I am unable to flag any post as I am banned from flagging for seven days? I have raised 48 helpful flags and had 3 flags rejected (2 of them were yesterday), I understand why the 3 of my flag raised were declined however I have a healthy flag ratio 48:3.

banned from flagging three declined flag


How is it fair to ban me from raising flags? @moderators

The flag ban is an automated network-wide process which the moderators have no control over, you can see the details here: https://meta.stackexchange.com/a/175405/132874.

In short, it doesn't look at your total flag ratio, rather it just tracks your flags raised over the last week and warns/blocks you from flagging further if a certain threshold of declined flags is reached. Since it's a rolling check, the ban should never last longer than a week, and possibly be lifted early if pending flags that haven't been processed yet would also affect the count.
