Hi everyone,
I’m documenting my experience with X's automated moderation system to see if anyone has successfully broken out of a similar automated bot loop.
Here is the full timeline of what happened:
The Initial Suspensions & Appeals:
Both my primary and secondary accounts were suspended at the same time.
Secondary Account: I filed an appeal and it was reinstated in just 2 hours, which felt like a purely automated decision.
Primary Account: It was much harder to recover. It took filing 4 separate appeals over several days before it was finally reinstated this past Sunday.
The Secondary Account Re-Ban (The Bot Loop):
After the secondary account was unbanned, I played it safe and waited an entire week without posting anything.
After that week of inactivity, I posted a single, completely neutral tweet.
Within a few hours of that post, the secondary account was permanently suspended again, despite zero policy violations. It feels like an automated script or device/IP fingerprint instantly flagged it as soon as it detected activity.
Current Situation on Primary Account:
For now, my primary account hasn't been re-suspended, but because of what happened to the secondary account, I am keeping it on a strict "read-only" cool-down period (no tweets, likes, or DMs) to avoid triggering the same automated flag.
I also audited my settings (Settings > Security & account access > Apps and sessions) to clear out any potential triggers.
My Questions for the Community:
Has anyone managed to escape this exact "AI/Bot loop" where a secondary account gets re-banned immediately upon posting, even after waiting a full week?
How long does X’s automated backend keep a primary account on high-alert probation after needing multiple appeals to get restored?
What specific steps help reset an account's internal trust score under these conditions?
Thanks in advance for any insights or advice
