It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this.

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Reddit won't even let me make a new account, I get insta banned the moment I do agony-deep you piss off the wrong mods. It's kinda good though, I avoid that hellsite now

Step 1 is to use a different browser than when you were banned. Step 2 is to use a fake email address to activate the account. https://temp-mail.org/en/ I found that when i didnt use an email, i was shadowbanned fast but if you use an email it seems to get around it.

Pretty sure it's a hardware ID ban, if I make a new account and log in on any of my devices I'm instantly banned without posting

It's easy to make a new browser fingerprint. Websites don't have access to your actual hardware ID (and even that can be changed).

They shadowbanned me when I joined, but when I appealed and mentioned that I'm just using a VPN and not ban-evading, they lifted it. I'm one of the lucky ones, I'm sure they've denied appeals of lots of people who were in my situation

Same forgot my password after they got rid of third party apps so tried to make a new one and it got banned within 24 hours for ban evasion because id previously been banned from worldnews for saying giving unlimited military aid to proud self avowed nazis was bad.

I was banned for spreading misinformation.
