I've been perma-banned from reddit a bunch and I eventually just got tired of making new accounts lol.

heheh they use some kind of fingerprinting, a combination of your OS, ISP IP, and browser. At some point you can't keep creating new accounts.

Funny thing is, I'm pretty sure I used an encrypted email to make my last account

All your encrypted email does is make it hard for someone to read your email. It doesn't stop all the metadata.
