Subject: Pam Author: You can still post after you're banned, that's why his number keeps saying 1. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 22:28:33 07/04/01 Wed This came up when I got banned last summer. I didn't KNOW I'd been banned, and I had my cookies turned on so I was never logged off of DP. I kept posting, and she kept deleting the posts. It wasn't until after I logged out, then tried to log back on that I wasn't able to post again. When you ban someone, it prevents that name from logging on. If they've never logged OFF, you just have to manually delete threads until they get logged off somehow. I imagine when she banned him, it cleared out his posting tracker, and every time he posts, it starts him at one again. Pam [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

[> [> [> Subject: okay, Author: Joanne [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 22:37:25 07/04/01 Wed So once Mitch logs off he won't be able to post again. So, short of a power outage he could be there forever! What happens when you try to post when you are banned? Do you get a big red circle with a line thru it or something? :-)

[> [> [> Subject: Re: oops LMAO Author: Pam [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 22:55:40 07/04/01 Wed I don't know how I stay logged on. LOL. I THINK that when you log on at DP, there's a little check box that says something like "remember this password" or something like that. If it's checked, you just stay logged on. I think what happened with the post count is this...Paula banned him, which erased his posting history. He comes back, he's already logged in and makes a post, and the server sees that this is his first post (since his history is gone). Paula deletes that post, and he's back to zero again. Over and over and over... LOL If you're banned, when you try to log in, it will say something like "user name not valid (or found, or something)". Pam
