Why do you keep insisting on talking about shadow-banned?

Yes, the factory reset was a genius move

So why is my account still up and running after doing that?

They've already explained it to you. Having one account is fine, but when you need to create not hundreds, but even just dozens to work, your system collapses. Sorry, but we're not talking about playing with just one account here.

Yes that's also the reason we stopped buying ourself blank aged accounts since all accounts from many sellers we tested got instantly suspension or shadow banned on the first comment.
Wasted a lot of money and each seller claiming theirs are good legit ones

This is the post where I was talking about it, and in response, I got two requests asking where I can get old accounts.

The only accounts I’m seeing working, old and new, are the ones with comments, and I only know one supplier who occasionally has some. What kind of crazy person would add a comment to an old account to sell it to you, risking a 90% chance of a ban?

While I'd like to believe OP, how is it that I'm using anti-detect browser and a premium residential proxy with 0 fraud score (and never been used before), warmed it up by scrolling around and not commenting for over 24 hours, then no shadowban UNTIL I comment like twice then instant suspension/shadowban?

Residential proxy? Check.
Waiting before commenting? Check.
Anti-detect browser? Check.
Multiple anti-detect browsers tested? Check,

It seems like the only solution here is mobile proxies and testing that as a last resort or just getting "lucky" by spending $15 each time for premium residential proxies that keep getting shadowbanned after warming them up then posting the first comment.

If you search the forum, not long ago Tonice posted a picture of his accounts showing that they started commenting on the same day they were created. If yours are getting banned, change your proxy or find a way

high probably proxies but there is a also another factor which could cause trouble to a specific group which is not talked here on bhw which leads to very high suspension rate

Apparently it seems like Reddit shadowbans even if you're using your real IP address and no VPN/proxy at all. I was creating a new account for a specific purpose of a subreddit. I did not use a bot. It was all manual posting. Yet after 1 post, it got shadowbanned. The account even waited a few days after creation and gained a bit of comment karma.

I've noticed that all it takes is just 1 removed post for an account to get shadowbanned. So be warned that it's not just whether you use a proper IP or activity. Even a post by an actual human can trigger shadow ban.

Same, i had my main reddit account get banned and i just use it to view reddit and save posts no nsfw posts, nor proxies nothing, and still got hit with the hammer.
