Check a Reddit account's age, creation date, and post and comment karma. Understand the result and prepare for the community you want to join.
Read your result
Start with the creation date, then the total elapsed days. Next, read post and comment karma separately. Those fields explain the public account snapshot; they do not tell you whether the next post will be accepted, seen, or approved.

Reddit supplies a creation timestamp. We subtract it from the time of the lookup and count complete 24-hour periods. The creation date is displayed in UTC so a local timezone does not move it to a different calendar day.
Months use about 30.44 days and years about 365.25 days, so those displays are approximations. Use total days for a closer reading. A missing, invalid, or future timestamp is shown as unavailable, never as a negative age or a valid new account.
Age answers “when was this account created?” Post karma and comment karma describe different contribution scores. An older account may have little activity; a newer account may already have thoughtful replies.
For example, an established account with mostly post karma can still encounter a comment-karma condition. This is an illustration of why the fields differ, not a rule for any named subreddit. None of these values verifies a person's identity.
This lookup returns account facts. It does not inspect a community's private AutoModerator configuration, and account age alone cannot determine permission to post.
Reddit describes several eligibility criteria and does not disclose specific age and karma thresholds in its Poster Eligibility Guide. Use the current community guidance as your reference.
Read existing discussions and answer questions you can help with. Avoid repetitive replies aimed only at raising a number. Find communities relevant to your interests and check their participation guidance.
Read the removal notice and the rule it refers to. Check format, topic, links, and promotion rules before rewriting. If the reason is unclear, send one focused moderator question with the post context.
Verify the spelling first, then retry after a temporary error. If the profile itself is missing, check public visibility and review Reddit's notices. Low karma or a lookup error alone is not proof of a restriction.
