    But we’ve actually not been told we violated any specific harassment policy – just that some people complained.

    So, what’s the problem? Are the Reddit admins demanding something of you?

      They imposed a restriction that now disallows anybody in the sub to reference ANY content on any other subreddit. This has made it difficult for us to use citations as evidence when discussing things - we’ve amassed a nice library of articles and references we use that now we’re prohibited from referencing. It’s a rather draconian restriction that was done with no notice. Probably a sign of things to come.
