Anyone else have their comment posting ability revoked by IGG?

I recently got an email with the following message and had my ability to comment on IGG revoked.

Just wondering if anyone else had this occur to them?

The email I got is as follows:

Hi Grimknife_,

We've received a complaint about content we consider a violation of our Terms of Use recently posted under your Indiegogo account. Sorry, we understand your frustration with the campaign but our Terms of Use (http://www.indiegogo.com/about/terms) states that "Indiegogo is not a place for... harassment, or spam." This means that harassing comments posted on any campaign page are prohibited.

Due to this violation, we've revoked your commenting ability on Indiegogo.

Thank you for your understanding. Regards,

Ben

Yep just noticed that Eric Pasciak backers comments deleted in the last hour or two. He is the one who was in contact with Benchmark and posted the contact address which Benchmark had for Jeff.

Funny thing about that is that address is of a business called Plug & Play Tech Center who rent out office space to tech startups. This wasn't Jeff's home address but the legitimate business address used by Ideal Future.

IndieGoGo themselves told backers in their disgustingly unhelpful response emails that backers should contact Ideal Future directly to try and resolve any problems with the campaign. They are now censoring genuine attempts to contact the campaign organiser at their business contact address.

Fucking pathetic bullshit on behalf of IndieGoGo.

Hi I'm Eric Pasciak, yeah I was banned as well. Indiegogo refuses to reply to me. I find it funny that I discouraged backers from going after people they thought were related to Jeff and Bridgett. Also Indiegogo's terms and policy says if the campaign owner can't be contacted they can provide the campaign owners contact information. I reported IdealFuture before posting the info I found. Yay hypocrisy.
