is this fair?

Reader's Digest version: Guy posts my private, personal contact info. LJA gives him a chance to remove it per ToS' invasion of privacy rules. Guy refuses. Guy gets suspended. Guy is upset, dramatic, and vengeful ( Read more... )

Fact: Just about any time anyone comes to this community to complain about getting in trouble, they deserved it. I haven't heard of the Abuse Team fucking up in a long while now.

Yep, that's what I'm thinking. :)

Thanks for the support.

how about someone hijacking your old emails and cliaming you hijacked there account and getting you suspended, then sending LJA the emails I got from said email host saying I did indeed get hijacked and still keeping me suspended as it's not "proof".

I'd try asking here, as I can't really tell exactly what your problem (or question) is.

I want to reply with "you are too stupid to see them" but I would feel bad about that.

I don't think most contact information counts as "private" and think the LJA/TOS policy about revealing contact information as an abuse of privacy is preposterous.

However, if it wasn't in your profile, or any other public place, at the time he made the post then maybe they were right. That might mean LJA has to do research when they get these requests, but oh well.

I make an exception about email addresses only because of harvesting spambots.
