I then tried my GMAIL account%2C and again it says it%27s an invalid email address.%0D%0A%0D%0ACan someone please tell me what%27s going on here%3F And why%3F 1|1|RE%3A Multiple account problems %28wtf%3F%29|gregdotca||20:02:12|01/13/2008|Ok%2C after reading through your guidelines the fact that my GMAIL account wouldn%27t work makes sense%2C but it still doesn%27t explain why my own personal domain email addresses didn%27t. 2|2|RE%3A Multiple account problems %28wtf%3F%29|dabo||02:14:48|01/14/2008|I%27m just guessing%2C but I would expect that while the moderators may be willing to answer why your ID was banned%2C divulging site programming secrets that are obviously working inasmuch as you cannot figure it out is something else entirely.%0D%0A 3|3|RE%3A Multiple account problems %28wtf%3F%29|gregdotca||03:19:04|01/14/2008|%22divulging site programming secrets that are obviously working inasmuch as you cannot figure it out is something else entirely%22%0D%0A%0D%0AUmmm%2C yeah%2C whatever that%27s supposed to mean. 4|4|RE%3A Multiple account problems %28wtf%3F%29|syren||08:21:06|01/14/2008|It means%2C you are banned.

The question was asked and answered - there%27s no need to keep piling on. Head over to OT for stuff like that.%0D%0A%0D%0A 13|1|RE%3A Multiple account problems %28wtf%3F%29|gregdotca||02:09:24|01/18/2008|Thanks for the helpful response mysticwolf%21 As you suggested I%27ll contact the moderator that banned me%2C but I%27d also like to air my gripe here.%0D%0A%0D%0AThe short of it is%2C I signed up for an account a few years ago to talk about Joe Schmo%2C and there%27s really no reason why I should have been banned. None. And it%27s pretty frustrating when I try to come back and find out why%2C and have a ton of people ragging on me and saying stupid crap%2C especially in a HELP forum. Not sure why this surprises me though%2C as it seems to be the way that 99%25 of all online forums are run.%0D%0A%0D%0AI admit%2C I didn%27t read all the guidelines%2C I just read the part about why certain email addresses aren%27t allowed. Why didn%27t I read the whole thing%3F Because I%27ve never once in my life done anything on a forum that should get me banned%2C which is one of the reasons I%27m confused about this. If everyone read every set of guidelines%2C AUPs%2C privacy policies%2C etc. on every site they visited%2C they%27d waste 1%2F2 their life. I have my own guideline%2C which is %22don%27t do idiotic sh%2At or be a complete d%2Ack to other users%22%2C and it%27s served me well for 30 years. This is literally the first forum I%27ve ever been banned from%2C and on some level I find it amusing because I was here simply to talk about a crappy reality show.%0D%0A%0D%0A%22What it basically means is there are no secrets from Webby on the internet. Webby knows all the tricks. Don%27t mess with Webby.%22%0D%0A%0D%0AUmm%2C that%27s why I%27m here%2C to find out what I supposedly did to get banned. Last time I checked having ONE account on a site and talking about a stupid reality show wasn%27t a reason for everyone to turn on you. Now I understand why you have over 16%2C000 posts%2C because you obviously just waste everyone%27s time with dumb posts like this. Not too helpful for a help forum.%0D%0A%0D%0A%22It%27s hard to come to any kind of conclusion based on your link%2C because it appears that the post%28or posts%29 you made which caused problems have been deleted.%22%0D%0A%0D%0AAnother reason I asked for help on a help forum%2C because I can%27t go back and see what I supposedly did.%0D%0A%0D%0A%22multiple account%22%0D%0A%0D%0AI had one account before%2C it was banned%2C I have a new account to find out what happened. One active account. Get your facts straight.%0D%0A%0D%0A%22and then there%27s the whole %22this happened over 4 years ago%22 thing.........%22%0D%0A%0D%0ASo I should%27ve just gone to another site and not shown any loyalty towards this one I guess%3F Actually%2C come to think of it%2C I kinda wish I had done that.%0D%0A%0D%0AI can%27t even remember why I came back to this site%2C but I thank some of you for reminding me why I stopped coming in the first place. Douchebags that try to boost their ego by talking %23%23%23%23%23 about people they know they%27re never going to see face to face %28I%27m not talking to all of you by the way%2C the douchebags know who they are%29.%0D%0A%0D%0AThis is what cracks me up about forums%2C everyone%27s first responses are always negative and they try to get in as many jabs as they can so they can feel good about themselves. Pretty sad if you ask me. You do know that I%27m not that bully that beat you up in high school%2C right%3F%0D%0A%0D%0AI also can%27t wait to see how much I get flamed for this post. Come on%2C let the immaturity shine through.
