      I got a couple of temp bans, actually got the morons over there to reverse some because they were ridiculous, but it’s the best thing that ever happened to me.

      Fuck Reddit, it’s been a shithole ever since they decided to turn redditors into ad revenue. Nazi sympathizing corpo boot licking brown shirt friendly shithole WILL go down in flames like digg, and I’ll be standing by to watch and laugh.

      Got banned for saying that “Israelis should have Netanyahus head on a pike”

      If you ever wondered whether Israel has influence over reddit there’s that. I really dont see how this could be “advocating for violence” level of ban worthy offense.

      I’ve then tried the same message with other world leaders and no bans yet tho I’ve only tried a few so far. Maybe someone wants to donate some reddit accounts for this experiment.

    Don’t know if I was ever banned but I was definitely asked to leave a go kart track when I was about 10 or 11. It was a kids track with only a few karts to choose from but they weren’t even as far as performance went. I had picked one that turned out to be slower than one another boy chose, so he kept lapping me as we were driving around. I’ve always been very competitive so I was just getting madder and madder as this smug little shit kept passing me even though I was pedal to the metal, so I made a decision. One lap as he was just about to pass me I wrenched my steering wheel to the side and ran him off the track. I was, of course, spotted by an attendant who stopped me and brought me over to my very embarrassed parents then asked us all to leave. I don’t think the other kid was hurt, but I didn’t care enough at the time to check so he might have been.

    I’m banned from a local martial arts dojo. The soke always told the same stories about his teachers and also has a rule that he won’t teach anyone with a criminal record.

    I did some digging on one of his teachers and found that he killed someone in cold blood and took a plea that threw his teacher under the bus. His teacher was convicted of murder and the soke’s teacher was convicted of manslaughter for his role.

    I called him out for being a hypocrite because he won’t teach criminals, but has no problem being a student of a criminal.

    He sent me an email telling me that I was no longer welcome in his class.

        I’ll do my best to give a brief answer. Please know that I’m not your legal council, and my advice is limited to my experience (which may be different from your own).

        If you have a DUI from 10+ years ago, it is possible that your inimitability has been automatically lifted. If your DUI was more than 5+ years ago, you are eligible for a few methods of entry into Canada. You can apply for a “temporary residence permit”, which is as complicated as it sounds with forms and statements and an approval process. Another route is what Canada calls “criminal rehabilitation”, which is an evaluation process that unflags your ID and makes you indistinguishable from any other American.

        Keep in mind that the Canadian border is managed by people who want a smooth workday. Unless you give them a good reason, they’ll at least be disappointed to reject your admission. More than likely, they would have information to help you get certified to cross. That being said, if you have a strong history of DUI and show up at the border in a MAGA truck with a shitty disposition and no preparation whatsoever… they might unceremoniously tell you to have more respect for Canada (and the world, with your Republican jihad).

        Certain things may help you at the border. A license plate and residence in a northern border state might put you in an easy pass category. Preparedness goes a LONG way, even if you don’t have the latest trend in legal passes you are still dealing with human beings. Because we’re dealing with human beings, it deserves to be said that we’re in a colorized world and Canadians are just as prone to colorism when choosing who to admit. I recommend keeping this in mind if you aren’t privileged to pass in daily life, because you do still need to be extra extra ready to present yourself, my friends.

        Above all, after you get into Canada it is important to respect the road and avoid driving under the influence. Not only is this where your head should be at, but it is also the best way to ensure a continuation of the good relationship between yourself and Canada (and the United States with her closest sister, Canada). An incident in-country will result in penalties that could last a lifetime, and for good reason; you might get expelled, or you might become a resident of Canada’s legal system for a very long time. To say it plainly, if you act a fool on Canada’s roads you might see the same 10x5 patch of Canadian prison concrete for the next decade.

        Okay… that’s all I got.

        If you have a criminal record in your home country you’ll be denied entry into Canada. Even Donald Trump can’t enter Canada legally.

    currently working on getting banned on the rest of the reddit subs i frequen(ted).
    Does that count?

    This reminds me of an old cartoon; Old guy getting banned from the cemetary and rejoicing his new found imortality. Thought that was funny.

    I’ve been banned off of Line for the crime of doing literally nothing. I created an account before a trip to Japan so I could add Japanese people I already knew or might meet while there.

    I made the account without any significant issues, got the QR code to add a friend then got an unspecified error any time I tried to add them. I tried adding an official account with the same error. I looked it up and saw some suggestions about waiting a few days to try again so I did just that with the same results for any official account or my friends account. My brother made an account and tried to add our friend with the same results, then found that when using my QR code it said the account didn’t exist.

    After digging more into it and trying to figure out what was up with Line’s support directly all I could find was an FAQ that said if you got an unspecified error when adding someone then it means your account violated Terms of Service for sending illegal messages, harassing people, etc that type of stuff. Still have yet to figure out how exactly either of us did any of those things before we could send a single message, but I’m sure it’s a very good and logical reason which would surely also explain why Line doesn’t answer my tickets or emails. Surely.

      Happens to me with vpn. Ebay notoriously did the same thing and I have heavy suspicion it was vpn. I contacted support and they said I violated tos and they couldn’t tell me why and said a new account to evade the ban is also against TOS. So far, I haven’t had any more bans but I’ve had to make like 10 so far.

    A night club some where in the DC area. Apparently some people have fun at these places and it was extremely popular

    Anyway I was getting to know my cousin again after years of no contact, getting to know how toxic she was. We cut the line and brushed past the bouncer and walked around the club. As an average sized girl, she was more or less able to lose herself in the crowd. As a bigger guy just trying to stick with someone I knew in an unfamiliar place, I literally had a bouncer chasing me through the crowd, grabbing at me to try to drag me out. I am very much not a fighter, so consider myself extremely lucky we just got peacefully kicked out

    So Six Flags is apparently pretty ban happy. I’m not welcome in Magic Mountain anymore.

    In my early twenties circa 2004 we borrowed my mom’s mini van, loaded up 8 of us and drove over night to get to Magic Mountain as they were opening. So it starts with the fact that before we started running around, I’d already been awake for 24 hours.

    For whatever reason that day there was a large group that just kept cutting lines. “Excuse me, I’m trying to get up there to get my cousin off the ride.” But then they would group up and stay in line.

    So big guy in front of me has some kids with him. My girlfriend and I had split away from our main group. Medium dude with wife and 2 kids behind me all loudly complaining to each other about it, I finally had enough and figured I’d have back up, so I grip the hand rail on each side and will not let go when the next few try to pull it again.

    Cutter comes up with his wife or girlfriend and asks the same excuse, I refuse, he makes threats, anyone I thought was going to back me up suddenly examining their shoes. Dude swings at me and I easily duck it, but had to let go and he goes running ahead. My perceived back up offer excuses about not starting shit with their kids there, now with kids of my own I understand but back then I was really let down.

    We get to where there’s finally a ride operator, the guy that threw at me is getting on the coaster, I point him out for cutting and swinging. Eventually I get on the coaster and as it’s going up I see him getting escorted away by security. When the ride ends security is waiting for me too.

    “You’re out of here”

    “Why, all I did was attempt to block a cutter?”

    “He says you threw the first punch”

    “Check the cameras“

    “Doesn’t matter, policy says you’re both out and can’t come back”

    So I get a tour behind the scenes to the parking lot. Girlfriend has to use the chicken exit to collect the group since this is prior to the time when everyone has a phone in their pocket. I get told they’ll let me wait in the car for my group but after that, don’t come back.

    So yeah, I can’t go to Magic mountain anymore because cutters are also liars.

      Got love lawyers creating rules like this. Same as zero tolerance policies in school. Stand up for yourself? Can’t have that, you should just let assholes be assholes. What about punishment for them? Well we saw no legal liability so we did nothing (and we’re chicken shits who afraid they might leave a 1 star review)

    I was going to say Reddit, but then I realized you meant from some fun place. So no, I haven’t been banned from some place fun.
