My original username chrisburke turned up banned today.. No explanation, no warning, banned forever... And for the life of me, I don't know why, as I can't recall anything mean ivedone or said othe forum in a very long time... As far as I know, ive been very civil lately... Can someone please explain... I'm sure that this account will get banned too. But please, before it's banned, please let me know what ive done, because I'm really at a loss...

If I was banned for something I did, that's fine, I can take it... I just want to know what I did, because as I said, I'm at a loss

Did you ask the mayor? And why have you been reinstated under almost the same name if you've been banned?

I've sent him a message.. as for question 2.. i must have already had the second account created, because i went to create a second account so I could post to figure out what was up, and my username was in use.. so i figured it must have been me.. did a password reset, and it was..

Back in business.. Thanks mayor

The attachment shows what happened.

Someone posted spam, the spam message was replied to and quoted, thus reposting the spam link.

ehMac spam security software then took over when it was reported and spam deletion went into action.

Please, please, PLEASE do not quote spam links.

In fact, please don't reply to spam at all, even with comments like "Spam reported" etc... . Please just report the spam, and one of the mods will get to it shortly. I'd rather have 10 people reporting the spam with no replies, then just 1 person reporting it with a reply to the spam in the thread.

Thanks.

ah, collateral damage.

Good to have the clarification regarding spam, and that it's possible to get yourself nuked at the same time. :D

It's kind of like seeing someone going 160 KM's on the highway, and then speeding up to 160 KM's yourself and then phoning the the police while booking it to report there is someone going 160 KM. :)

Kinda. :)

Back in business.. Thanks mayor

Considering its a great app, and I know mayor said its one of his top 5 apps, and it's something for this forum.. Why would I be banned for that..

Also.. Really? Their are people on this forum with really long and annoying signatures, and you're going to try and complain about my sig that has 6 words

Sits this one out from here on not wanting to get banned too ;)

I'm assuming all the "second account" comments are lame slights at me.. I didn't actually know I had a second account.. When I got banned, because I couldn't pm the mayor to figure out what was up, I attempted to create a second account, only to be told "there is already an account associated with that email address" which came as a shock, as the email address was somewhat new, so I asked it to email me the info, and, sure enough, I had another account.. I'm guessing I forgot that I had an account, and the created an account (chrisburke), now to find that I actually did have an account to begin with
