The interface allows for editing or deleting personas with icons representing these actions.

Biggest Mistakes

  1. Don't use a company account - It comes off as salesy and impersonal
  2. Don't make fake "user" accounts - You will get called out and banned
  3. Don't buy Reddit accounts - Most get banned within 1-2 weeks
  4. Don't worry about karma unless it blocks you from posting
  5. Don't make 100+ comments in a day - Max 10 comments per day per account
  6. Dont share accounts among 10 different IPs - Looks Sus
  7. Dont create accounts on a computer with banned IP from reddit - Looks sus

Main Reasons People Get Banned:

  • Not warming up new accounts properly
  • Making too many posts immediately after account creation
  • Posting too many hyperlinks
  • Using automation tools/APIs
  • Fake being a user (people can see your history)
  • Having a bad / impersonal persona.
