I reported a way to see which moderators are banning you/muting you when the messages are sent anonymously from the subreddit via mod mail quite some time ago. I got an email back from reddit security thanking me but I never got any award for it. Was it not meaningful enough? The trick was still around months after me reporting the problem.

It sounds petty, but I just like trophies and would appreciate what constitutes a “meaningful contribution” so I can try and get it in the future.

The most recent receiver of the White Hat had their account suspended. I feel like there’s some irony in that

The caps make it 10x better.

I feel like the fact they typed this in all caps because the user asked them to ���yell me something” is being overlooked...
