Have you been banned?

    We often hear stories about people getting banned (I just had a firsthand experience), but I'd like to get a feeling for how many on this board have been banned.

    Everyone that reads this please respond with a yes or no in the title.

    Thanks.

    Read quite a few threads...all just stories of people getting banned. I'm looking to find a rough estimate of how many internet marketers have had one of their sites banned. Thought this would be a good place to ask for Y/N responses...guess I was wrong.

    Why didn't you just delete the post then..?

    Come to think of it, how can you post in the wrong thread?

    Nope, haven't been banned... You're probably going to have a hard time getting accurate numbers because it will likely be biased - more people who have been banned will respond than not. A more accurate way to get numbers would be to find 100 people who have at some point had an adsense account and get them all to give you a yes/no answer. If you do, let us know the results.

    I have been banned and reinstated again on appeal.

    There was a traffic surge to one of my forums on that day. It went from a nomral of 200 visitors a day to over 2000.

    I still do not know what was behind the traffic surge.

    A more interesting question would be who has been banned when the reason was not their fault. Those at fault know why they were banned.

    No, not ban.
    If you're banned, shouldn't be able to login to your account.

    The people that have been banned will complain here about it, so you will know.
