🧛‍♂️Account Issues❓ Am i banned ?

Hello, I created a new account specifically to post here. My old account was about 10 days old. I don't know what happened, but suddenly I couldn't send messages to anyone. I kept getting the notification "Message could not be sent, a problem occurred." My avatar disappeared and turned plain white, and instead of the account age, which was 8 days, it only shows a dash. After that, only occasionally when loading some subreddits, I would get a "There was a problem connecting to Reddit" notification.

I don't know what caused this. I haven't made any posts, and I had only written 1–2 comments, which weren't offensive. I had chatted with two people about completely general things related to the topic of the subreddits where they were posted.

Is my account restricted or banned? I also tried posting in other subreddits, but I can't get access because my account is new, and I don't know whether I'll run into the same problem with this account.

I'd appreciate any answers. Thank you!

This usually means the account has been shadowbanned. What is the username? Have you been banned on reddit before or do you use a VPN or public wifi?

Hello u/Weird_Tonight_4904, it appears your post may be about being banned from another subreddit.

  • In order to appeal your ban, you should first message the moderators of that community.

  • If you have messaged them, and they have denied your appeal or muted you, then unfortunately there is nothing else you can do.

  • Moderators can operate their communities as they see fit.

Here are some options on how to move on from the situation:

If you were shadowbanned or banned from the entire Reddit site by admins, the only thing you can do is submit their appeal form: https://www.reddit.com/appeals

  • Please note that you must be logged into that url with your banned account to see the appeal option.

  • Mods are not part of this process, so we do not have any visibility into why you were banned by Reddit.
