Last time I checked only one of my comments had been removed recently and it was by automod. u/bobbobbybob that's not nefarious 99% of the time, automod is pretty simple, it has certain rules that are set that trigger actions like removal of a post, but it's not very "smart," its capabilities are pretty limited.

It can be annoying as shit but typical triggers are saying a certain keyword or account age and karma.

when I posted the comments, way back, they were fine. Big long threads of discussion.

Now, my post history is almost empty. There's a couple that have been 'manually approved', and a few that haven't been deleted, but are parts of threads that have had the root comments deleted.

I'd been on reddit a long time, I had high karma, but the only crime I'm aware of is posting in t_d and telling trannies that their penises made them male.

The removed comments are site wide.

they purged me

Hallelujah! You have been purged of your sins! Praise /u/Jesus!!!
