If its like you described you were account farming with one word posts then you aee lucky that not all of your accounts got banned permanently.

Wow, your account have 196 potential activity (210 if you could post this week). What a waste of accounts. however, spamming here is not allowed. Even Legendary members will be banned for spamming. You're lucky that you still have another account that is unbanned. There is almost no chance for that account to be unbanned. Use your current account, don't spam and it'll be fine.

I was hoping for a warning or something, didn't seem at the time it was perma ban worthy, otherwise I wouldnt have done it, you can check my profile posts there

It does seem a little odd that you were perma-banned for your first offense of spamming, that doesn't usually seem to happen. Have you had that account banned before, or been banned on alt accounts before? Sounds like you may have been farming accounts, and if you've been banned on alts before for spam then I think this perma ban was totally justifiable.

account farming has to be using multiple accounts with plans to sell them in the future (like how farmers grow and sell things) what OP was doing wouldnt be considered account farming

Stop spamming for your sig campaign.

The sig spam was directed against user tarsua. It doesnt matter in which sub forum you post the rules are enforced everywhere. 1 word post are really really bad just dont do it for whatever reason. There is a sticky on top of this sub which is the inofficial guideline for the forum. Should you sometime not be sure just visit that thread.

Ok seems like I got the harsh side of a ban and I dont even do sig campaigns or account farming or have never been banned with a message stating how many days, only a perma ban for the 20 short spam posts in the altcoin announcment board.
Anyone know how to get this situation checked, I tried emailing the email provided months ago not sure if they recieved it so I stopped bothering, then I just discovered these meta forums around yesterday and figured to give it a shot here, lmk thanks

I did pm'd them earlier with a link to check out this thread so was waiting, yeah once I saw the warning I pretty much knew then and there to not do that again the only prob is it was permaban. And better yet I'll do a public apology,. I'm sorry for spammin posts, I learned my lesson, if you can unban my account would be appreciated, thanks.

This is simply not true, I remember a guy from the altcoin section who was really butthurt for having his topics removed by mods and he literally flooded the altcoin section with 1000 spam topics bashing the mods and staff, his name was spotnik I believe with hero status and he is still posting today All I'm saying is I would atleast want to get checked and see if I can get the acc back
