I have now been permanently banned from said forums so what can I do about it.... I am unclear as to what your expectations are from the abuse team — keep in mind that the abuse department won't share what steps they take to address the issue you've presented to them, so short of the forum being deleted you as an individual will not be made aware of what actions were taken. Also, bear in mind that it's been the holiday season here in the US; operations are slower than usual and that is to be expected. That said, I am quite baffled with this latest message about " now been permanently banned" — wasn't the whole reason behind this thread that you had been banned in the first place and could not access what you needed to make a report? I was banned but have since learned its permanent

I have now been permanently banned from said forums so what can I do about it.... Regarding the ban, you can read this Help Guide article: Help I was Banned.telling me to **** off and go kill myself... I can't say with certainty whether being told to " **** off " would be considered 'bulllying' by the Abuse Team, but I suspect it would not, and would fall under the discretion of the forum staff. While it would not be tolerated on the Support Forum, other forums set their own standards regarding friendliness and cordiality. On the other hand, " go kill yourself " seems a bit over the line (in my opinion) even as a reply to someone who was being disruptive. If you have a link to a post where that occurred you should include that in your Abuse Report. Of course this will be a judgment call to be made by the Abuse Team, not a topic of debate on the Support Board. Please keep in mind, the Support Forum is not a venue to air grievances or resolve forum disputes. In those matters, the most you can expect is information regarding reporting procedures. I'm aware but when laws are being broken it needs to be said and the fact its not being taken seriously. I wanted other options. The threat was in a private message and I cannot access it anymore and also swearing when aggressive is abuse

If we know this, we may be better able to provide you with the correct steps to take in order for PB to take action. Ultimately, PB can only do so much. If you don't really know what you want to be done + you aren't able to provide any tangible record to support your statements, PB is not able to take action against a user if they cannot verify that anything has been done that is contrary to the TOS — not necessarily because they doubt you, or that they don't want to assist, but because, quite simply, they need tangible evidence in order to act.

I might be out of line here, but I have to wonder why you want to participate in a forum where you are being abused and banned so often. Maybe try to find a more friendly forum?
