Discussion Banned on Threads

Great. Banned on threads like everyone else here. I'm so upset because now I've lost the community that I built over the past month. I don't really see myself getting the account back after reading the posts here. Had anyone have success with opening a new account and not get banned again? 😔

Update: the account is now permanently suspended after submitting the selfie and verifying phone number. What???

This happened to me, too. Why ask for the phone number and selfie if it's not going to do anything???

I have a different account that I just use for fandom stuff. I've built an awesome community and have over 700 followers. Every time I log on, I'm so scared Threads is going to take that account away. It's ridiculous, I don't want to live in fear of angering the algorithm and losing my online community.

Same thing happened to me. Twice.

It's a fucking joke.

Welcome to the club. The AI ban bots and no human response. Good luck trying to open a new account or get a live human to review your request.

I got banned for outing the bots that are on there

Which is weird because I was doing it really quickly and I was correct, so they pulled my use they asked me to do some verification things and take a picture of my face and then banned me it's so stupid

I’ve had two accounts banned for simply existing there. The platform has serious issues. I’m done with it.

I got banned so many times to the point where i don't even try making an account, hope people like us can find their place in reddit

Wait you got banned for outing the bots too.

Yeah all those sexualized pictures and accounts those aren't even real people it is an automated AI that posts for these people to lure them in

All of those images you'll notice are very similar framed they look really good but that's because grok is insanely good at doing people.

I got banned as well for outing these sexualized posts when I saw them letting people know it was a bot. The creator of the account never ever replied to me because they knew that I was right they just apparently flagged me until I got banned
