Hi, I have intentionally left this post to allow others to post, but as you got no replies thought I would give my thoughts.

I haven't heard of people complaining of mass deletions, that could mean
a) there are none
b) I am not told

But usually I hear a few things.

Look at your accounts, any finger prints? IP / usage? Were they all doing the same thing? Were you annoying users? Comment / DM spam? Were you repeating the same actions over and over and over again (same search, performing actions on same items)


9/10 the above is more likely to be the cause than SC mass deletions if there are not similar reports everywhere

Which is what everyone says. "high quality accounts, used carefully with quality IPs"

Then when pushed admit they had the cheapest proxies, 10 accounts per IP, ran than at full power 24x7 spamming all kind of nonsense

So if you can explain what "used as normal" means. And just to mentioned, it's irrelevant that it used to work, or you have been doing the same for a while. Things change. Otherwise things would still be like they were in 2012 when you could create 1000s of accounts on a single IP with a single gmail and spam comments / groups all day long without issue.



Things change. The sites are not static, always changing, updating, testing, trying to detect automation / bad behaviour.

Just because something worked last year, or even last week, don't mean it will work forever.



Regards,
Martin

Martin,

I have noticed a drop in followers as well this week. I lost about a 100 overnight. I guess Soundcloud is cleaning up once in a while.

Cheers
Claudio

Yes they do that from time to time. The spam accounts that follow users and try to get you to go to their mother account get wiped out every so often
