How the fuck did you manage to get banned from /lit/?

you can get banned for making putrid bait threads (with no relation to literature) or posting nsfw content

>> No.9277505

I get banned for posting anything. I bet this post will get me banned if even a single one of you reports it. the mods hold a grudge against me since I consistently BTFO them and fuck their crush irl. OP will probably not get banned for his shitpost however.

you have to go back

There's no discussion on Reddit. Post after post with no comments.

That book was amazing!!!

my favorite part of DFW's "new sincerity" was when he finally admitted to himself and the world that his whole life was a big fucking joke. nothing was true, he had lived a lie. so he did the one sincere thing in his life and killed himself.

I wish his fanboys would follow his lead

The level of discourse here is pretty shit but at least it's about valuable things instead of talking politely about nothing at all with people that agree with 99% of what you say anyways, that's what usually happens on reddit

I came here from reddit and confirm its 100% accurate for the literature subreddits. And we all know the story about creative writing criticism there
