Reddit needs to do the same for reddit site-wide bans!

I agree. It's not fair to users to get shadowbanned without receiving any kind of message telling them. I end up trying to explain it to some of them, but they blame me because they don't understand. Reddit should just suspend them with a message explaining why they've been suspended. What's the point of shadowbanning them rather than suspending them? Shadowbanning is cruel, and it makes more work for mods because the shadowbanned user doesn't know, so they continue posting and commenting and that clutters up the modqueue.
