no OP.

I got the F out and deleted my old posts every time they restored them until they stayed gone.

Deleting your posts was a waste of time. Chances are likely that it is archived on their end.

Reddit has been paying close attention to behavior patterns of banned users and users they wouldn't want on their platform. It's likely they've gotten your posting imprint and just give you the comfort of thinking you've deleted your posts.

deleting your account also wont stop them from finding your new accounts, they mostly archived that as well. they look at browser fingerprinting, device, device components, time zone discrepancy, browser size and VERSION, resolution,,,etc. if you use any paid service/trial service that can spoof any of these above and they arnt the correct versions, they can detect that.

and then theres the warming up period with new accounts(like not posting, reporting, or upvoting too fast after account creation)

They certainly can. Do you have evidence that suggests they are doing that?
