Post Safeguards

As outlined in the Reddit Posting Guidelines, some Reddit posting patterns and practices increase the likelihood of account suspensions and other negative account consequences.

To make it easier to follow best practices, PostDaddy includes automated safeguards to prevent you from making mistakes that put your Reddit account at risk.

Same Timeslot Protection

Scheduling more than one post with the same Reddit account in the same timeslot poses a high risk for any Reddit account, regardless of its credibility.

If PostDaddy encounters this situation, it will submit one of your posts and fail the rest.

It may seem inconvenient, but rescheduling 1-2 posts is much less time consuming than submitting appeals to Reddit support to regain access to your account.

Note

Because posting more than once per timeslot poses such a high risk to your Reddit account, there is no way to ignore or turn off this safeguard.

Post Frequency Per Subreddit Warning

Posting with the same account to the same subreddit too often may result in disciplinary action to your Reddit account.

In the best case, your post will be removed, and you’ll receive a warning from the moderators. In the worst case, moderators will ban your account from the subreddit.

To counter this, PostDaddy will warn you if it detects that your account has already posted (or has a post scheduled) within 24 hours of your post’s scheduled date. You can either edit the date or submit the post to the queue as-is.

Note

Most subreddits allow one post per day as a written or unwritten rule, but if in doubt, consult a subreddit’s rules to ensure you’re not posting too often.

Duplicate Content Per Subreddit Warning

Posting the same content to a subreddit more than once increases the likelihood that your account is suspended for spam or banned from the destination subreddit.

If PostDaddy detects you’re uploading content that’s been previously submitted to a subreddit, you’ll be prompted to confirm the post before it’s added to the queue.
