100% at first I was like wow is it because they just rated out that they made a new accountI'm just quickly going through the posts and scrambled the letters of retread in my head.
So it sounded like ret@rd... and it was quite a double take on my part, while at the same time I'm thinking: "you'll get in trouble but you go Marie! "
Do you mean when your "Friend" joined here, posted a spam message in an inappropriate forum and then got banned?When you have been banned, what recourse do you have to explain yourself ?
Have you not found the terms of service? Don’t violate the terms of service, don’t be a spammer, don’t sell something out of a selling forum.Yes my “friend” did do something wrong & got him self banned. But it was an honest mistake, my “friend” just wants to try & sort it out. But there doesn’t seem to be much help ? What sort of forum / club are you, that you can’t give some advise ?
This is how I imagine just about all moderator messages going, at least internally.Have you not found the terms of service? Don’t violate the terms of service, don’t be a spammer, don’t sell something out of a selling forum.
Edit: Ah. You were selling outside of a sales forum. Therefore you didn’t bother learning how the forum works, and asking questions.
If you notice, there is a whole forum for tanks and bands, and a sales forum for that same forum. That’s where you need to sell your widget.

There is a “contact us” option, but you didn’t seem to look hard enough so I’m not going to point out where that is.Your forum is large & involved, & to a beginner difficult to get right first time.
Your message said “ you couldn’t put spam on the site, & you would have to contact a moderator, if it was a mistake. But how can you contact a moderator if you cannot access the site, if you have been banned ?
This is the question, there is no nefarious intent ment.
