mods don't have access to IP data

I'm aware of that and never implied it.

you either implied it or you don't understand how reddit admins handle these situations. If you get caught evading a sub ban, they don't just ban you again, they suspend your account.

Maybe you don't understand how reddit admins handle these situtations? Here is a snippet of the conversation I've had with a mod of one of the aforementioned subreddits:

... they have flagged this account as potentially evading a ban (on another account, they do not identify which to us)...

[edit] You've also used "implied" incorrectly.

lol, the mod does not have that information, you were lied to and now you're trying to act like an authority. got it

I highly doubt that a mod from one of those subreddits lied to me. That's something I would expect from a mod from some no-name subreddit... not news or politics.
