TheAdminZone hates me

[ThatFox]

So, I decided to register earlier in TAZ forums to see If I can find more people to hire in posting services since the 2 people here that I've paid for upfront hasn't started yet and some others that I've placed an order hasn't gotten back to me yet. Was going to look for other ideas and tips as well on the other forum sections specially on the 'Getting Started' area but when I was about to post I noticed I was not logged-in anymore, so I tried logging in to my surprise it wasn't registered anymore, so I guessed I might have been deleted for a reason which I don't know.

Anyone experienced this kind of pseudo-cruelty before? 😕

Are you sure you didn't register with the wrong email address or something like that? I don't see why they'd delete your account, unless they had a reason to. 😕

No, I didn't since I saved the email and password on Chrome's saved passwords so I'm pretty sure it isn't the case. I'm just as perplexed as you as to why they decided to delete my account x_x

I think you log into TAZ with a username and a password, not an email and a password. Sometimes Chrome will save the email instead of the username.

You might try checking back and try logging in again.

I served as a reviewer there and for asking a simple question of "Is my website up", I got banned. It was a webmaster forum, and I guess they don't like competition, no matter what. They said that me being a staff member made it worse, and instead of it being temporary, it was permanent. So I'm honestly not sure if they did or not. 🙁

If you provide your username I can check the member list 🙂

Just tried again right now. Tried both my Username and Email as login and then my Password. My username there is the same as here 'ThatFox' and it's threw out 'The requested user 'ThatFox' could not be found.', so yep they definitely deleted my account with no reason at all 😕

I guess your best bet is to contact them. There's a contact us link at the bottom of their site. I doubt they'd delete your account, even if you broke the rules. They'd probably just ban the account instead. 😛

Might not just end up not going with them because of that. I registered mainly because of the post I saw here (viewtopic.php?f=22&t=127224#p1266802) so I was curious and might as well find posters there which doesn't seem to have any as far as I've searched before I got deleted.

Thanks anyways :great:

Fair enough. 🙂

You mentioned that you have already paid the posters and they aren't starting. If a couple weeks go by and they still haven't, you can send me or another admin a PM and we can contact the member to see what's up. Also, you may want to consider paying 50% upfront instead, or working out another arrangement that provides the poster with more incentive.

I also strongly suggest this. And like Cosmic said, if a good amount of time goes by and they still have not done anything let an admin know so we can get the ball rolling on those things for you. 🙂

Some of them has already started and only 1 remains. I pay them upfront to build trust but I review their profile and posts a bit first before I commit to it. The only thing I require is that they contact me and do the job on a timely manner since I consider long-time replies and no work done even if I paid for it already as a bad deal (not necessarily bad, but still bad for me). I value time specially in deals. 😀

@LunarSouls
Thanks and I consider doing that as well but not at this time since I at least give a 48hr up to 72hr leeway for my providers to respond and start work before I raise the alarm.

TheAdminZone is known to ban people who advertise sites with a similar niche. I have not heard anyone that had their accounts deleted but I wouldn't be surprised if they did that.

I had a PM read because of ^. The must have a mod to check for the word "admin" in a domain and then read through those PMs. Or the owner is on a power trip and enjoys reading through PMs. After I posted what had happened on theadminzone forums, I was banned + topic deleted.

I'm actually allowed? back on the forums now. I was a moderator for AnotherAdminForum which was merged into TAZ so my login and posts got moved over. Sometimes I visit the forum, not often. I don't really care, I haven't had any interest in running forums for a while.
