I've got two DM's from reddit Bitcoin moderators after I posted comment on one of the posts titled: Bitcoin is protection from your government.And also got banned and comment removed, this was my comment: Bitcoin is a surveillance coin, a wet dream of the government - a fully transparent database of transactions Not once did I mention Monero and this is what I've got: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.postimg.cc%2F4yBSC3MD%2F1.jpg&t=665&c=1k5WwrhM_21VKg) They are very insecure, Hilarious. I agree there is illegal mining going on but so is in Bitcoin, with stolen hardware and stolen electricity as police catch them from time to time. So it's a funny argument.

These moderators seem very biased are they supposed to be talking this way? Lol.
Reddit needs to closely monitor their moderators as well. Moderators are not reddit employees and most of the time just do whatever they want to do inside that community. I think it’s very harsh to be immediately banned permanently unless you don’t have the cleanest track record. A warning or a suspension for a couple of days would have been enough of a lesson.

This was my first and only comment on /r/Bitcoin and my account never had any issues.
People say it's a common thing there.
You are only allowed to smile or they ban you, like in North Korea.

Classic Reddit. Mod behaviour varies wildly across subreddits, I wasn't aware that r/Bitcoin is one of the trigger happy ones that immediately hand out lifetime bans. Then again I haven't been on there for a long time and I feel like the sub's quality has strongly declined over the last few years. I wouldn't be surprised if part of the reason is mods smothering the community. It's gotten to the point where I check r/Cryptocurrency over r/Bitcoin to see what's happening.

I was honestly never active in reddit as I feel like it is just full of trolls and are often visited even by people not that knowledgeable with the topic. It also has been a running joke where no one basically takes reddit serious as it is full of weirdos of the internet community. If they continue like this how do they expect for any kind of discussion to flourish over there.

The first thing i suspect is if the quoted aspect was the only comment you made or there is more that is not included on the one you quoted, secondly, it might be that from what you said is what makes them reacted that way, knowing fully that governments are not even in support for bitcoin, so it's not a currency that government really accept for its adoption like, while some were already struggling hard to see that its banned.

I remember Bitcoin subreddit receive many censorship accusation many years ago, although it seems to be true today. Anyway, it's crazy this forum doesn't ban known scammer, while that subreddit seems to ban those who critic Bitcoin.

Yikes that moderator is in a power trip and thinks they are in god mode. I don't necessarily agree with your comment 100%, but to jump to huge assumptions about you supporting shitcoins based on what you've said is insane. Also regardless, they shouldn't be banning anyone that disagrees with them, freedom of discussion with differing opinions is very important.

Exactly, all I wanted is to trigger discussion and have fun fighting arguments with fellow crypto people. Discussions like this are educating if both sides are open minded and I always admit I'm wrong when I'm out of arguments.

This should make us thankful that we have an administrator on this website that allows all discussion, within reasonable limits.
A lot of communities end up becoming echo chambers if comments that dissent from the administrators opinion are always deleted.

I agree there is illegal mining going on but so is in Bitcoin, with stolen hardware and stolen electricity as police catch them from time to time. So it's a funny argument. In general, if you made publications from a new account or the account has a low rating, then this happens all the time, and regardless of the content of the text, the text is deleted and the account is banned. Moderators always cite violations of community rules, but as a result, these are excuses not to correct the mistakes.

To be fair, I see new accounts post random things on this forum and I report it. I see unfamiliar comments on self-moderated threads, I generally have to convince myself not to delete. Your comment on this forum would invite similar backlash (though not outright banning... yet?).
It's less about censorship than about cultivating constructive commenting. Threads can easily turn into megaspamthreads. That said, the mod's comments to you seems to be more about the former.
P.S. I like Monero too, if only with a fraction of the like I have for Bitcoin.

I can see plenty of new accounts talking there no problem, so the ban was not solely because of being new but because reddit moderators didn't like my comment, stalked my account and didn't like the fact that I participated in other projects.
They felt personally threatened, that's why I wrote they must be insecure and probably shouldn't be moderating at all.

Let's fight! You're wrong. Knowing all transactions is not the same as knowing who made them.

The sub is moderated as they have their forum politics. I remember someone posted a meme photo about CSW, that user got negative karma. There is a limit to freedom of speech they say, I guess they categorized what you said as just one of the limits. So they are serious when the sub says Bitcoin then maybe its really just for BTC.

Reddit moderators are like that, most of them do not accept criticism and opinions that are contrary to what they believe. Luckily, our forum can still be said to be quite democratic, where you can still say what you want to say without any discrimination from the moderators. Even when your post directly criticizes Bitcoin, the moderators will let it slide, the most the OP will get is a rebuttal from other users, which is very normal in forums. And forums should run like this, especially when it comes to Bitcoin, which should be more open and democratic for everyone.

Yes, you're ticking that the moderators on Reddit think they're too big. If there is a slight difference in their opinion, they ban him. Freedom to discuss different opinions is very important, but it is not possible because they do not agree to discuss freely. Exactly, all I wanted is to trigger discussion and have fun fighting arguments with fellow crypto people. Discussions like this are educating if both sides are open minded and I always admit I'm wrong when I'm out of arguments.
Discussing with people who know about crypto is good learning, but dear brother, you need to be in the right place, Karan. It's not possible on Reddit. They do everything their way. I like your discussion on this forum very much. Here, everyone can have an open-minded discussion about helpful crypto. Ask the set if you need help understanding something, and the experts will explain it nicely.

The fact that this post is not deleted and I am not banned is a testimony of free speech here. Moderators and the community here is very open and does not act like a religious cult as oppose to reddit. Keep it up my friends, a good project is 50% development 50% community (at least for me). I never support projects with toxic community even if I know I could make more money, the same way as I don't visit stores with rude clerks.

To be fair theymos is one of the admin of r/Bitcoin too. And IMHO r/Bitcoin admins are doing bad as they hire drama-queens as mods/keep them once hired. So theymos is directly or indirectly one of the cause of this shit. r/Bitcoin is a shitty place, badly moderated. I think this subreddit is just failing as most of people are going to post in r/btc (which is bch fanboys subreddit) because of nazi moderation. People comes to talk about BTC and finish on a BCH subreddit ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif)
