Is it fair that an anonymous mod can permanently ban you from a 200,000-member community without ever showing their username? Last month I got a 7-day mute on a subreddit I'd posted in for four years, and the only explanation was "rule 3" — no link, no quote, no mod name. I appealed twice and never heard back. I understand why mods hide behind anonymous accounts; I've seen the harassment threads that follow a single ban decision. But I also watched a friend get banned for replying to a troll, while the troll stayed up for another day. Where's the line between protecting moderators and letting them dodge accountability?
