I got someome shadowbanned with upvote service

[ContactAronas]

Reddit is very strict right? But also they are not very smart, what's preventing us from massively upvoting someone's post to get them banned? After using upvote service 300 +- upvotes on a controversial post someone made (which was getting downvoted) and they got shadowbanned.

So what's preventing us using upvote service to get people banned, especially if we track whenever they make a new post and use upvote service instantly.

so I actually just started posting on Reddit and learning their rules, to clarify so who got shadow banned? the person who received all of the up votes?

what is the point of banning someone?

just invest this money buying upvotes for yourself, rank your answers high and make money (as many people here are doing) instead of wasting time, energy and money f*cking other people

Reddit filters are too strict, and many innocent people get banned. If I can get someone banned by using upvote service on them, it's reddits flaw, not user.

It's not just reddit...IG,Youtube ,etc same shit. You send low quality views to a channel and it will get penaltity sooner or later.

Nothing.

You can even get small and new subreddits removed entirely like that.

Reddit isn't fixing it... this has been going on for months now.

Nothing is stopping you in reality.. just budget

Interesting loophole but kinda scary too If Reddit isnt catching this pattern it could be misused a lot feels like a flaw in their moderation system

okay tracking that's news to me, lots of different strategies obviously.

Nothing really stops it if the post looks sus and the upvotes are botted.

Reddit right now is at its worst, they wanted to combat spam with the extreme filters and now regular people are getting caught in the crossfire.

If you use the worst quality service available that can deliver the 300 upvotes instantly, you will either shadowban the user or get it completely banned for vote manipulation.

Unfortunately you can do this on other platforms as well like Instagram with fake followers and destroy people's reach.

your account would be banned anyway, doesnt matter about the upvotes you received

other users, propaganda bots, and misc bots do this to brigade subs to get people bans because they either dont like that person, or trying to control a narrative, which is quite common on reddit.
