Title: Banned / disabled login accounts..do they still receive forum emails ?
Post by: ChiBitCTy on November 22, 2020, 11:17:07 PM
I know all to well that when you’re perma banned you still receive emails when messaged. What about banned and disabled login ( edit- “terminated” accounts, to use proper terminology ) do they ?

I dont know if Users and Accounts can send and receive personal messages after they got banned !
But i know that banned Accounts can still change there trust list as i have seen this a few times.
Maybe it would be good that banned accounts only can receive PMs and nothing more.

That's one tough question. Since if someone were to respond, it's likely to assume he or she has been ban evading since it's one-account-per-person ;D

I could be wrong, but if the email still remains in the database like on every other forum, that user should still receive emails but that's that.

You mean locked accounts like Satoshi's and Lauda's... right?

I think they would still be able to receive the email alerts if they received the PMs if the email address remain linked to the account.

In Lauda's case, some members tried sending him PMs but it turns out they were blocked as well

It seems that Lauda's account is already blocked. I tried to send her a farewell PM but I received this error: "User 'Lauda' has blocked your personal message.". I doubt she blocked specifically my PMs lol, as we never had any fight.

But i know that banned Accounts can still change there trust list as i have seen this a few times.
Really? Wouldn't this lead to trust manipulations by some angry users who already got their accounts banned?

Exactly. My guess is terminated accounts are automatically blocked from being able to send messages to. Though like in Laudas case I could easily see them doing something so that no one would be able to send messages. So ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Banned accounts can indeed only receive and read private messages, but cannot reply as they are banned from making any form of 'posts'.

If they are banned, it's more than likely that their trust settings would not count on any level of DT. So even if they can change who they trust or ~, they cannot manipulate the system or influence their trust score (by adding those who left them positive feedbacks to their trust list)

Sorry, it is not possible to contact Lauda.  theymos himself is unable to contact Lauda; and this was true even before he banned the account “in the same way as satoshi (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5282911.msg55409865#msg55409865)”.

Not guessing here.
