   Cardisaposted 14 years ago

   I understand that our girl, one of our favorite hubbers was banned yesterday. She was not told why she was banned. Today is her birthday and she cannot post on the forums because of this ban.
   
   Does anyone knows why she was banned?

      Often, it is the amount of reports that will get one banned. The content of their posts is irrelevant to the "flags" that go up when a certain amount of reports are placed in the system. The moderators don't bother reading the posts, they just automatically ban the person being reported.

         Well said. I think it's obvious, that, given a fair, objective review, that there is only one logical conclusion, and that is that this ban is totally unwarranted and should be withdrawn immediately...

            Whatever is going on, I can't believe it would be for longer than 3 days. She is probably using the extra time to write more hubs.

      I don't think she was asking HP staff, or you.  She was asking anyone involved in the relevant threads why Kimberley might have been banned.   And I don't think this type of thread is prohibited ??????
      
      
      To answer the question -
      
      The threads where I saw Kimberley last she appeared to be behaving within limits - although she does have a tendency to fire up and get banned, so maybe another thread I did not notice ?

      Its not the 'e'. Its the image that broke TOS (wish I'd seen it now!)
      
      And correct me if I'm wrong, but the length of forum ban is related to how many times you have been banned in the past, not for the severity of the current violation.

    The text in the thread that references the snipped image does seem to indicate that the tackiness tripwire was activated. To get seven days, it must have been a really good one. Unless IzzyM is correct.
