I don't have a tremendous amount of followers, and I post all my cards to my profile anyways, but I thought I would share this interaction with the mod there, named Intact, who banned me for very odd reasons. And then mocked me? I don't get it. It's surreal. But it's fine because I've already been distancing myself from Reddit. And r/custommagic is not a great place to be overwhelmed by great designs. Honestly, it's the real game that has the most exciting designs. I spend more time proofreading and explaining basic concepts on there than seeing anything really wow-worthy.

Anyways, I am an honest, sometimes brutally hoenst, snarky person. I'm frank, and curt. And the people who 'get that' understand what I'm trying to do. The people who have their 'feelings hurt' should talk to me first rather than run to a mod. If I say something stupid, and someone calls me out on it, I own it. I expect other people to be like me in this regard. I don't try to avoid hurting people's feelings or be overly tactful. That's valuable to people. You know when I like something, I truly like it. If you need feedback, real feedback, you know I'll provide it.

Snark goes hand-in-hand with Reddit. It is by no means a violation of Reddiquette. My top posts are snark ones. In fact, my top top post with just shy of 1000 upvotes is a snarky post on the custom magic subreddit itself. No ban there.

My original ban, that he refers to? A complete farce. No one was offended. They were banning people in that thread for 'brigading' from mtg circle jerk.  

Here is the original thread: [https://www.reddit.com/r/custommagic/comments/1ck71qv/day\_80281\_of\_making\_a\_commander\_for\_every/](https://www.reddit.com/r/custommagic/comments/1ck71qv/day_80281_of_making_a_commander_for_every/)

And the cirlcejerking post: [https://www.reddit.com/r/magicthecirclejerking/comments/1cknkh2/how\_can\_i\_unfuck\_my\_eyes/](https://www.reddit.com/r/magicthecirclejerking/comments/1cknkh2/how_can_i_unfuck_my_eyes/)

I'm trying to find the post by Intact where he said he was banning people for 'brigading' and that it was a frequent problem w/ bad custom magic cards that were cross posted to MTCJ. It might have been under a different cross post. Either way, there's an image of him referring to it as brigading.

I'm simply not sure why this guy has it out for me. It's weird. And then they go on to mock me after making me 'eat' a 365 day ban. And "lol" rather than let the other mods review.   
  
I reached out and apologized to the offended user. That's the correct way to handle this. Not a 365 day ban. My first ban was unwarranted. So at worst this should be a 7 day ban.

Thanks for reading.
