1. All he has to do is send an email.
If it was for hitting the spam filter.

4. OK, I know that rehashing something isn't always a good idea
...but I've no idea what you are talking about. Can you tell me, without too many specifics, what caused this? I thought he was a long term member in good standing?

9. Can someone explain this to me? (I'm dead serious!)
How can anyone post too fast? I am fairly swift at the keyboard, thanks to my ergonomic one, and I sometimes hop around to the assorted posts, and I NEVER KNEW there could be DANGER from that!

13. This is how it happened
yvr girl had a thread about kicking threads, so I started kicking her thread really fast, like 5 posts in 15 seconds. It activated the auto-destructo DU spam filter, something they have here to keep freeps (and knuckleheads like me) from flodding the board with crap.

15. OH!!!!!
Well, that is kinda funny. You were having a bit of fun with her, and by so doing, you accidentally proved that a safeguard worked.

Well, all's well that ends well, and you have a new reputation to uphold or live down--never mind "banned in Boston!" -- you've been banned at DU!

20. hehe I had that happen to me, once
just aftet they put in that feature. It was late night. I had gone outside to smoke and was in a bulky coat. Posted a response to the thread - but the sleeve rested on the "return" button of the computer. I saw it after I posted - and tried to post on one of the dupes (there were about six) - to find I was tombstoned. I sent a note to the admin (Who were out for the night - it was rather late) - and had to wait for the morning to come back.

One DUer gave me a particularly hard time for having been tombstoned.. albiet unintentionally and very shortly.

10. I've gotten auton00ked by the spam filter once before
Fortunately, I was reinstated less than three hours later. It was on a "I'll donate a nickel to Kerry for every post on this thread" type thread, too, so I had a good reason to spam.:)

16. That happened to me once.
My computer did something funny and posted the same thing 5 times. I went to bed and the next morning I was a member again. It was a shock to see that tombstone on my profile though.
