Banned

Kharis · 06-03-2008, 04:09 PM

I just got a private message from someone who's got Banned under their name. What is this? Should I avoid them? Have they been slung off the site?

Maybe they were posting a lot of spam or some offensive stuff?

Dear Kharis,
Usually on this site, if someone is banned, it is because they have done something pretty darn offensive, but it really is up to you whom you choose to associate with in cyberspace and in real life!! We have had a couple of truly offensive or truly crazy individuals who were banned with the majority blessing
Regards,
A'isha

If a person is banned he/she can't post, reply or send PM. So if you got a PM from someone it means he/she is not banned. Please send me the message you got.

I've done this. It was just a bit of an odd message, and the person has Banned under their username

Thanks Kharis for posting this. I got a private message from someone who was banned, and I had no idea what it meant until now.

Yes, I got one as well, directing me to a Buddhist website, the sender when I looked later was banned. The person concerned had posted on the forums some four times.

I have gotten two with the Buddhist website reference with the identical wording from two names. I am glad to see both names banned.

It's not only happening here, this link to buddhist websites, it is happening on other forums too, usually a new member with only one or two posts to their name. It just makes the mind boggle as to why.

I did not even go to the site. For all I know, I go there and then there is some virus or spyware attached to that link. It is always beeter to be safe if you don't know the individual or their intentions.
