I was also recently permanently banned by Reddit, the only reason why I can think of is because:

1. periodically like every 3-4 months I would be running a script to delete any and all posts and comments. Also every 1-2 years I would delete my account(s), and start brand-new with new accounts (to avoid doxxing).

2. I had 3 alt accounts, one for professional reasons (AI, coding, etc), one for local interests (NYC), and one for fun/shitposting. All three linked to the same email address.

3. I did not violate any rules (except for running a script), I did not upvoted/downvoted each other's posts or upvoted/downvoted the same post from different accounts, each accounts followed different subs.

IMO Reddit is cleaning up house and surely didn't like my deleting my history.

C'est la vie!

Was running the script against the rules? If so, why include point #3?
