1. All he has to do is send an email. |
|
If it was for hitting the spam filter.

4. OK, I know that rehashing something isn't always a good idea |
|
...but I've no idea what you are talking about. Can you tell me, without too many specifics, what caused this? I thought he was a long term member in good standing?

9. Can someone explain this to me? (I'm dead serious!) |
|
How can anyone post too fast? I am fairly swift at the keyboard, thanks to my ergonomic one, and I sometimes hop around to the assorted posts, and I NEVER KNEW there could be DANGER from that!

13. This is how it happened |
|
yvr girl had a thread about kicking threads, so I started kicking her thread really fast, like 5 posts in 15 seconds. It activated the auto-destructo DU spam filter, something they have here to keep freeps (and knuckleheads like me) from flodding the board with crap.

Well, that is kinda funny. You were having a bit of fun with her, and by so doing, you accidentally proved that a safeguard worked.
Well, all's well that ends well, and you have a new reputation to uphold or live down--never mind "banned in Boston!" -- you've been banned at DU!

20. hehe I had that happen to me, once |
|
just aftet they put in that feature. It was late night. I had gone outside to smoke and was in a bulky coat. Posted a response to the thread - but the sleeve rested on the "return" button of the computer. I saw it after I posted - and tried to post on one of the dupes (there were about six) - to find I was tombstoned. I sent a note to the admin (Who were out for the night - it was rather late) - and had to wait for the morning to come back.
One DUer gave me a particularly hard time for having been tombstoned.. albiet unintentionally and very shortly.

10. I've gotten auton00ked by the spam filter once before |
|
Fortunately, I was reinstated less than three hours later. It was on a "I'll donate a nickel to Kerry for every post on this thread" type thread, too, so I had a good reason to spam.:)

16. That happened to me once. |
|
My computer did something funny and posted the same thing 5 times. I went to bed and the next morning I was a member again. It was a shock to see that tombstone on my profile though.
