The rules say that Reddit keeps track of your IP and fingerprints for 100 days.
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.
