来自Reddit的关于已删除账户的年龄验证邮件
我刚刚在Reddit上经历了一件奇怪的事情。
我曾经有一个账户。
我下载了我的数据,使用一个机器人将所有帖子替换为随机句子(因为Reddit不允许你删除帖子,但你可以编辑,所以我选择了这种方式),然后删除了账户。这是两三年前的事了。
今天我收到了Reddit发来的邮件,告诉我我的账户可能未满年龄,他们需要进行年龄验证。
我进入账户恢复,输入了用户名,收到了重置密码的邮件,结果我又回到了我的账户里。
该账户被标记为“永久禁用”。
然后我再次删除了这个账户,按照永久账户删除的所有程序和文本要求进行了操作。
Reddit在说“删除”时似乎在误导用户,实际上只是更改了账户状态。

I just had a peculiar experience with Reddit.<p>I had an account.<p>I downloaded my data, used a bot to replace all posts with random sentences (Reddit won't let you delete, but you can edit, so this is what you do), then deleted the account. This was a good two or three years ago.<p>Today I received an email from Reddit telling me my account may be under-age and they will require age verification.<p>I went to account recovery, entered the username, received an email to reset the password and lo and behold, I was back in my account.<p>The account was marked as "permanently banned".<p>I then deleted the account again, with all the procedural and textual paraphernalia of permanent account deletion.<p>Reddit when they say "delete" they would seem to be misleading users, and changing only the account status.
