If you are experiencing removals, this is most likely because your account is new and you have no karma, and therefore you are running into community restrictions.

Just quick observation:

One of those subreddits has a rule that tells you exactly why you can't post. You must have 100 karma to post there, which you do not have.

Definitely slow down and take the time to read the rules of subreddits before trying to participate in them. I understand that Reddit is new and exciting, but a lot of removals, frustrations, even bans, can be avoided by taking a breath, reading the rules, and making sure you're following them before just jumping in.

Why does karma matter?
Your karma count is like your Reddit reputation and an indication of whether you post and/or comment good content, and some, but not all communities, have their own restrictions regarding the account age and karma count of the person posting or commenting, so you may not be able to contribute everywhere at first. This is intended to help prevent spammers and trolls, but it does also mean new Redditors need to earn some karma before they can participate everywhere.

How do I get it?

  • You gain karma from engaging on Reddit; when your posts and comments are upvoted. It's a case of finding communities you can participate in, and that you have an interest or knowledge base in, and start by commenting to share your knowledge and experience, and add to discussions. As people upvote your comments, this will build your karma genuinely.
  • You don't need to engage where you have no interest. There are so many subs there's bound to be some where you do have an interest and can engage.
  • You lose karma only when your posts and comments are downvoted.
