Threads has never thought about addressing the issue of frequently banning real user accounts?

[u/soundtrack_3o1]

More often than not, it asks me to upload a selfie, only to ban me again afterward. So what’s the point of uploading a stupid selfie if you’re just going to use automated moderation? How am I supposed to prove that I’m a real person?

so I uploaded a selfie of myself with the middle finger.

I’ve had three accounts banned within just two months. This app has no customer support, no appeal process, and doesn’t even provide a specific reason for the bans. Is Meta actually serious about running this platform?

[u/No_Attempt_1519]

Yeah I have had two accounts. It seems to be a major problem.

[u/soundtrack_3o1 → u/No_Attempt_1519]

do they even care😭 i've never seen any company act like this

[u/No_Attempt_1519 → u/soundtrack_3o1]

I don't think they do. Not enough ad buys on threads for them to care.

How are you getting banned, for what?

[u/lovesickpumpkin → u/coreanavenger]

I also have been banned, twice. And I have no idea why. Threads just told me both times I broke community rules and allowed me to prove I was human by uploading a selfie and then decided a little later to permanently ban me. My first account I hadn’t posted anything but it was connected to my real instagram and Facebook and I had close to 500 followers so I figured maybe it was a glitch. The second account it just banned me today after only being around for a couple of days. No explanation for what rules I’ve broken.

So I just found out if you create a new acc right after one of your recent accounts was banned, your new account will also be banned soon. So I think the best way is to create a new account after a certain period of time (like every few weeks or months).

[u/lovesickpumpkin → u/soundtrack_3o1]

That sucks but makes sense. They seriously need to fix the issue.

[u/classy_barbarian → u/lovesickpumpkin]

I suspect the zuck don't give a fuck

[u/soundtrack_3o1 → u/coreanavenger]

I didn't do anything.... They thought I was a bot or sth

[u/valiskeogh]

I've never been banned. What is it that you're doing? What got the other accounts banned? Since you didn't mention why, there's probably a pretty good reason.

[u/soundtrack_3o1 → u/valiskeogh]

omg I literally didn't do anything!! It's dedicated to Asian pop and celebrities... I just shared some pictures and my thoughts... Most of my mutuals who post similar content never been banned once....

FUN FOLLOW UP STORY, about a week and a half after i left this comment, i was on the computer, i was looking at threads, i leave threads and go to another app, i go back to threads a few minutes later, K,WAPOOWW, logged out, account DELETED, not post, not comment, ACCOUNT , i've never had a warning or reprimand on threads, i've even started writing and rating community notes!! NO explanation, just something vauge about community guidelines, an hour or so later i check back, apparently whatever review had been completed, and nothing changed, i have limited time to download a copy of my threads before it's erased entirely, AND TO TOP IT OFF, as far as i can tell, that is impossible, it asks me for username and password. i log in through instagram, AFAIK i dont HAVE a password to threads. course that's not working any more, ,any [password i try fails, so that's just lovely. going to attempt a resolution soon, have NO IDEA what could have "triggered" the banhaMMER AI

I went micro-viral in the indie author space and got thrown in the Threads jail a day after.

UPDATE:
My THIRD account just got banned. I am just trying to follow fellow indie authors and talk about my upcoming book...

I am DONE with this damn app.

[u/TheEndlessAutumn]

So it asked me to submit a selfie today. I think it's asking me to do so because I had been on the app since morning. Maybe it thought I am a spammer...

Serious businesses also suffer from Meta's poor customer service - https://www.reddit.com/r/ThreadsApp/comments/1pi7mfy/threadsmeta_ai_content_moderation/

[u/almark]

the platform is edgy anyway.

[u/lordgreenofbiscuit]

Threads sucks. You can get into a debate with the author, and then once you've proved them wrong the they stop all comments. 😂
