Default So... anyone know why Porssh951 (John) was banned??

So I bumped into John this afternoon in Kingston and he told me was banned from Rennlist?!?!?

Anyone know why? I looked through his old posts and (big suprise) its nothing but friendly posts. Nothing out of line and he isn't selling anything...

I'm just a bit shocked a lifetime rennlist member - who is a GREAT guy to boot -has been banned indefinitely.

I don't know if this is IB's doing and I haven't had any negative feelings/complaints towards IB since they took over, but if this is how its going to be...pelican doesn't charge a dime and has virutally the same knowledge base.

but it does seem that his profile was visited by IB Advertising ?? I'm really biting my tounge (fingers) here, lets see if IB will sort this out.

porshhhh951 was banned by IB Advertising by mistake! His account has been restored and apologies issued. On behalf of IB I am sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Best,

How do you "accidentally" ban someone?

I assume it works like my spam folder and blocks all the users who attempt to post "Shoez fo saile" threads or similar by banning people that use certain words or phrases.

Andy, apart from using juvenile language (edited) how do you connect "by mistake" with accidental? I am told it was a case of mistaken identity.


Quick Reply: So... anyone know why Porssh951 (John) was banned??
