Strange Piratebay reaction...

[omelette]

I attempted seeding my first torrent ever on Piratebay with the Deluge client, and being new to it, messed up - I thought I could have my seeded stuff in a folder other than Deluge's Download folder, so my 'Seed' was actually showing up as "Downloading" in the client. Anyway, within 10min of posting this duff seed on Piratebay, I found I was logged out and could no longer log back in. Worse, they had deleted every comment I had ever placed at Piratebay! An email to them unsurprisingly elicited no response.

I'm wondering if this over-reaction (imo) is typical, and if anyone here has experienced something similar.

You are not having much luck, what has this got to do with an Ubuntu support forum ?

Sorry, I thought I was posting in General Discussions.

That was most likely a bot doing that.
It probably noticed something was off.
