I was wondering why the Reddit deals were no longer being shown here, especially the $1300 Dell PC with RTX3080+7700x.

It turns that bot was banned. I don’t think there’s any explanation available, guess bots are just not welcome in this instance?

Anyway, it was a great run, but guess Reddit couldn’t be replaced in the end.

    The bot has been unbanned.

    For some context as to why, there was something that was reported as spam (can’t remember the exact thing off the top of my head), and it looked like the community was unmoderated, with only the bot contributing, so it was banned.

    With the addition of the extra mods, etc, the bot should be fine! Sorry about that!

      Thank you! The bot will be the main poster of this sub, as manual entries will be rather difficult with timing of deals. There shouldn’t be many human posts. Thank you for the swift-reversal! :)

      Thank you for the explanation and swift reversal. I will work with the mods to implement a blacklist system.
