Hello BHW, I've been coding for around 3 years now, and OFM for around 2. One of my traffic sources is Fetlife.
I have an extensive bot to create accounts and engage users on Fetlife to farm traffic to my OF models.
Recently, around 1 month ago, I've encountered an issue where my newly created accounts keep getting banned. I use antidetect browser (Adspower) + good clean proxies (tested from multiple good vendors and multiple kinds of proxies, mobile/residential, with good score and non-detected as proxy/vpn from any proxy checker sites) and clean, unique fingerprints on each Adspower profile. Tested with different emails (hotmail and gmail), purchased or fresh created as well.
I think they have upgraded their website security, so my accounts keep getting connected for a reason I can't find yet, usually after 1-2.5 hrs of creation. I have extensively tested behavior patterns as well, and also manually/with my script - the results are the same.
Anyone that has some experience and knowledge about bot farms or suggestions what I need to improve would be much appreciated.

Have you tried mixing in older accounts with new ones? Purely fresh accounts seem to get more aggressive bans lately

I'm only talking about newly created accounts. I don't do any actions after they're created, these bans happen with no activity after the creation, except scrolling and browsing for 15-20 minutes.
 
major anti-fraud companies can detect antidetect browsers (Adspower also)

I don't think adspower itself is the issue tbh. People still run bigger platforms (instagram, threads, reddit) with it successfully. I imagine Fetlife's security to be weaker.
As a side note, I tried Dolphin Anty and Gologin and ban rate was still the same.

Most likely, the reason is detect machine behavior (bot) instead of human behavior. We cannot exclude such an update from them even though they're not Google

Even manually I get banned, without using any script

try proxies from different sources - may not be the reason, but worth a shot. Once I ran into similar problems at an other site and I was 100% sure adspower is leaking - turned out they just banned a whole bunch of proxy providers.

Tested with 4 different providers already.
Also different type of proxies:
Mobile (from real SIM)
Residential
Mobile/residential
All not flagged/not recognized as vpn/server/proxy on different checker websites.
Concluded that proxies are definitely not the issue.
 
Have you tried changing your content? What happens if you make a male account, do you still get banned?

Yes, same thing.
50% of accounts don't even have photo uploaded while being created, while the other 50% always use unique random photo from somewhere (not my models) for testing purposes.

Another thing that worth looking into: are you running the antidetect on some unusual host OS? I had more problems when the host OS were old outdated windows or linux - its leaking somewhere. Then I changed to win 10/11 hosts and got all good.

I'm just recommending things that fucked up my automations in the past, I have no direct experience with fetlife.

Using windows 10, browserleaks and pixelscan show 97% - 100% browser reliability and OS matches everywhere. I think it's not the issue here as well
 
have you tried switching to a different antidetect to see if that fixes the issue? multilogin, hidemyacc, etc.

Edit:
Sorry I misread. I thought you said mobile proxies, not real mobile devices.
That could work, but it would overcomplicate things and slow down my scaling by a huge margin. Browsers are really ideal in the situation.

You should try ALL AVAILABLE anti-detect browsers, not just one.

If proxies are not the issue, try creating Virtual Machines, both under cold iron Linux as well as cold iron Windows.

In each VM, change things around, fonts, resolution, software installed, etc

Try virtual box as well as VMWare. And try different distros of Linux

The try to work with Fetlife and see what happens

You may have to create a Phone Farm

Try GenFarmer. Maybe they can modify one of their AI bots to work with FetLife

Sincerely,

The Eye

Bro, this is a misconception, yes, you need to learn something new, but it's worth it
