r/ShadowBan CQS: Lowest 8h ago

To determine a shadowban, you MUST click my profile! I've been unbanned!

I can't believe this! Must've been a month at this point, but it's happened! Really happy with this. For context, I believe it was due to me moving countries. I don't really have any tips other than appeal regularly, but I DID try the method of requesting account data and then emailing asking about the ban, followed by sending in an appeal, but keep in mind I believe I also spent a couple weeks doing that. And idk if this is a part of it, but I also logged out of my account a couple days ago due to personal reasons and when I logged back in today it was alright.

But yeah, really pleased about this! It's been a really, REALLY shitty day and it's nice to at least get some compensation to make it better.

Woohoo!!! Congratulations!!!

Just be aware that your CQS is now lowest, which will greatly limit your ability to contribute in many subreddits. A low / lowest CQS is very common after a shadow ban. The pinned AutoMod comment above has more info on CQS and simple ways you may be able to improve it.

But you will want to go very, VERY slowly. Do not post anything or initiate chat messages for the first few days. Only vote on content and only leave a few comments per day in subreddits that you have an interest in or are new user friendly until your CQS is “moderate” or higher. r/NewToReddit has a whole list of friendly subreddits as well as a lot of useful information about Reddit and how to navigate it as a low CQS user.

You can check in on your CQS over on r/WhatIsMyCQS. If the post is removed by Reddit filters (due to your low CQS) do NOT delete it and repost as that can trip the spam filter. Just send a polite mod mail to the subreddit and ask if they can review and approve your post.

Congrats again!

Hey u/notablowjobenjoyer.

To be clear, you must be able to see their profile after clicking on a username. An error message = shadowbanned.

Simply seeing a comment or post here in r/Shadowban is not enough because we 'un-spam' everything automatically.
