View submission: The NewToReddit Encyclopaedia Redditica v2
Also known as Suspended. A ban from a Subreddit or sitewide that is permanent. Mods can permaban you from their subs but only Admin can permaban you sitewide from Reddit.
There is a school of thought that Permanent bans on Reddit aren’t truly permanent[1] but they are only valid for around 100 days as this is how long Reddit keeps your information on file for after logging in for the last time.

This page from the Reddit privacy policy[2] appears to confirm this theory in the section “Information We Collect Automatically”, but if you read it carefully, it says: **”Except for the IP address used to create your account**, Reddit will delete any IP addresses collected after 100 days.”

There really is a lot of confusion[3] over how Reddit permanently suspends a user and about what can be done[4] if it happens, but ultimately only Admin know how it’s done and I haven’t been able to find any Admin comment on this whatsoever, so it’s staying secret.

As ageeing to the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy is essentially signing a legal binding contract with Reddit, may I suggest you familiarise yourself with it once again:
