Well thank you for the explanation! From a bit of googling it seems that other redditors also experienced being “suddenly unbanned,” which chalks up with what you said.
Does that mean i should completely avoid viewing reddit and then 100 days on from my last viewing they’ll forget my IP and i can join again? (Assuming of course that it’s a new email address)
Or do they ‘hold’ the IP from when you did the first infraction rather than whem you did the latest visit?
I odn’t think you can get “unbanned” without trying an appeal, though if you do try an appeal it will get rejected as it gets checked by bots somehow.
I had two instances of this, I don’t remember what I did last time. I did download Brave which doesn’t track fingerprints but now funnily enough I was banned on a Brave browser so I guess I would clear cookies, but I remember singing up after 100 days and took it real slow like posting every few weeks and I was in the clear, until I got sniped by a bot.
Wait 100 days, clear your cookies, IP, Browser, Email, even format your PC if you have to.
The rules say that Reddit keeps track of your IP and fingerprints for 100 days.
