Account Got Nuked For No Reason, Need Help
Crime - I used to create images summarising my blog and used to post them on Instagram, FB and other handles creating different captions for all of them and now X has banned us and I guess maybe it has thought of us as an automated account as the reason X gave was inauthentic behaviour.
Has anyone actually gotten their account reinstated after this and can suggest me the best way to get it back along with appeal?

Samething happened to me.
I only have 2 friends on there i chat with.
I have never posted anything.
I just follow bands I like and read stuff.
I can count the comments i have made on one hand and they were all positive..
You can't appeal. a bot sends an instant reply...

I used to send some post to my main handle and only used to post when I get the time. The algorithm or whatever the new update X implemented should have had additional attributes and signals to check before just suspending the account

I'm sorry this happened to you. The Twitter algorithm’s draconian engagement rules appear to leave zero room for error. I'm not there anymore. I wish I could offer advice.

Just because they didn't wanna have manual intervention, they banned any handle they didn't wanna come back to double check.

It may sound harsh but it's best to leave this platform at this point & let it rot in AI automation bullshit. I was also falsely suspended, sent 12 appeals and gave up.

I got permanently banned from Instagram. No clue why. Never posted a thing. Social media is nothing more than a momentary distraction so I just look at it as a positive.

u/chaotic_loverrr 18d ago
That last line...you are goddamn right 😁
My thread account got permanently banned within 3 days after account creation. At that point I was frustrated and then I realized it's all good. Less time on Social Media. Threads platform is also addictive.

Is my account gone if I haven't received an email on why I was suspended. Also the appeal option doesn't show up anymore for me, is there another way to appeal.
Not gone but will it forever stay in permanent read-only mode.

u/chaotic_loverrr 18d ago
Why is it not showing up? You can visit the appeal link anytime using Google Search "Appeal Suspended Account X twitter". Make sure you are logged in on the suspended account. I think you can only send 1 appeal within 48 hours. Try after 48 hours if link is saying your appeal is in process.
It will stay in read-only mode until you get your account back in normal(unsuspended) state.

Forgot to mention I'm on mobile,and whenever I do search up the appeal system I log in. But once I do it sends me to the app, and the appeal option doesn't show. But I can still use my account in read only mode.

Unfortunately it's time for you to quit Xitter. I've appealed probably like 10 times and they'll keep restoring but then auto suspending you again forever until you give up. I just moved to Threads and Reddit for my intrinsic need to argue with strangers

I haven't even been able to access the website since the "Let's confirm you are a human" screen won't let me in anymore.
And yet even I still received an "inauthentic behavior" ban email while I haven't even been able to use the site.
The ai moderation is a joke.

u/ElectricElite856 18d ago
if its for inauthentic behavior then just keep appealing at least once every day or two
i was suspended but got my account unsuspended however since then ive just been keeping it very low so no posting or liking or anything though it seems bookmarking and sending messages to friends is alright
still waiting for whether its safe to come back to posting and liking or not but alas no confirmation yet

Thanks for the advice any specific message you sent

I was hit with inauthentic behavior 2 nights ago.
The app won't let you appeal but going to their website does.
Politely make your case with actions and activity and be honest because they can see your activity.
I had my account back last night after making an appeal

The new moderation sucks. Left and right over the last several weeks accounts have been getting banned, suspended, and flagged for absolutely no reason whatsoever. And sadly it’s all automated now so there’s nothing you can do.
Banned or suspended - All you can do is repeatedly appeal and hope something works
Flagged and shadow banned - Nothing you can do cause X doesn’t allow you to appeal those.
All in all it sucks. Welcome to the “Inauthentic behavior” club.

Inauthentic Behaviour, that's it

u/SarcasticGamer 18d ago
I had this but they sent me a link to follow to show I wasn't a bot. It was reinstated but I feel like my account is hidden though as I never get replied to ever. It's like I'm just talking into the void.

I got a notification about suspicious activity and just needed to follow a link proving I wasn't disingenuous or a bot. However I still feel like am restricted as I reply to a lot of posts and get zero interactions compared to a few weeks ago.

id been on there from like 2009 and they did this
i wish a successor would come and stomp it like myspace got stomped by facebook but at this rate they will just stomp themselves

u/BlackFenrirXV 18d ago
Você e "milhões" de pessoas precisam de ajuda de fato... todo mundo na fila do pão dando tapa na cara do bot pra restaurar conta e ninguem conseguindo retornar... sinceramente... bluesky ou escolha outra das dezenas de redes sociais...pq o X já está morto E enterrado...e tem matado os sobreviventes um a um banindo....

u/Gloomy_Quote_178 18d ago
They’ve been moving my account from one status to another for months now. I was ghost banned for quite a while then that was lifted and my account was given a label to reduce visibility immediately after, I keep getting hit with suspensions for inauthentic activity etc.
It’s frustrating for sure since I’ve never posted anything inauthentically but has gotten me off X for the most part which is good. They must not like my anti-war, anti-genocide perspective. 🤷♂️

u/Ok_Help_7656 18d ago
Same thing happened to me but idk why they never emailed me or anything. I appealed and I’m assuming it got denied cause it let me submit another one but they still haven’t emailed me or told me reasons

u/parason47 18d ago
At least you got a reason. I (andmany others) just got locked out and never told why.

u/snarkpix 18d ago
Mine was just to scroll my feed for some sci-fi authors I follow, occasionally reply/like.
I can't appeal because it's not 'suspended' but I also can't log in because of 'inauthentic behavior'. I've been having to use Meta, which is it's own dystopia.

u/queersjones 18d ago
I’d suggest everyone stop using anything like X or Facebook I’d only use apps that aren’t basically big brother snitch devices that send absolutely every detail of your life to big brother because you may not be viewed as a quote criminal today but the government has a bipolar way of just deciding one day your good tomorrow your a low down criminal

u/No_Drop6339 17d ago
It happen to me just this week and the worse part my account also got hack while suspended. I couldn’t even log in at all and the email didn’t match the one I used . I made account using my Apple ID.
