It must be really frustrating for a forum user since 2014 to make a serious mistake and simply lose all the work done during that time.
I can tell how that frustration is, having suffered it once for a careless slip I made. It's depressing to say the least. I don't know the facts of OP's case as they didn't table the exact thing that happened. However, I would encourage them to make their appeal revealing to showcase what good they've been able to do as contribution to the forum.Quote
But, now I was intrigued about this case. The user is normally only banned permanently if he repeats his mistake, or am I mistaken? If so, then you have repeated the same error over and over again.
I'm even wondering why it took OP a month before their appeal. I guess they already have that defeatist mindset or they believe they've repeatedly done this wrong and now realized they aren't likely to get pardon.Quote
The user with a banned account can't log in, can he?
So how is he active today?
Perhaps OP is on permanent log in. It doesn't matter once a user set their account to permanently remain logged in because that account will show active whenever he opens that tab but he won't be able to post from it.So how is he active today?
