What is CQS?
CQS is a classification system for Reddit users that identifies potential spammers or users who contribute less than positively to the platform. Each account is assigned a CQS based on a variety of signals, including activity history and actions taken against the account.
CQS has five levels:
- Highest
- High
- Moderate
- Low
- Lowest
This parameter has been used for quite a long time, but few people know how to increase it, what it affects and what actions can change its level.
---How is the CQS level assigned?
- When registering, the account is automatically assigned the Moderate level, which means moderate trust in the user.
- Email verification, social media linking and other basic actions increase the CQS level, but their impact is minimal.
---Actions that reduce CQS
1. Adding a link to your profile
- Strong decrease in CQS. If you add a link on a new account, the level will immediately drop to Lowest .
2. Changing the account status to NSFW- On a new account, it results in a downgrade to Low .
3. Deleting posts- Minor negative impact.
4. Posts removed due to auto-moderation- Slight decrease in CQS.
5. Publishing posts- Yes, this also reduces CQS, especially if the posts are of poor quality.
---Actions that increase CQS
1. Communication in private messages- It's unusual, but it really does increase the CQS level.
2. Replies to comments- It is important that you do not answer under your own posts.
3. Creating quality posts- Posts must receive a sufficient number of upvotes relative to the number of community subscribers.
---How do publications affect CQS?
Publishing posts can either increase or decrease CQS, depending on the quality:
- If a post is posted to a large community (e.g. one with a million subscribers) and only gets 5-10 upvotes, it will lower the CQS. Reddit will rate it as low quality.
- If a post is published in a community with 100k subscribers and gets 200-300 upvotes, the CQS will increase.
---Example of CQS increase in one day
The following was done on the Low level account:
- 7 comments created.
- Received about 20-30 karma for comments.After 17 hours, the CQS level changed to High , despite the account having NSFW status and a link in the profile.We have used this method on many accounts and the result has always been the same: CQS is effectively increased if the above conditions are met.
---Conclusion
The conclusions are based on dozens of tests. If you follow the above recommendations, you will be able to successfully manage the CQS level of your Reddit account.
