Please stop responding to Rage Bait comments and Troll comments. Report them.
- In the last 7 days, Reddit has removed 992 comments on this subreddit.
Almost all of these comments were removed by Reddit for "harassment". I have no way of knowing how many people Reddit has banned from the platform, but I suspect it has been quite a few.
We have a rule here about "Responding to trolls". The reason for this rule is to protect you from putting your Reddit account at risk. Don't respond. Report.
Reddit doesn't look at context. They only look at what you say. That being said, "I was only defending myself" is not a valid excuse. Reddit doesn't care.
Furthermore, Reddit removes your comment as soon as you hit the "post" button. So, your clever retorts are not seen by anyone.
The moderators of this subreddit are banning these Rage Baiters and Trolls as fast as we can. But we can't do anything to protect you if you're responding to them.
Be smart.
