    It's easy to avoid being banned. I have done so for nearly 8 years. 
    1. Read the Adobe Stock Contributor Agreement which you signed and make sure you understand it. Then reread it regularly, because they change it from time to time.

    2. Read all of the Help pages which you can find by clicking the Learn & Support link at the bottom of your contributor page. Refer to these pages often, because they are occasionally updated.

    3. Follow Adobe Stock Contributor updates by reading the blog, joining the Discord channel and checking in with this forum from time to time. 

    If you follow the rules, your account will not be suspended. Not knowing the rules is no defense.

    Read the TERMS of Agreement and submit only original content to which you have 100% ownership.

    Do not spam or attempt to game the system in any way.

    I don't consider this "avoiding". It even didn't cross my mind that I could be banned. I'm interessted in creating high quality assets. I think that helps.

    Exactly. I don't think I'd ever heard of accounts being banned until last year when Generative AI assets started to flood the system...

    There were some, for fraud and for IP violations. But not massively. Not as now.

    Don't do anything that is against the rules. Most contributors get banned because of:

    • spamming,
    • fraud by buying own assets,
    • copyright violations
    • multiple accounts.
