Title: Forum said I was banned for spam? WTF?

Found it kind of odd as I try pretty hard to stay on topic, provide helpful posts, and talk with other lottery guys...
we'd at least get a warning right?

I'm worried that a few bad people are making more and more restrictions for everyone come out and it's hurting those who are following the rules..

Are you sure we can't restrict pm for newbies, and where they post and how often, but have people who have been around for awhile not be limited?

You're using Tor. You must expect to hit banned IP addresses from time to time.

Thanks. I've seen the open proxy one many times but never the spam one. This one looked different almost like the forum actually banned me. I was worried that someone broke into my account and PM'd people or something and I couldn't see the sent messages.

All this stuff happening lately isn't good for my paranoia!
