Too many rejections, can you get banned?

Hello, I want to ask. Can we get banned if we get rejected too many times? thanks for the answer.

In theory, yes. Someone with consistent rejections (let's say more than half, with no indication of showing improvement over time) is costing Adobe more money than Adobe is making, by paying moderators to reject images that will never be sold. Exact numbers are not known, and I don't know of anyone ever posting here saying that they lost their account due to too many rejections. But it seems logical that it can happen.

In this case, of the 100% of files I sent, only 25% were received. Before I submitted, I checked several times to see if there were any wrong images. But it was still rejected for quality reasons. Is there a written rule for this problem of too many rejections? I tried reading in the contributor guide, but couldn't find it.

So a 75% rejection rate, which is very high. You should post a couple of your rejections here, and perhaps we can point out where you are going wrong so that you can hopefully start improving your acceptance rate going forward.

You should be learning from each rejection. Carefully inspect those rejected images to understand what is wrong with them. If you can't figure it out, you're not looking carefully enough. While a 75% reject rate in a single batch won't necessarily put your account in jeopardy, continuing that trend is a waste of your time and Adobe's abd could possibly considered spamming.

Oh, if I could count the times contributors have posted here saying they checked their assets carefully, only to still have them rejected. 🙂 Remember...it only takes ONE issue to result in a rejection. Just one. When someone posts an image here asking why an asset was rejected, we often point out several problems just to cover the basis. But moderators don't have time to delve into the finer details. They will reject as asset on the first problem they see.

A 50% rejection rate is still OK. 10% is good, 2-5% is great. 

You should improve very soon, if you analyze your rejections and learn why your assets get rejected. Without doing that, you should really look for a different hobby.

You can learn a lot from studying our comments here.

You need to put more effort into your images to correct possible problems before submitting. Right now, you are wasting your time. You need to turn it around to 75%+ acceptance rate.

Thanks Ralph, I think it's better to stop hustling for now and take advantage of the time to study. Thanks for the suggestion
