I Got permanently banned from a subreddit I liked ,and was a long time member of because I accidentally reposted something that was already posted on there before. I tried to ask the mods about the perma ban but got no response

In particular, it’s just lazy to escalate to a permaban right away. Even if they have a rule against reposts, removing a post along with a warning not to do it again is sufficient to educate the vast majority of people there who may not have seen the rule and only did it for the first time.
But that would take a few extra minutes, I suppose, to check someone’s post history and see if they are a serial rule breaker. Much easier to just wield the ban-hammer then ignore.
Yeah, same here. Well said, I agree with you. It’s more fair to issue a temporary ban to and warn the users that their reposting too early
