Banned as admin, help please.

Recently, I joined a forum and recieved an administrator spot for merging my forum with said forum. I completely deleted everything and redirected my forum there. Apparently, now I am banned from that forum, which is a violation of their agreeement and somewhat of an abuse that I would like Forumotion to take seriously. I feel like I was tricked into this and nopw every single one of my users have gone over there- without my users, their forum would be dead by now. I brought their forum into life and I am taking this a bit personally.

Having said what I have, I would like Forumotion to tell me if I can do anything or if Forumotion will/can do anything. Their forum is http://clubpenguin.bforum.biz .

Thanks for reading, KL.

Unless it was a technical error, Forumotion cannot really do anything about that as it is the Founder's choice as to what happens to who on their forum.

If you have been banned, I would suggest going to a proxy site, and entering the forum that way. When you get in, create a new account and PM the Admin/Founder who banned you and ask why.

I'll try using my brothers computer, I don't really want to get a proxy for whatever reason.

Edit:
I would also like to add that I dedicated time to that forum by adding some Javascript, adding profile options (which took my fair share of time) and actually making the forum look decent.

You can use a free web proxy. These are usually quite safe and I quite often use them for this kind of situation. HiddenCloak.com is really good to use.

Will it remove any of the passwords I have saved to my internet? Or any of my browsing history/favorites?

No. A web proxy temporarily changes your IP address so you can access sites that have blocked your original IP address. A web proxy does not go through your computer deleting files, copying data etc.

Well, I would rather not use one anyways. Any other support?

Ill sign up,mention something and never go on again....Who was the admin that banned you?

The only one left now, his name is happy. I can't believe I ditched my forum and put hard work into that place to just get banned.

I am going to let Forumotion take care 'a these guys. Let them suffer.

You really have no options - you deleted your forum. The reason you were then banned should be obvious - the other forum got your members and you were no longer needed. Welcome to the real world.

Short of using another computer that does not connect in your home, there is nothing much you can do, and I doubt your PM would be responded to anyway. If you don't want to use a proxy as Scamite suggested ... that's all you can do - use someone elses computer.

Write the experience off and start a new forum and learn from a bad experience. Forumotion cannnot do anything to help you - you did this on your own.

Well, thanks for the help Saurus. I will send him an e-mail asking him why I was banned.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I needed to be blunt. It sucks, but there's really nothing that can be done by forumotion.

Well, that's ok, I'm not going to get int@w3bz sad. I'll let them grow up by themselves. They'll most likely start trashing me all over the forum, thus giving me a reason to report an abuse. Or I can just start up what I've been planning for a while and get it going on the web.

Option two, please. Thanks for the support you guys, you gave me some good ideas as to how to confront this- personally, I'm just going to let God take care of things.

This is a violation of the Forumotion Terms of Service. They is why your forum account was deleted. This cannot be undone.

I don't understand what you just said.

You obviously hadn't read the previous posts. Please read the posts before you make your own to avoid confusing members. Thank You.

Wait, can I report this forum to Forumotion Abuse Report Center (?) for copyright infringement, since they're technically now copying my idea by using it without my consent?

Thanks, I'm going to read over it.

have u completely deleted ur forum or just deleted everything on your forum. if not u can get it back lol

I deleted everything on my forum.

ah so u didnt delete the actual forum? you can go into security and hit restore how it was a couple days ago (i think its security i cant look atm cuz my forum is down)

Did you delete it via your Admin Panel and typing in "DELETE"?

@Fayko: This was not just a couple of days ago.
@Scamite: I deleted it via the admin panel.

ah ok im sorry (tried to help didnt do to well =/ )

Well, the good thing is that you tried, because I didn't know that until you told me, so technically you did help me if I ever have an emergency.

If you deleted your forum via the Admin Panel, it is gone from Forumotion's Database. There is now no way to prove that your forum was copied. Sorry.

Technically it wasn't 'copied' as much as they are currently using my idea that I worked on, which I was considering on my forum.
