    Last year I joined a transport forum focused on LUL with the same user name I have on here. Some months later, I chose to delete my account. One account voluntarily deleted.
    A few weeks ago I decided I would like to rejoin. I apparently made the mistake of re-registering with my real name rather than my previous user name as doing so seemed to have caused a bizarre reaction from the Admin..
    I just received the following e-mail from said forum

    Our staff has opted not to approve your account, and therefore it has been removed. The following reason was provided for why your account was not approved:

    Multiple account deletions - Now asked by ADMIN to not rejoin.

    I am not a kid, I am a mature middle aged man. I do not play games. I voluntarily deleted my account ONCE. I never imagined a transport forum could be so intolerant of someone leaving, and then changing their mind and deciding to return.

    Surely this should be taken up with he forum in question, and not by us?

    What Matt said to be honest. Being a transport forum though, there is an off chance that one or more of us might have links there? Would you care [and be permitted by Mojo et al!] to reveal which?

    It probably will be, but ...

    This is a community. Sometimes it's like a virtual pub. When you're down the pub with your mates, what do you do? You talk about what's happening in your life. That's how I view what's happening here.

    If you have a problem with another forum, please take it up there - we dont want difficulties elsewhere being brought up here. Thanks.
