I haven't banned anyone in quite a while. If I banned you, you'll know the reason.
What I have done is not allow certain people to bypass the spam filter. If your IP or email address are in a database as being a spammer of being banned at other sites who use the same database, you don't make it past the spam filters.
No, I don't make any exceptions. Sign up with your real email address, don't use a dodgy VPN, and don't spam the forum with off-topic links and the likes.
Let's hope you'll behave yourself and I don't need to ban you. However, as I said, when I do ban people they know exactly why they're banned.
I've also moved this thread to the appropriate sub-forum. Please make new threads in the *most appropriate* sub-forum. This has nothing to do with "general Linux".
