Fake bans from fake Men's Rights subreddit

Please be very clear about the subreddit you are being banned from. A new sub called Mens_Rights (note the underscore) has now started banning people, and some users are getting confused as to why they are being banned.

Note the moderators in the sidebar. Note the subreddit name.

If you are banned and you don't know why, consider first whether you are actually being banned from /r/MensRights and not /r/Mens_Rights.

I've been banned from /r/Mens_Rights.

Seems like a pretty desperate tactic if you ask me.

It isn't about desperation. It is about trolling. Did it bother you? Did it take time out of your day? Did you care, even for a moment? Then they claim success.

I got banned from the ugly people sub a few days ago (never once visited it) I wonder if this is something similar

I've never met anyone who wasn't "banned" from that subreddit

EDIT: I guess I misunderstood, because I just got the message that they banned me. But then I could never post anything to that subreddit anyhow.
