i was just checking the Top contributors on a few subreddits where i used to hangout. Top contributors are banned by Reddit's AI. But why? when you become top contributor, there are many people who will report you, but there is no system for reporting someone for "good work". Users with 100s of highly upvoted posts with 10s of thousands of karma, all their content gone! I had bookmarked some of the content. As a result in Reddit, many top contributors across many subreddit have been banned by Reddit's AI. what's interesting is, i DMed those subreddit Mods and asked them, why X who is top contributor is banned and those Mods told me they don't want him banned but reddit simply deleted all posts from that user and they can do nothing about it! Imagine, subreddit specific mods setting a user as "approved user" only to have Reddit ban and delete all of their post. I wish someone comes up with a Reddit alternative where content is owned by users and not "reddit" and banning someone requires a proper procedure, not just because Reddit Site Wide Mods did not like their content.
