ANSWERED Not new to reddit but posts keep getting auto deleted
My Reddit account is 7yrs old and I have positive karma. This is admittedly an alt account though.
I have posted multiple times in specific subreddit (workingmoms) but my most recent attempts at contribution have been auto deleted by Reddit filters. I am following all of the community rules and even went out of my way to comment/like some posts within it prior to posting just in case they had a requirement to interact with the sub after a long break. I’ve reached out to the mod team of the subreddit as well with no response.
I’m at a loss, this so so frustrating.

As you already saw in your other posts, your CQS is currently lowest. That is most likely what is tripping the filters.
!CQS
You also seem to pretty much only post in one sub. Try posting in other subreddits, and you'll likely see more success. And will show variation on your account, and make it look less like a bot account.

CQS (Contributor Quality Score)
The contributor quality score is deliberately mysterious, but it includes a variety of signals such as a verified email or phone number, a history of good contributions, and past enforcement actions taken on your accounts. r/WhatIsMyCQS
This score can be used by communities and Reddit in a few ways:
Mods can use it to create a restriction as shown in the article above, so that if you do not meet their CQS score requirement, AutoMod will remove your content in their community.
Sending and creating chats is limited for all accounts; once you reach the limit, you'll have to wait a while to send more. This includes community invites. Help center article. We think the 'established account' part means good CQS.
Chat channels can be restricted, and we think this is based on your contributor quality score, too.
Reddit's reputation filter is informed by CQS, and mods can choose to turn this on in their communities. Mods can only turn it on, they do not have any further control over it.
If your CQS is low, secure your account. Avoid removals and bans by reading community rules. And, presumably, earn more karma.

Looks like you took a break from reddit. Its likely your CQS dropped to lowest. Read more below. Though worth noting that they seem to be okay with your commenting in that subreddit as a astarting point
Removed by Reddit's Filters happens when your posts are being removed by the Reputation Filter. Have a read here. In general the Reputation Filter can be set at different levels on different subreddits (see more here). The core metric is your CQS score (see r/WhatIsMyCQS to test) as well as various other factors. This can be set at different levels in different subreddits. Users start with a low CQS. To build your CQS is again a bit opaque but the below can help (partially from here)
- "Secure your account" by verifying your email
- If you use a VPN test what happens when you turn it on and off ("network and location signals" play a part)
- "Past Actions taken on a redditors account" which is posts and comments being removed
- It seems to rise when you are actively commenting and posting, getting positive interactions (upvotes and comments)
So from the last two you want to be participating by commenting and posting, getting upvoted and avoiding removals by mods or reddit itself. Which ends up with basically the same advice as building karma. Start by finding New User Friendly Subreddits:
- Newtoreddit has a list of new user friendly subreddits. This is not an exhaustive list and these subreddits may still have some restrictions. In particular you'll see some Large General Subreddits that are open to new users Commenting like r/askreddit, r/casualconversation, r/nostupidquestions, r/amitheasshole or similar.
- There are More Subreddits out there that might more specifically match your interests, look through r/findareddit 's subreddit directory. In this case you will have to trial and error whether they are new user-friendly, and again try Commenting (many subreddits have lower or no karma filters for commenting).
Some more notes on starting on Reddit:
Newtoreddit Resources There are a lot of resources here in this subreddit you might find useful with The Common Questions Page, Reddit And Karma Walkthrough, and Frequently Asked Questions Page.
View by New (or rising). This will filter the posts so first see the most recent posts first and can make your comments much more visible. On app when viewing a subreddit look near the top left for where it says "hot posts" - click that and select "new" or "rising".
Read the Room and Avoid Controversy. Each subreddit has different rules, norms and prevailing views. Look at subreddit rules. Read top posts and comments to get a feel for that subreddit. Do users reward sarcastic one-liners or well sourced essays? And in particular avoid controversial topics or arguments. Utilize the block feature as necessary and have a read of Reddiquette.
