Still no reply, I've emailed again to see if I can get any kind of response.
if you aren't able to reach the site admins via email, some of them are members on this site. you might try and PM fitzsteve here, although he hasn't logged on in a week or so. maybe he's on holiday somewhere and that's why you haven't gotten a reply yet?

Hi,

I registered on Amibay the other day, then a short time later I was banned having not even had chance to post anything.

This is what I see when I login and I got something similar by email.



Has anyone else had this problem?

I've emailed to ask why I've been banned without ever having done anything, literally nothing - not figuratively, LITERALLY nothing.

Does anyone know how to contact someone to get it fixed, since I don't even know what the "error" is.

Andy

let me count the ways :)  1984 over there or something ;)

fitzsteve is no longer a member of Amibay (his account was closed at his own request).

Yes, Amibay has lots of rules, and it's the most common reason why some have issues with site. But you don't have to accept these rules and you don't have to proceed with account registration.

I have little sympathy for the whiners and complainers who never should have proceeded with account registration in the first place.

Erm, I don't have an old account and I haven't even had a chance to break any rules yet so was this directed at me?

I get banning people for doing something wrong but how can I be banned for registering?

Hopefully it will get sorted.

Why do you think it's directed at you when it was a reply to the Marcin1962 post?

It's already been explained to you that the Amibay security system will auto-ban any new account registration under certain circumstances. Why is this so hard to understand?

It's not hard to understand that someone might get banned but because of the line:

I'm not whining or complaining, I'm just trying to get registered. I cannot think of anything I've done that would have fallen afoul of any of AmiBay's terms and conditions.

I've emailed the provided admin address a couple of times to contact people to see what went wrong. Nothing happened about it until davideo was kind enough to have a look but couldn't resolve it and has passed it on.

Emails weren't being responded so I created this thread in the hopes that one of AmiBay's admins might see it and help.

So far I've got say that I'm thinking of giving up on it :( because it's a crap system as all I've done is:
1. register.
2. instant-perma-banned without explanation.
3. emails ignored.
4. posted here to get advice and hopefully get it fixed.

Hello,
I know that this is an old topic, but I have the same problem.

I have created and account on Amibay a while ago, and when I login, I receive the following message:

You have been banned for the following reason:
 No reason was specified.
  Date the ban will be lifted: Never


I have wrote them several times at admin@amibay.com, but I didn't get any response.


The user name is "Blu_Wave".


Does anyone know whom should I contact? I appreciate your time.



Thank you!
