Board suspension, ToS sec. 25 (a)

[trenrogue]

Forum URL: tren-kisayaoirp.proboards.com/index.cgi

I'd like to know why my board was suspended? The main administrator for it is never online, and has left me in charge of the site... I've been away for the last two weeks, and came back on tonight to find out that it's been suspended. I was on two days ago on my ipod, and the site was working just fine, and I had recieved no PM's.

I would like if someone could explain the reasoning behind the suspension to me, and perhaps reactivate the board?

Email the admin of the forum you are running. Have him talk to one of the proboards admins. He should have received a PM explaining what he did under section 25a. Because you are not the main admin you can't do anything about it.

Hello,

A Proboards Admin is the only one that can handle this type of post.
This type of issue is normally handled Mon-Fri appx 9-5 so most likely Ricky will respond to you in the morning.

Normally a pm is issued but I don't know if it is in ALL cases.
At times a warning pm is issued to the main admin & also staff members with the ability to correct the violations.

The FACTS of what was done and what can be done now, if anything, will have to come from a PB admin.
Occasionally they respond at night but if not, they'll reply for sure tomorrow morning.

Best of luck to you.

Thanks Pikabo... I'm off to bed now.... Hopefully you're right and there will be a reply when I wake up... I hope this gets cleared up....

Hi,

It appears there was a warning issued to the main admin account, as well as your 'trenrogue' account via PM, but the message was not read in the time provided. We can restore the forum for you on the promise that the message would be read and complied with within 48-hours; let us know if you'd be willing to do this

[trenrogue]

Of course. I'd be happy to comply, as long as it's within my power to do so.

[CheatAreZee]

Thanks, the forum should be back online for you now. The message will be in the PM inbox of your account; if you have any questions at all about what's asked, feel free to email the address listed at the bottom of the message and they'll be able to assist further

[trenrogue]

I'd like to know why it's only NOW that I'm getting this warning, instead back when the first few threads were made.

[CheatAreZee]

Simple answer is we host millions of forums and are not able to monitor every forum every second of the day to alert you of something as it happens. Ultimately it's up to staff of the forum to ensure that the content is in line with our policies. Had that been done before hand, we wouldn't be having this conversation today.

mkay, well, it might take a little longer than 48 hours to remove them all... im copy/pasting them all so I have them on record... I was planning on putting them all into stories eventually.

Part of the agreement is that offending content is removed within 48 hours. I don't think it's possible to negotiate more time. Forgive me if I'm wrong, I'm not trying to speak for Proboards. But I think it's wise to try your best to remove it all before the window closes. :3

[trenrogue]

HEY! I was in the middle of removing the offending content, and it was shut down again!

This will be the final time I can restore it for you, but it should be back online now. If you need more time in the future, feel free to email the address listed at the bottom of the message you received to get in contact with our abuse team and request more time

Sovreign85 was right. If the content isn't removed within that time, it is shut down again. However I believe members have been able to get their forums brought back once more if they weren't able to get it in line with the ToS in time but were working on it.

I did not receive a notice for a suspension. I only received a notice about the Beta version. Please send reactivate the board and I will see to it that whatever the error is will be corrected.
