You might have forgotten to comment/upvote/post/whatever else it requires for a day so it might’ve been reset

There's been times where I go 3 or 5 days without being on reddit and my streak still doesnt reset. Its pretty random

My account was hacked and banned, took a week to have my stalker efforts finding a real life mod pay off, and I didn't lose my streak in that time.

u/Mineplayerminer 1d ago

AFAIK, your entire account is frozen until the ban is lifted, so are the streaks along with it.

Til. Nice one.

The hacker doomscrolled on your account 😂

u/cynical-mage Helper 1d ago

Oh, now that would have been funny 🤣 side note, I didn't know that you could get hacked while online, and actually be online at the same time 🤨

My 200-day streak got Interrupted by a 7 day ban, and then it just reset the streak. It's now 33 days.

That sucks 😔 I thought I'd lose mine for certain, each day I was coming on and it was reminding me to not lose my streak, which was just over 800, frustrating! Currently 878 days, so definitely didn't reset during that week 2mths ago.

u/Kraymur Helper 1d ago

The system they use for this is broken for some people, I went a week or so without any activity on Reddit and was able to keep my streak. Then two weeks later of consistent use I lost my streak randomly.

u/Lowcrbnaman 1d ago

I dont think I did that. But if that's a case is there any way to reset it to earlier days?

See you in a year and a half

u/Exact_Direction_3740 1d ago

Yeah, I've had similar issues before with tracking days. Sometimes it just takes a bit for the system to catch up, but a restart usually does the trick.

u/kingapple927 1 1d ago

Nope, you just gotta restart from day one sadly

u/bencos18 1d ago

sadly not

Reddit streaks are fluff, they don't do rollbacks

u/ChirpsMcPrime 1d ago

Only SFW content counts towards your streak. Perhaps something along those lines?

u/ekcojf 1d ago

Open up your profile > go to achievements

Above the streak column, do your 400+ day streak appear, or does it say 5? If it shows 5 it was probably reset.

u/Lowcrbnaman 1d ago

Its showing 5

u/Random_Guy479 1d ago

What kind of typo gets you banned bro? 😭

u/SickboyJason 1d ago

It was on an oil field sub talking about riggers.

What's wrong with writing about people who dress up like a large toy cat from the Winnie-the-Pooh books?

u/ycr007 helper 1d ago edited 1d ago

Your Streak has reset to 0 and basically you’ve started again five days back.

Did you get booted off reddit for 7 days or did you miss one or two days of activity?

If there’s no activity from user on SFW content (vote, comment or post) for a period greater than 24hrs / calendar day in their timezone then they’ll get a notification & warning that streak is about to be lost and if user hasn’t registered any activity subsequently then the streak gets reset to 0 and they’d have to start over.

It's not cumulative

u/Gloglibologna 1d ago

Ive had a 7 day ban, streak didnt reset. Ive also gone several days without being on due to camping or traveling and it still didnt reset.

u/ycr007 helper 1d ago

If you say so. There’s plenty of anecdotal tales from users in the three or four Achievement related subs that indicates 3-day bans preserve Streaks on some cases but 7-day bans never do.

u/Gloglibologna 1d ago

I have absolutely no reason to lie. Im just stating what ive experienced

u/Lowcrbnaman 1d ago

I got no warning

What is that Alumni Mod achievement you have? 🤔

u/Puzzled-Fisherman566 1d ago

Warum lässt man sich von so einen dummen Zähler drängeln? Was hat man von dem Count? Ehrliche Frage. Es muss den Leuten ja etwas bedeuten wenn man fragt wie man ihn wiederherstellen kann. Zeigt man den dann stolz rum? Oder gibt es eine bubble wo man dann zu jemanden achtungsvoll hochschaut weil er 500 Mal in Folgetagen auf Reddit war? Ich verstehe das alles nicht so ganz.
