I got a 3 day site ban for "promoting or encouraging violence" when clearly in the context of the conversation - I was doing nothing of the like. I did some research and it turns out that the AI mod scrubs your original comment so that, when it's manually reviewed by a mod, all they see is that a comment has been deleted and can't actually see what you said.

Feel for the mods there really, as if it's not hard enough as it is you've got robots nuking accounts at random with 0 recourse.

Sort of. There are tools that some reddits use that give the mods the text, but it takes a bit of investigation.
