FINALLY!!!

Any idea why you were downsized to begin with? ND did you have to file a feedback form to get back in good graces?

Yes, I did submit a Feedback Form recently, but I don't know if it helped, because I didn't hear back from them.

I suspect the reason I got dropped to 2 submissions is poor performance by my memes. I've been visited by downvote fairies, even on nonpolitical memes and comments. My recent Kermit meme got to page 3 of Hot, and the next day, I was at 3 submissions.

So it could be the Feedback, it could be the performance of Kermit. I don't know.

That's possible. My old account was cut back to two submissions a day when I was at 170,000 points. I finally said F it and deleted the account. Since starting this one, I've had the downvote fairies visit on more than one occasion, but the difference is being put in time out, not being able to post comments or replies, as well as meme posts. I submit a feedback form advising of the situation, request comments be reviewed, and usually have full capability within the hour.

Chances are, you won't get a reply from a feedback form. I've only heard of one person that has, and he has a pro account. Myself, since my feedback works, I can only say, watch what you say, and how you say it. The what will trigger the time outs, the how reflects on how it's handled.

If I have further problems where I suspect a mod is involved, I've come up with a third solution. I'm holding back on mentioning it, but it should be effective in clearing up the flame wars.

I heard back from a mod once...

I think the submissions throttle might have to do with submission downvotes. Just like they say your comments are curtailed until you improve your comment reputation, only they don't tell you. It could come from number of posts flagged as well. Some people flag posts for little reason, but there must be a reason.

I'm surprised my looping snowman wasn't flagged when I posted it last week, but I had the capability to put the NSFW label on it. With memes, the only option you have is put it in the tags.

I got back 3 submissions whn I was about 300 shy of 100,000.

And I had submitted a feedback form weeks before asking why I was reduced to 2, no reply
