    Exclamation Unban

    Hi when I first registered here I posted a message in 'introducing yourself' that included links to my personal sites. I then got banned by howefield with a spam infraction, and the next user account I made got banned too. This is my 3rd attempt, not sure if I've been banned by IP or email address (I used a gmail +alias as I normally do).

    Can you please take me off the blacklist as I sincerely was not attempting to spam the forums, I'm a Ubuntu noob and I just need a little help with my graphics card. Many thanks.

    Re: Unban

    I guess you learnt a bit of a lesson there then - don't start an account somewhere like here and make your first post links to things that might well get seen as spam

    We get a lot of spam and the majority of links in first posts are spam of sort sort whether it be Windows software, people thinking we'll let them link to their blogs to get page hits or like yours.

    I can reverse the infraction in the first account - and disable this one and the second or leave you with this active account. Which would you prefer?
