question is: what did you write in your manual report to the admins?
I don't think you can/will get banned for simply doing a "hey mods" within the sub itself, you only run into issues if you go to reddit.com/report and type something in the box that the trannies don't like.
I didn't manually report anything.
Just reported a comment using the standard report buttons.
Moderators of a subreddit can take an item that has been removed from their subreddit and appeal it to the admins of Reddit and have the reporters banned. Which is what happened here, but this is a clear abuse of the system and not what it is designed to do.
It was designed to stop mass brigading and bot reporting not to punish wrong-think.
so you did the "report" only to the sub's mods, not even to the admins? that's weird, it must be a special setup that particular sub has with the admins to ban for correct reports from "outsiders" but then again, how would the mods of that sub know you were an outsider when sub mods can't see who the reporter is?
Check my reply to your other comment, I sorta try to break it down from the mod side there.
The admins frequently check certain subs especially those where trannies are mentioned negatively or positively. Obviously for different reasons
