Reply to comment by clarenceisacat in Snow! by Vermontnewengland

I think they were banned. They commented some really nasty shit on a photo of my dog and it was incredibly discouraging. When I click on their name it says ‘no one goes by that name on reddit’ and lists the comment as written by ‘deleted’.

I replied to (I think the same person you’re talking about?) calling them out and they either blocked me, deleted their account, or were banned. But I’m seeing more people shitting on dog posts. I’m ALL HERE for the dog posts! Who doesn’t wanna see cute dogs to make their day better? Ummm excuse me though… Vermont dogs haha 😉

That's terrible. I'm sorry they made you feel bad. I think everyone else really likes the dog pictures.

Don't let wet blankets like that discourage you from posting pictures of your pup!

Thank you for the encouragement! I wasn’t really sure if I should have posted it after because they complained it wasn’t on topic.

It was super on topic, and we love the dog posts.

I would pay them no mind. If you want to post a picture of your dog frolicking in the Vermont snow, go for it.

Sounds like they blocked you as it takes a bit to get banned from /Vermont

Aaah I see. I’m very new to reddit. What a debbie downer, commenting something like that and blocking me before I can reply. Wimp.

That is the Reddit way. Make a comment, then block the users so they can’t respond. You will quickly find Reddit is full of conformation bias and groupthink. Please don’t let it be anything more than entertainment. Enjoy.

I got the block from this person the other day. I wondered why they immediately deleted their comment and then their account after I replied to them
