    It really depends on how much you are making a month. I have some friends making $10 a month and they're still fine. How much are you making from 15 visitors a day?

    Atleast three or four people here have had there account re-instated!!! But if it's from clicking ads or breaking some TOS rule, you'll never get reinstated!!! (Yes, it is possible to get the notice when you don't even break the rules!!)

    Well, I made a whopping $30+ in >10 months and google did not disable me.

    Now earnings jumped from that to $300+ in <two months, I am still on... I also received the first payment :)

    Though, the reason for the sudden surge is that I made a new site with >60000 pageviews per month, in the first month, with a reasonable CTR.

    All I am going to add to this is by reprinting Google's email to you in the first post, it showed you have never read the TOS

    I realize its a form letter that can be found anywhere but If you were serious about getting your account back, I wouldn't have even done that.

    As far as the original question of not knowing of accounts getting reinstated, that would be because of one of two reasons:

    1.) They never asked for it to be reinstated
    2.) They violated the TOS

    Accounts suspended in error always get reinstated. Someone mentioned grammar and although that may not be the deal breaker, it doesn't help your case if Google can't figure out what you are saying.

    If English isn't your first language, have someone proofread all your correspondance and run it through the spell checker.

    If English is your first language, by sending them such a poorly written letter, you might not be the publisher they are looking for. ie. - If you can't take the time to write out a well formated and concise request for reinstatement, how much time are you spending developing your sites?

    What danger are you talking about?

    There is ZERO evidence to support the idea that Google has EVER kicked anyone out of the program for low traffic. They recently added language to that effect, but that was certainly added to give them more options when dealing with publishers who cross the line.

    People need to stop with the nonsense. There is no reason for google to remove low impression publishers, and actually would be a very poor long-term strategy.

    fryman I owe you an apology.

    When I joined this site last month I thought you where very hard on people that posted that there adsense account had been banned.

    But after seeing just how members post about there account being disabled I can understand your use of humour, guess its either laugh or scream at them.

    aeiouy,

    I never have seen evidence that Google have done this but people like ContextWeb do it all the time.

    I know what the TOS says, I refered to it in my post and why it was added.

    Nobody can be sure of anything... but there is no reason for google to push out low impression publishers. The cost of keeping them in the program is negligible. The potential for those low impression sites to one day be big impression sites is high enough to warrant leaving them in. Consider it a farm system for the future of sorts.

    The people that need to be concerned are the ones gaming and cheating the systems. Those sites are a liability to google and the program. Not getting enough traffic is not a liability. And it allows google a broader base for their content program.

    People like to blame everything but what they did for getting kicked out of the program. Before they added this language it was because someone else clicked on their site or targetted them. It is a bunch of excuses from people that don't want to admit the truth. Low impressions is simply the scapegoat du jour for adsense.

    And AdSense Advisor has said that they have never banned any one from low traffic.

    Just from a purely business standpoint (not talking about right or wrong), it is hard to see a company getting rid of a viable source of revenue without due diligence.

    However, the case becomes harder to make if you aren't generating much revenue in the first place.
