What were you posting?
I've used a VPN constantly and I have a Reddit account in the 15-year club, it hasn't been an issue.
- netfortius 5y agoNo posts in the control account. Just VPN exit points "switching"
- sdoering 5y agoBut couldn't it be that this specific behavior triggered a spam warning? I have no insight into Reddit regarding security, but would expect new/fresh and empty accounts under special scrutiny and when an account like that hops from IP to IP this would - if I were to build a heuristic at least trigger an alarm/ban/temporary lock of voting/posting functions. Just an idea regarding your latest test. The part of the main account sucks - I am with you on that.
- tapland 5y agoI haven't seen any issues with my 10+ year old accounts. They are probably marked as safe and only newer accounts at risk.
- StellarTabi 5y agoProbably my 10 years + verified email + MFA + never using a public VPN saves me a lot of grief in the abuse detection algorithm lottery.
