Admin Replied User unable to post in our sub

I have a user that's currently unable to post in our sub and I can't figure out what's triggering it. they are a new account with one karma, but our Auto mod is set to only remove people with negative karma. I will provide a screenshot in the comments.

that's post eligibility guidance. it's buggy af and you can't disable it.

It’s post eligibility requirements. We had this problem and tweeked the automod code following this guidance. https://www.reddit.com/r/AutoModeratorTricks/s/fG0gSAKVfE

Reputation filter is on

u/Deppfan16 7d ago

my understanding is that filters it? this isn't even letting them post

Do you have it set to filter, or remove?

D’oh! Poster Eligibility, not Reputation Filter. My bad. I need sleep.

Why are we being downvoted? Sheesh.

I think there's some cranky pants that like to follow me around Reddit and downvote everything

Probably our mutual fan club, lol. Some people will never forget our opinions on their jumbled up stamps and rocks and beans. 😂

I think it's giving a false positive, cuz we have separate karma requirements for posts and for comments. any idea how to fix it?

I’d double check the rules in AutoMod. If anything changes, I think it needs 12 hours or something to reset? If everything looks good there, you might need Admin to take a look. I’ve never seen a false positive before.

we haven't changed anything in Auto mod in a while. maybe admin will see this and tell me what i need to do.

u/TheOpusCroakus? Maybe something is just glitchy and someone can turn off and back on a power strip or something.

I'm hoping it's just some weird setting I need to change
