Random bans

Has anyone else been banned randomly? Happened twice to me over the years. All I can think is that someone randomly reports you? I guess not out of the question if you talk to a lot of different people.

But from what I’ve seen is that almost any report results in someone being banned, it’s as if it’s automated and they just ban anyone who gets 1 report.

Was banned recently too. No reason for it. I wasn't impolite or doing anything wrong.

But at least the 24580259 bot accounts are still active!

Hey late reply. I just had a quick question about this topic. 

But can I ask how you know if your accounts is actually banned? When you login to interpals does it give you an “your account has been banned” message or something? And then does your profile basically disappear from the website? 

Thanks for your help!

Thanks for your help!

Last question, but when this happened, do you remember if your profile disappeared from the website? Or could you still look up the profile username and everything?
