Need help to figure out why Pinterest is banning all my accounts

atticanibal · Apr 16, 2014

So for a few days now Pinterest been banning my account no matter what and how i use them.

Before I was using Pin Blaster and it was going fine. then all of a sudden all the accounts got banned. Since then i tried working with new account, with aged account, without any followers on them or with a bunch, changed my IP's used proxies , changed and re installed my browsers. I even bought a VPS and tried it there and they still got banned within 2 minutes after i put it in the software.

I also tried using them with Pin Pioneer and Ninja Pinner but the same result. And i know PB and ninja pinner is working fine for others but no matter wth i do my accounts get banned

Even tried just repining without changing source, tried different time delays from 5 to 30 seconds to 300 to 600 seconds , still nothin. Tried using only ONE account , still banned.

Anyone has any idea or experience why this would happen or any suggestions on what the hell else i can try

Hey,

How many accounts did you use per proxy?

Were they private or shared proxies?

Did you use the same proxies, or did you change them?

warm regards,

Anyone else got any idea ?

Pulling a theory outta my arse here; maybe Pinterest changed the spam detection algo? Most software don't act like a human, so for example, software performs the same actions in 'chunks' (pinning, liking, comment, etc).

What type of links are you including with your pins? If they are too spammy this could be the reason why.

Could it be that they banned your website?

Contact customer service via one of the banned accounts and try to get it reinstated. Be sure to ask why it was banned. CS response may be able to give you an idea.

Try making a new account at school / work? and see what happens?

WTH...? I was about to buy pin blaster especially since its on sale. Do you think its your proxy provider?

BTW, On a regular forum theres a topic about bug of some sort where pinterest is suspending many users by mistake for spam use. A few have sent an email to pinterest, and their accounts were reactivated. It would be a hassle to email pinterest if you have dozens if not, hundreds of accounts though =/

Yeah that's what i tough too but like i said i asked a few more people who use the same softwares and it works just fine for them. And i tried 3 different types of software.

I usully leave my website or a blogger redirecting but sicne the bans i experimented with a lot of different link + leaving the original link + not leaving a link at all. Still the same result. Bans

The accounts i use are all new and you can see that they are made for spam so i think if anyone from customer services sees this they will notice.

I bought a VPS which would mean a completely new computer and tried it from there and it still had the same result :/

And i wast using proxies before just now to test if they would work like that but nope ... still banned al the accounts.

They banned my accounts because they had the same password... Do you use different password for each account?
Also, they are banning accounts that use the same pictures. So if you use same 10-20 profile pictures for 1000 accounts, they will surely link them and ban them.

So there was a 'profile footprint'! At least you found the cause.

Did it with both. Differnt profile pictures for each user and used only once and different passwords for each account

I followed 60k people with 52 accounts in about 2 weeks and no problems for me.

It looks like your proxys are bad or the accounts are bad.

Also when you mass follow do about 50-70 per account every 3-4 hours and you should be safe

If they ban your URL, will everyone who pinned your pins with the banned URL get banned?
I had 280 accounts with 100 private quality proxies and they all had one board with my pins (custom original designed shirts), and 3 other boards each with pins and boards like "Tattoos'' ''fitness'' ''beach'' etc..However all my 280 got banned even with each having separate private proxies. How can this be?

Can anyone explain, maybe I had been liking too much 10k in a day which I think it's not much 10k divided by 280 is about 35 likes per acct.

Please help! even my main account got suspended. I e-mailed them for the main account so I can get it back, I read somewhere that the blocked URL only lasts a few
weeks, is this correct?
