Vote Manipulation

[ContactAronas]

I believe Reddit correctly identified the posts where I used vote manipulation.

How did they do that and is vote manipulation detected?

I mean it's not just one post that they detected, it is multiple. I wonder if my other account got shadowbanned for this.

I mean they can't perma ban, because you can manipulate someone's else posts but they know. Although, if you manipulate your posts a lot, it will be very suspicious.

Are you interacting with random posts also?

Their algorithm is pretty good in picking up patterns. Considering you're already using separate fingerprints and IPs, don't use other accounts to upvote just your posts, use them to engage with other posts to make them seem genuine accounts.

I mean, I did warm up my account got 2 days by posting a comment or upvoting, but on day 3 (if reddit achievements correct) I started posting. Almost all my posts are controversial and pro-trump.

I used the reddit app on iPhone for one account and brave browser for another. My reddit app account got shadowbanned while brave one 3 day ban.

I've seen posts get pulled even with just 10 manipulated upvotes, it's risky now.

This happens for two reasons:

You used another one of your own Reddit accounts to upvote posts on this account. In this scenario the two accounts would have been linked together by Reddit as having the same owner. Even one upvote from one linked account to another is considered vote manipulation.

The second scenario is that you're using an upvoting service and you sent multiple upvote orders to the multiple posts/comments on the same account. Most upvoting services rotate a pool of accounts every few hours so you have to be careful to only make one order per account every few hours.

Reddit’s vote system is one of the most heavily protected on the platform. You can game it for a while, but eventually, the system will flag your pattern.
