I just figured out that Reddit has a Gestapo type spam policy. That means that anyone and everyone that they say is a spammer is a spammer.
They don't tell you this, but if you post your own links, then you will be banned. If you post more than 1 link from the same site you will be banned.
Of course they can also ban you for spelling or anything else they feel like.
And nobody will tell you when you get banned from Reddit. Sometimes they do the old Craigslist ghosting thing, where they allow you to keep posting all you want, but no one can see anything you put up.
There are different types of bans you can get an overall ghosting ban, where you account just looks like it was deleted to everyone else.
You can get a sub-directory specific ban by a moderator.
They are also a group of very immature mostly adolescents who like to call people lots of names, so if you have a problem with haters then you should probably stay away from this site.
If you still want to be called names and labeled a spammer, then things to look out for.
- You should never post more than one link from the same url, this will get you banned.
This means if you post a youtube video, then you should never post anything from youtube ever again, or you will risk getting banned.
- You should never post more than one link a day, this will get you banned, it might even be best to only post a couple links a week, I have not tested this out.
- I have read that you need to contact the moderators and ask their permission to post a link as they have total control over their section and can ban anyone they want for any reason.
- You can get banned for hosting pictures any place other than imgur.com - not sure why they are promoting this site?
Follow these rules and your posts may get put up.
