    I did a search on your nic and this is what I found...

    Looks as though you requested your account be closed and only admin will/can reinstate it. They don't deactivate accounts arbitrarily, meaning that you probably asked to be inactive on that account and I doubt they will be willing to reverse it as I understand it is a painstaking process.

    I have no clue how I inactivated it :S

    Is it because I hit unsubscribe on an email? I thought that was to stop receiving updates for that article :S

    No, only I know the password and I use the account on my home computers. I also use it at school but the school computers don't keep a history and when I log out of their computers everything is deleted so...

    I don't have any retarded friends that would do something like that anyways... They all know I'd kill them :p

    How do you know the school computers don't keep a history?

    Most aware sys-admins keep a log of all users activities. If you have been accessing AD from their network during class time, or (in their opinion) to partake of unsavoury information then somebody there MAY have logged in and requested you account be closed.

    It's actually more common that they would like you to know for them to run keyloggers and internet activity logs.. I install such systems for schools on quite a regular basis. They are often the same software that is used to restrict/filter certain sites.. and log users who try to access such places.

    From what I see, aD is glitching. BTFan was account closed per request, and several others were suspended do to non-finctional e-mail.

    just did a search & btfan is active not inactive. the others could be email server filters blocking ad like comcast.

    Ya I got that a couple of times before my account became inactive :S

    Oh and I don't have Comcast... I live in Southern Ontario so I have Cogeco which is definitely not as bad as Comcast :p

    I wondered why BTFan wasn't sending me 100s of PM's begging to be mod, he'll have asked for his account to be closed. As to suspended emails - http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_jump.cfm/611968/3699162

    I asked BTFan what happened he said he didn't request his acc closed or restored...

    Haha, that guy's such a tool.

    CKhaleel, piece of advice:

    Stop trying to play the guy who thinks he's in the know about everything under the sun aD related and flounces about the place like anyone gives a toss. Been there, done that; it's not cool.


    creaky, ddp, still holding the fort then? Heh..

    You'll have to wait for an Admin to come along and see if they'll re-open your account. Or, you could PM one of them (dRD or Ketola, most likely), and ask the same question.
