Forum Support Area for Unregistered Users & Account Problems

Hi,

I'm posting in reply to:

https://www.unix.com/forum-support-ar...-register.html

imnotaspammer is me.

I'm posting in new thread because it seems I can't reply as I'm not registered. I guess this is a reason why no problem report here gets any feedback after initial answer.

@vbe:
I'm not sure what forum rules have I broken. The no-email-posting rule is for not receiving support privately, when other people may benefit from knowing the answer, I guess. There is no explicit "do not post your email" rule anywhere. Also, I don't know what "IP" do you mean. My email address is public, just as my website and I consider this as a part of my "internet identity".

About my nick... . Well this is a nick I use as "dpc" is almost always too short, dpc.ucore.info is also my OpenID etc. and this is the first time someone / any antispam automate considers this a spam. Some disallow dots - then I use underscores. If you have any problems with this please explicit disallow dots in registration as "you're a spammer" message is just misleading and wastes time of those willing to access this forum. Not to mention that "nofollow" HTML attribute was created for a reason an I don't think having a url as a nickname will be a benefit for any spammer, anyway.

At this point I'm a bit irritated that I takes so much time to get access here and if the only problem is that your registration rules are political broken (in my opinion they are) and you enforce it with misleading ways I'm cool with just not using it. It's your playground and your toys.

Have a nice day. Bye.

OK, you should be able to register now.

For some odd reason, your IP address is in the StopForumSpam database, and that causes me some problems since it obviously should not be.

Our apologies.

If this type of problem continues, I may stop using the anti-spam registration add-on, since it seems to make many mistakes !
