Early last year I promised myself I would delete all of my accounts and leave reddit for good the day they launched their IPO. I'm a few hours early but both of my accounts are now officially deleted.

-fuck u/spez

When people shifted over to here last summer I remember issue with comments and accounts being un-deleted, or changed back to what they were. I don’t know if that’s still happening but the archive still has both your accounts and all content.

now-a-days if you hurt someones feelings they ban you if you go to r/reddit there is a mention of a user (by name) who got banned for saying Wesley Crusher [a ficional character] is a soy-boy

If they keep banning people for shit like this, they won't have any customers. And the character was a soy-boy.
