For some reason Facebook keeps blocking my personal account even though it is not the account posting the banned content. I have tried using fake accounts on proxy's to post but for some reason my personal account still gets hit with these 30 day bans. And yes I did create the fake accounts while on the proxy and have never used them while not on the proxy. I am posting to some fan pages I own. My personal account is the admin on the fan pages. I was thinking that could possibly be the problem but I don't want to make one of my fake accounts the owner because if the account gets disabled I will lose the page. Any ideas?
Facebook keeps blocking my personal account

Of coarse I am doing something against the rules. That wasn't the point of my post. The question was why are they blocking a account that is not doing the posting

Are you clearing your cache/using CC cleaner to clear everything before switching back to your normal IP/personal account?
I am using a completely different browser.

Okay, well they're connecting you, so try CC Cleaner, it works for me and many others.
Ok. So just to make sure I got this right. My personal account is in chrome. All of my fake accounts use firefox. I am using a plugin for firefox that lets me make several firefox profiles. Each one of those profiles are on a different proxy. On my computer I usually have all of it open at the same time. So you are saying I can only open one account at a time and I must use CC cleaner before I open any of the other accounts even if it is on a completely different profile or browser?

Let me make sure that I got this right, you are here asking questions as to why your personal account is getting tied in with accounts that you are posting from. You're sitting there with full cache, cookies, etc, and wondering why you keep getting connected. You're saying you've never once forgotten to use a proxy? Cleared all traces of posting before switching accounts? Try what I suggested. There are only a few ways they can connect you to another account from a machine.

Possible WebRTC leak. There are browser addons for both Firefox and Chrome to prevent that. I'm not saying that this is the case for sure, but it's a possibility.
There are also super cookies, which can be placed in your system - although i'm not sure, if FB uses these or not - and those won't get removed when clearing browser cache/history, not even with CCleaner. There's a tool called Security Task Manager, that is able to reveal and remove them.
I'd say, browser fingerprinting is out of question, because you use different browsers, however your OS, language, screen resolution still stays the same. Using a browser addon which fakes the canvas won't hurt for sure, for an added layer of protection.
And regardless all this, it still can be that you do something on FB, what you are not aware of, but still links your accs.
But hey, look at the bright side. If you're blocked on FB for 30 days, you don't waste your time there at least and can be more productive, so maybe don't try to solve this issue at all. lol
