Dear BHW members,

I am a newbie interested in creating reddit bots with puppeteer.js.
At this moment I have a functioning reddit upvote and reddit registration bot with couple problems :(

For both bots I have implemented:
  • Random User Agent
  • Random Resolution
  • Random user input delays
  • Different IP for each session with use of Zyte proxy manager
  • puppeteer-extra-plugin-stealth to hide the use of headless chromium of puppeteer.
To register multiple reddit accounts I'm using AWS Simple Email Service(SES).
So every Reddit account I create will be registered on 1 domain (i.e. ***@example.com).

I have 2 questions:
1: Will the accounts be banned because they are all registered on the same domain?
My gut feeling says Reddit will detect that a specifiek domain users are all upvoting one post which will trigger their bot detection system.
Am I right with this assumption? Does anybody have tips in regards to creating multiple accounts (up to 1000).

2: Like I explained, each session of my bot has a different IP. But when I start with registering the accounts, after 3 to 5 registrations.
Reddit warns me that Ihave registered too much accounts in a short time, and that I need to take rest for x ammount of minutes.
How can they detect it? Is it because it is registered using the same domain?

Any help is welcome,
Thanks in advance.

No.1 is correct.
Can you try diversify them with different email domains ?
 
Hey Fastdeliverz,

Yes it is realy easy to buy multiple domains and use AWS SES to create accounts.
So in theorie I could buy 20 domains and register roughly 50 account per domain.

If that does decrease the chance of detection I could do that.
 
From what I've read, if all the accounts are using a well known email provider like hotmail or similar, you shouldn't have any issues.

To my knowledge puppeteer extra stealth doesn't fully take care of fingerprints (the measures you are using may not be enough), you may need something like Multilogin or Incognition to take care of this.
 
Hey Thebotmaker,

Thanks for your tips, are there resources you recommend to learn fingerprint bypass techniques? Or is it simpler to use Multilogin or Incognition?
Do you have experience with those services and do you recommend it?
 
i created 100-200 accounts per day using VPN , the reddit wait X minutes to continue like me is due to the same IP
 
Hey Langtoi,

Thanks for the information! Did you use a custom domain to register the accounts or services like hotmail.com?
 
Email provider is not an issue, I use a disposable email service. I also encounter the wait time but I simply close the session and reopen another one, a bit tedious but its not a major issue.
