I suspect that the problem is in the IPs that I use in the free Tunnel Bear account, but I will describe all the steps. I go to Tunnel Bear and choose the US IP. Then I do everything through Chrome Incognito. I register an account (the email is separately registered in Outlook). Then I go into it every day and like some topics and comments. This continues for 2 weeks. That is, every time I go from the IP from Tunnel Bear to Chrome Incognito. After two weeks, I choose a subreddit and leave a comment there. The subreddit has no rules at all. I comment on someone's question, and the account is immediately banned. What is my mistake?
 
Your accounts may have been banned on Reddit for violating community guidelines, such as spamming, harassment, or rule-breaking behavior.

There were no rules in the subreddit, I didn't put a link or write anything obscene, this is clearly not related to that. I was responding to the topic of personal productivity. And I used the word "anxiety" for that, did they ban me?
 
There could be several reasons why your Reddit accounts might be banned. Some common reasons include:

  1. Violation of Reddit's Content Policy: Posting content that goes against Reddit's rules, such as hate speech, harassment, spam, or illegal content.
  2. Breaking Subreddit Rules: Each subreddit has its own set of rules, and violating them—such as posting off-topic content or engaging in disruptive behavior—can lead to a ban from that specific subreddit or even the whole platform if it’s serious.
  3. Automated Behavior: Using bots, scripts, or other automation tools to perform actions like posting or commenting can be flagged by Reddit’s system as suspicious behavior.
  4. Suspicious Account Activity: If Reddit detects unusual patterns of activity like mass downvoting, spamming, or excessive posting within a short time, it could result in a ban.
  5. Fake Engagement: Participating in vote manipulation, such as buying fake upvotes or downvotes, or engaging in coordinated voting schemes, is prohibited.
  6. Multiple Rule Violations: Repeatedly violating rules can result in a temporary or permanent ban.
To resolve this, you can try appealing the ban directly with Reddit’s moderation team or check the email notifications that may contain specific reasons for the ban.
 
It's impossible to know what it was. Just change things and try again

Absolutely stupid meaningless chatgpt ahh comment
 
Could this be the IP from the free version of Tunnel Bear or is it because I'm browsing through Chrome incognito and don't have a cookie history?
 
Isn't TunnelBear a datacenter IP? Because Reddit hates datacenters and it's almost an instant ban the moment you comment with a datacenter logged in. Also, make sure the subreddit you comment has a very low CQS requirement. Usually if a single comment gets removed, it triggers auto shadowban.

thanks! Of course, data center IP, there are no others, on digitalocean, as I understand. There was no shadow ban, it's just that if you look at the profile without logging in, it says suspended. I don't know what CQS is, but I'll take a look.
 
Reddit can be unpredictable sometimes. Try creating another one and go through their guidelines thoroughly. You might have done something you were not aware of
 
I tried to post a comment from other accounts, logged into them from my IP. Everything was posted, only if you log out of the account and look at the comment, it is collapsed under "+". Is this also some kind of filter or is this normal for the first comment from an account?
 
''free Tunnel Bear account''

Yes, this is a problem. Probably not the only one, but with this kind of free VPN, your accounts will be certainly banned. Even using your own IP is better than that
 
Try finding residential proxies, you are connecting to a free network. maybe 50 people are connecting to reddit on that network. what do you expect?
 
reddit seems the easiest to beat amongs all the platforms, get a good proxy on mobile and simply get going
you shouldnt have a problem
 
In my opinion most of the vpn IPs are already in database of these big social media companies. So generally they knows you can think it as a multibillion dollar corp having details of each ip if its of a real user or a vpn or something else.

usually when your banned that is the main reason
 
Tunnel Bear is a VPN. Never use VPNs for social media accounts. Use any good antidetect browser and set proxies in each browser profile. When creating a social media (reddit, etc) account, first use a mobile proxy and next day you can switch over to residential proxy.
 
There are very strict with multi accounts. You need to lot more testing to be able to keep accounts safe.
