Sorry to hear that, Goranko. I didn't realise you'd been banned.

I've had the occasional warning about spamming, which surprised me at first.. Eventually I realised that if I post a link to a site which is actually selling something, they consider me to be promoting that site. They should make that crystal clear, so that we don't accidentally offend.

One area where I offended was writing about books. I would sometimes link to the book. That's OK on a site like FantasticFiction, but if I linked to the same book on, say, Amazon, where it was for sale, that is classed as spam. (It really depends on whether the bots pick it up)

You could always return under another name.

Complain..not that it will get you anywhere.

They won’t let me write answers...

Goranko Sirfurryanimal

I do not know what I wrote wrong.

Dan

Did you copypaste answers from other websites, joke answers, or it can be for other reasons.

Goranko Dan

No.

Goranko Dan

I tgink that someone reported my account.

TheOtherTink

I never bothered with Quora, so I don't know.

I think they want people to use their real names; not safe on the internet.

Goranko TheOtherTink

I used my real name on Quora.

Sirfurryanimal TheOtherTink

They clearly do not believe I’m called Sydney Jones..which i’m not.

Didge TheOtherTink

They've dropped the reason name policy, Tink. I used my real name for a few years, but now I'm just 'Dave'.

@ SFA:  But there must be 1000 Sydney Joneses in Wales!   :D :D :D

Didge TheOtherTink

And then some!

They could have a thousand of the younger ones join the army, and call it the Sydney Jones Regiment. :)

Sirfurryanimal TheOtherTink

:)..

Never thought much of that site. I joined once years ago but sure didn't enjoy it nor gibing out private info. You're probably better off in the long run.

Didge Rooster

Hey, Rooster. It's been a while. 

Yosey persuaded me to join in 2017, but when I signed in I discovered that I had been a member since 2013. Dunno how that happened.

Hey Didge! Good to see you again! Has been a long time!!!!

I don't go to Quora much any more, Kninjanin...but I was glad when you found me there, and steered me back to I Have Solved!
