Once the account recovery is queued, it's reported on
security log and it's also recorded on
BPIP.
Very helpful - thanks, @hosseinimr93.
...Automatic ban and locked account are definitely different - meaning you can still log in to your account even though it has been banned, but not when your account is locked.
Tell me if I'm wrong...
No you can't login, account is not accessible anymore after lock,
this is what i have seen with my account after I locked it, when I tried to reach it using my profile link, I have seen message: "account locked"
Of course - when you lock your account via the email you received, then no one
[including you and the hacker] can log in to that account anymore. But trust me - if your account is not locked but your account is only banned, then you can still log in with some restrictions including sending PMs and make post.
Consider for example, this account:
DancilStatus: Profile has been Autobanned at 6/6/2019 9:22:10 AM - Last Active: August 28, 2024, 06:48:13 AM
