Hi, I have a quick question, I was banned and I do not know why. So if at all possible could somebody tell me why?

Tough to PM a Mod when your banned! Being banned has happened to many on the forum, including me. Software takes over and makes poor decesions!

Josh has put a link on the home page (when not logged in) titled "Need Help? Email us!" An Email to Josh should get things rectified.

Why ban someone, what is the reason a software labels someone to get banned? It is a word, or what?

Sorry, I don't know the reason the software does what it does. Its unintentional most times for real tort forum members that are not spammers.

It sounds like a glitch in the entire system that acts out as a safety measure and that is just what it is. Avoid the bad and seek the good.

from what I understand about the software, it bans certain people (wrongly) based on their signature and some people who legitimately have websites and such, I am sure josh could explain it better.

It was funny yesterday because as soon as I replied to this Email I was banned, I did not like the feeling lol.

We usually eliminate the duplicate user, so its a good idea to not spend too much time on making it "pretty" with avatars, bios, etc. And its easier to "ban" it than to actually remove it from the list.
