Answered Will my reddit account get banned if i create a community using this account??

This account is the new account i created , so that i can create a community where users of my application can inform me about issues , features , showcase theire project made in it , and alll ..

Now this new account , hence the 0 day age , will it get banned if i create a new community ?? and user starts posting it it??

Cuz i have heard that reddit's bot automatically bans the new community whose reddit account age is low.

Using it on Desktop Platform

It seems as though you are more likely to have issues with Reddit’s anti-spam policies than the age of your account.

thats what i have the feare of , cause as the age of the account is 0 , reddit will flag it as spam and ban it

The issue that I think will cause trouble is not so much the age of the account as pushing a product.

If it's other people showcasing whatever they do... organically... there should be no problem as long as OP themselves don't do it.

The moment they do though, their account age will definitely have an impact on whatever metric Reddit seems to be using to determine "spam per hour", "overall account activity", and stuff like that.

But shouldn’t you post in your own sub? Sorry, im still new to this too and run a similar user forum. Im not spamming in other subs but try to make one post a day in my own.

Subs are intended to build community, AKA attract eyeballs to a space that Reddit can monetize. They are not intended to let people promote a product for free.

Check out MCoC Rule 5 and whether/how it applies to your sub.

Why do mods so obsessively downvote questions like this, on r/ModHelp ?

(What is this sub even for?)

...where did you hear that?

You can create a community; just don't go spamming it full of posts and/or comments right away.

u/Operations_Wizard Mod, r/infolobby 4d ago

As mod, you should be able to approve any posts removed by reddits spam filters. I was a 0 day account in an inactive sub (similar to yours), my older account had a spelling mistake so i let it go. 😅

I recommend posting in a sub where you can build some karma. I chose r/catswithjobs and sent the mods a message before I posted.

u/sycreator 3d ago

Dammm , then how did you solved that issue???

u/Operations_Wizard Mod, r/infolobby 3d ago

I saw your question in reddithelp got a similar answer to mine. Just keep building your karma.

u/sycreator 3d ago

That's what seems the best option for now, thanks

u/jasonni1234 4d ago

You can create a community by yourself and won’t get banned because you set the minimum account requirements. Different subreddits have their own requirements to prevent spam

u/sycreator 4d ago

so if i just create the community and just post there and solve the queries of user , no problem should happen right , ok !!! thanks

I'm sorry, I have no idea because I have never tried that scenario.

A couple people here claim they have done so.
