of chocolate and gaining weight. 😥
Maybe you should go to a rehab for blind addiction
Please share the juicy deets of your heinous and sickening crime, OP.
I posted something mean and distasteful about a certain anti-American shoe company. (Which I won’t repeat for obvious reasons). I guess I’ve developed a sincere dislike for this company. What I wrote was pretty awful. I probably deserved to be suspended.
