I just checked some of my MySpace accounts......they are all still there except one.
For some reason they have banned my personal account that has never sent out a bulletin or comment and and had less than 100 friends and was the only one with a valad email address :redface: .

The "business" accounts with thousands of friends are all good.
Makes you wonder how they make decisions like which accounts to ban and which to leave alone.

That sucks, I wonder if my 100+ accounts are still alive

what do you mean by "personal"? Did you have any "ads" for your sites at all?

Maybe IP check and they plan to ban all accounts associated with whatever they consider "spam"?

lol, check to make sure the account wasn't phished and used to spam ;)

No ads , nothing at all....It may have been banned because I set my age at 101, I remember receiving a message about that and was told to change it. I can't remember if I did or not.

Thats about the only reason I can think of that could cause it to be banned.

It definately wasn't phished. For an account to be phished you have to log into a window using your username and password.
I have never done that.

ahh yeah the age thing. Yeah, that makes sense. Sucks though.

The age thing is why you got zapped.

I guess it hurts their demographic profiling if you are at the very end of the bell curve.
