Buying Reddit Accounts: My Opinion

[HkC2]

I've been using only rotating residential IPs for the past 3 months, and my number of bans isn't that high
If you have 1 to 10 accounts, you can afford to use static proxies. However, a good static proxy costs between $3 and $5, so with 100 accounts like I have, it becomes impractical.

I have 10 rotating IP strings set to change every 10 minutes, so I use an account for 10 minutes, switch accounts, and get a new IP. I can't tell you if static IPs are better than rotating IPs; opinions on the forum are mixed. Personally, I believe that if you have a good rotating proxy, it’s essentially the same as having a static proxy. The main difference is that with static IPs, you log into the account daily, whereas with rotating IPs, you log in every 2-3 days.

He is right about this. I have managed hundreds of accounts. Rotating proxies will keep accounts safe. You still might get some small bans. Most of the time it might be the way you used the account or the creation IP was bad. The number of bans are small if you do it properly.

One issue with rotating proxies is that the quality of the IP address can vary. When the IP rotates, you might get one with a fraud score of 20 or another with a score of 100.

Another problem is that even if you set geo-targeting for a specific city, sometimes the IPs come from a completely different location. If you have a few accounts and your script uses the same account to comment within a short timeframe, a proxy from a different city could raise a flag.

Un problema con i proxy rotanti è che la qualità dell'indirizzo IP può variare. Quando l'IP ruota, potresti ottenerne uno con un punteggio di frode di 20 o un altro con un punteggio di 100.

It depends on the quality

Un altro problema è che anche se imposti il geo-targeting per una città specifica, a volte gli IP provengono da una posizione completamente diversa. Se hai alcuni account e il tuo script usa lo stesso account per commentare in un breve lasso di tempo, un proxy da una città diversa potrebbe far scattare un flag.

4g proxy ) should we target a specific city like NY and get ips from it when the ip rotates, or target an asn like ATT and get ips from all arround the us
for instagram and tiktok , and iv heard that most of people here use us sim card , i just want to know did u use airplane mode on or off based on your experience and knowledge

My advice is to use rotating residential proxies and avoid spamming. I’m confident that this approach will work well for you too

Are rotating 5g proxies acceptable? (there has been a lot of debate)

you guys target by city or asn for instagram and toktok

Personally, I believe that rotating mobile proxies are the best option. Honestly, I'm not convinced by the choice of ASN proxies, because it implies that you're always in the same location and never move around

new accounts are fine.we have about a 1/3 banning rate within 6 months.However this is mostly caused by subreddit mods who remove post do to rules violaten,duplicate content etc.
Mods are checking now more intensive expecially at posts which are trending.Small gainer accounts mostly fly under the radar and it also various from subreddit to subreddit

 

[Valentin2]

Why would you say to use rotating residential proxies and not mobile proxies?

 

[thereisnowinter]

Let me explain: you didn't realize that his only interest was self-promotion. One IP per account with a dedicated static IP costs $3 a month, but that doesn’t mean it hasn't been flagged by Reddit (you’ll face the same issue even with rotating proxies). I tried using static IPs, but I ended up spending over $300, and as I mentioned, the accounts still got banned. It all depends on how many Reddit accounts you need to manage.
Secondly, ask yourself this: a regular Reddit user accesses their account at work, at home, and while on the go. How many IPs do they switch in a month? If you use a static IP, it means you're only using it from home, which isn’t necessarily bad, but in my opinion, it doesn’t seem natural.

I somewhat agree with your view, but I still need to test it. Currently, I've bought many accounts, possibly with Indian IPs, but I'm using a U.S. proxy. Of course, I post a lot of comments daily, not ads, and many get banned within a day or two.

In my experience...

Reddit does not appear to put much weight on IP addresses. Now, don't misunderstand me -- using a clean proxy is still a great idea and will help you in the long run, no doubt.

However, I have been banned from Reddit before. And in no instance was my IP address taken into consideration. I have had accounts banned and I logged out, made a new account, and logged in with it on the same IP and on the same browser. And Reddit made no attempt to stop me.

There have been other instances when I was banned, submitted a ban appeal, was denied and the account sat there for six months before mysteriously restoring itself. No explanation was given. I even contacted admins (cheeky bastard that I am) and asked them why my account had been unbanned. They claimed they did not know. They claimed to have no record of it.

This is not to say that this is any measure of their total capability, only that it lends me to believe that there are different groups within Reddit administration that have a very different list of priorities. Each group appears to have different powers of moderation and different levels of access to information. A user accused of spamming is going to be referred to a different admin team than a user accused of brigading.

With that said, I propose that Reddit often turns a blind eye to botters because at their core, Reddit wants them. They want the traffic. They want the userbase. They want to make it easy for people to give them artificial traffic. It makes their numbers look good -- and that makes their stakeholders happy.

They have security in place. True.

However, I suspect that much of it is automated. And I suspect that much of it is designed to thwart people who make them look bad. So long as your bots look like genuine users and do not openly break TOS, I theorize that Reddit will do the bare minimum to stop you.

You've made some good points.

However, reddit made some changes in May and they now look at IPs more closely. IPs (like VPNs) that have been overly abused can get you permanently shadow banned.

Also, account age and karma doesn't give a free pass like before. There are more algorithms to beat now and it has succeeded in putting a lot of people out.

Hi @lucax3 ,
I'm considering selling my Reddit account, created on January 12, 2020. It has accumulated 298,696 post karma and 143,508 comment karma, with a history of activity primarily in r/android, r/memes, and r/sportsbook. I'm curious what a reasonable asking price would be. I'm writing it here because I genuinely don't know where else to post. Please send me a dm or a reply if you're interested.

Honestly, I can't say for sure. I buy Reddit accounts aged 1 to 3 months with 50–300 comment karma, and they do the job I need.

If you want to buy or if you know someone who's willing, please let me know. It's my personal account. I'll hand it over without any hassle.

Hi everyone, I’ve been buying Reddit accounts for about 3 years now. Until February-March 2024, every account was solid, but then Reddit declared war on bots, and that’s when the problems began.
What I’m about to share is based on my experience, and with the help of an online guide, I’ve been getting great results. I decided to write this post because I’ve seen a lot of conflicting opinions, many of which don’t align with my own experience.

Personally, I consider the best accounts to be those aged 1 to 3 months. Older accounts are much harder to manage. Ideally, they should have at least 100 karma, preferably comment karma rather than post karma.

IP geolocation has nothing to do with it! Think about it: I buy an account with a U.S. IP, but where in the U.S.? Or what if I go on vacation—does that mean I can’t use my Reddit account? Trust me, the tricks lie elsewhere.

Important Things to Do—or Rather, What I Do
The accounts I purchase have visible comment karma and history. I usually check the account and wait 2 or 3 days before logging in. When I finally log in, I spend a couple of days browsing Reddit, pretending to read and avoiding any interactions.
I use the accounts to post links in comments, and I try to be as natural as possible. I usually wait about 3 days before posting my first comment without any links, then I edit it later. I make sure not to post more than two comments per week

My advice is to use rotating residential proxies and avoid spamming. I’m confident that this approach will work well for you too

I hope this post has been helpful.

It is very useful Post for regular buyers of reddit accounts. One advice I have is to buy from sellers on BHW, their service is already tested by mods.
