    Default The Truth

    Hi Guys, Back again.

    I was blocked without reason or a reveiving a mail from the webmaster of this forum telling me why.
    If this is the way this forum works, what is it worth. A lot of members seem to be fake.

    I am awaiting an answer for why I was banned.

    I think that if you guys canīt face the truth you better close this forum.

    Alentejo

    P.s you can block me again but you can never stop me posting

    Because I'm cleaning up your spam I can't find why you were banned to begin with but I'll leave this thread to let others know what the reasons might be.

    If you have put live links to self promote yourself (or certain other things like other forums, etc.) you are going against our rules & regs for this forum. All good forums have rules which keeps the forum clean and keeps the good members returning.

    Some people come on here boldly claiming, or giving the impression, that their suggestions are factual when they cannot prove such a claim. This hurts those that might not know any better. Any member that keeps posting unproven ideas as fact, esp. when warned, can be banned.

    There have been other reasons for being banned (not related to real estate, content theft, pure spam, etc.) but these are usually the big ones. Webmaster allows members to question him and his ideas but he owns this forum and if he feels you're not playing fair & following forum rules, he'll get rid of you. Mods can do the same thing.

    This forum is well established and banning a few bad apples isn't going to hurt, but probably help, the rest of the members that do abide by forum rules:

    I don't know what you mean about members being "fake." We have had instances of a bad member creating multiple accounts but it can be traced by ip address & all these accounts will be banned. We've also had more than one member from a particular company joining simultaneously & promoting their product by pretending to be a real consumer. These self promotional members are easily caught & quickly banned.

    Once you've been banned you will be banned again for creating a 2nd account without prior permission & I see you have been banned on this account already. You are certainly going about this the wrong way if you truly do want to be reinstated.

    Maybe if you calmly wrote a note to Webmaster & waited for his reply (he's expecting a new baby), you could have received a reason & possibly be given a 2nd chance.

Next door, Lemont homes are the priciest in the southwest suburbs and have held their value, even appreciating while prices in other areas have gone down.

    How immature. I have about 50 emails in my inbox from the forum saying this guy has posted... all saying the same thing.

    Nick, I've deleted all the repeats. Very childish, bad temper. After going through these posts I do realize that alentejo kept posting the same live links to his seo guy in more than one post. He was given a warning by me for doing that & I even left the urls in but just got rid of the live links.

    Maybe he's the seo guy & that's why he made the remark about some members being fake.

    I banned him - the reason - him and easyweb and a bunch of other members were filling up the forums and hijacking threads with self promotion for some crappy SEO website. It was an obvious organized attempt to try to solicit business from the forum. I will ban his IP
    Starting LEC 7 soon but it won't be called LEC 7 - LEC 2012 coming soon!
