Why Was My Member Account Deleted, Closed, Or Banned?

[dgridley]

All member accounts are continually monitored here at theBubbler to ensure your experience here is a safe and pleasurable one.

We constantly review new member accounts to protect against potential fraud, spam, and scams, as well as any profile inaccuracies or suspicious activities.

If your theBubbler member account was deleted, closed, restricted, or banned, it could be because of any number of reasons including:

Invalid Registration Data

To guard against potential problems, we ask that you register with your correct county and zip or postal code. If you do not live within the US, choose Other for your county and leave the zip or postal code area blank.

If we detect inconsistencies in the information you provide at registration, we reserve the right to delete or ban the account without notice.

Spam Classifieds/Posts/Guesbook Entries/Blogs

We typically have a zero tolerance policy regarding spam of any kind. Links to (but not limited to) pornography, pharmaceuticals, warez, etc. anywhere on theBubbler will result in the member account being banned without notice.

Scams/Frauds

Any suggestion that a scam or fraud is being or about to perpetrated will result in the member account being banned without notice. Criminal activity will be reported to the proper authorities.

Excessive Flaming/Trolling/Insubordination

Membership and posting on theBubbler is a privelege and not a right. As our guest here, we expect our members (and staff) at all times to comport themselves with moderation and respect toward others.

Excessive flaming/trolling/insubordination will not be tolerated and may result in an infraction or the member account being banned.

If you have any questions or concerns, please use the Contact Us link at the bottom of the page or PM a moderator or admin.

Thank you for your participation and support here at theBubbler!

I delete or ban people almost daily for the reasons outlined above..

Overall, theBubbler tends to be pretty spam-free as a result of our member policies.

I wanted to bump this up and remind people that I check all registration details to guard against spam, spammers, and scammers..

Simply, if you put incorrect info in your registration form and I find details that are inconsistent, have been flagged elsewhere, or are missing information, you stand a very good chance of having your account banned.

We check usernames, email addresses, and IPs against a spam database, as well as check homepages and signature links for inappropriate content.

We don't want or need links that send our members to phishing sites, porn, or unauthorized affiliate links.

In any case, each day brings several new "members" that register or attempt to register and have to be banned for not observing our guidelines.

Hope this helps!

Bravo! I'm glad we're 'different' in that we actually monitor this stuff!
