Older account got banned
on: August 14, 2024, 08:38:45 PM
So I have an older account created in 2022, named "friendliestdoggo". Haven't been checking on that account for a while and recently logging back there seeing it got banned without expiration date  ???
I'm not sure what rule did I accidentally broke? Or what could be done to help that account situation?
Have to resort to making this new account to ask because I literally can't to anything there with the old account. Seemed like banned from all forum and everytime I try to access the forums it just direct me out of this website.

If this was done by someone other than yourself we have no way of knowing. Looking at your previous posts to this one there were no red flags.

It is very possible that your account got hacked and thus the banning :salute:

I am glad to see you back  :cheers:

If anyone sees something like that being posted under my account, rest assured that it's not me.  Also, send flowers to the house because the wife would probably see it first and send me to the great beyond with my cast iron frying pans.

Additional questions: Is there anything I can do to prevent problems like this happen in the future? Is there any option for two-factor authentication?

No 2 factor authentication at this time, but it could be something we look in to.

Its also possible to un-ban your old account if you would rather use that?  Obviously I'd strongly suggest changing your password if you did!

Good to see you back!

Thank you, would be appreciate to have the ban on that account lifted. And I should change the password there also.
Would be appreciated to have some measures to prevent hacking in the future too, thanks for your consideration on that.

Good to see this worked out! :tu:

This is a good reminder to, as Steve said, use a strong password.
