"i didn realise you could get blocked from sending emails on here " Yep! Sending info to the Boss! It was only for two hours, but that meant we couldn't email two couples on here! But site names in private emails? Perhaps a little too far | |||

"Are you saying that a site you mentioned in a pm got you a two hour block from sending pms?" Yes, I sent a message via a profile and the system picked up the web site name in it and promptly banned me from sending messages for two hours. I do think it is a bit much that they monitor our private mails in this way.. Buy they own the site... | |||

Surely that stops the message though. | |||

Yes it stops the message, but I am not happy about my private mails being vetted in this way! It does mean that I will go back to using off site mail once initial contact is made, unless they stop email addresses next! | |||

"All ive ever had is (this website address is blocked) but thats only if you havent sent any messages to the people before, think its two or three messages then it lets the site come up, but never heard of it blocking you," Yep! BIG red letters at the top of the page telling me I cannot mail for two hours because of the Site Name I used.. | |||

"deleted to rephrase I recently had a 48 hour forum ban for linking a UK goverment addreess on a frourm thread, its easily found, and verified , I emailed admin to saying what the link was etc and it was obvious from the address, they ddin not even bother to reply, even to say sorry you broke the rules, penalty stands " They do say you can appeal, but then in another place tell you they don't or can't read all mails! As all mails go to the same place, it seems like lip service! | |||

Mistakes and mistjudgements occasionally do happen. We do ask that forum ban complaints are directed to us via the CONATCT link. If you contact us about a forum timeout we will look into it. If you don't hear back from us you can assume we think the timeout is fair . If you treat the forums as a bit of fun, you won't go far wrong and you're really unlikely to have any problems. Closing this now, any specific mod issues feel free to contact us directly. Admin x | |||

" They don't monitor mails Rumour, it is automated and if some sites are blocked for spamming reasons thats when it happens, not that someone is sat reading your mails watching for a link. | |||

Check the chatroom logs. I got chucked out of there and tbf admin reinstated me when i contacted them. You check your logs. It is a matter of record. | |||

Either way, please stop with the comments about your bans ( sounds like you get them everyhwere) and if you want to dispute them go to the proper place. | |||

The true "story" of the ban of which i posted was in fact rescinded after contacting Admin through the proper channels. I'd be amazed if the word "snow" did not appear in the log or my "appeal". It should be simple for you to check the truth of the matter. | |||

"Seems a reasonable site precaution to me, I'm sure nobody would want to be recieving spam and adverts in their inboxes. If this sought of thing goes unchecked then that's where it eventually leads. I appreciate that recieving an automated short term ban would be annoying, but is there a better way of policing it?" I think so too.....although being the butt of HPC's jokes for two hours wasn't so good. | |||

" Rugby MFM any confirmation yet about my previous ban being true and not a story? " Not from me Mushroom no. If you want confirmation of what you were banned from chat from, contact Admin from the CONTACT button. Thats my last bit of the same advice, I can't keep repeating myself. | |||

"Always through the CONTACT page for any bans. and if that has been tried, without reply or success?" Yep, cos I've contacted admin about a ban which I consider to be extremely harsh and never heard anything back. | |||
