Having been banned by the tyrannical FCN bot twice in a month resolved that issue with screenshot posted in ban appeal but now am muted and unable to post in the rooms....can still whisper and Pm but seriously...wtf
 
Your post in the thread FCN Bot bans was deleted. Reason: We're not going to discuss anti-spam tactics for scammers to view
10:57 AM
You have my email address nd you also have access to my profile inbox. So can I take it no action will be taken as FCN bot mistakes my Ip with someone else? How does that work when Ip are reported to the authorities for illegal activities
 
Only you have access to your inbox.
There's no action to take.
There is no mistake.
Certain bans are very wide reaching—among other things—network bans. Some types of bans are a necessity in order to combat spammers, scammers and potentially illicit activity, and may be carried out by fully automated means which could be targeting multiple factors simultaneously.

Your previous posts were replied to and a potential solution was suggested. Spam and scam targeting tactics will not be discussed for obvious reasons.

FCN is a privately operated website, governed by the TOU you agree to when signing up and each time you log in to chat. As such, FCN will maintain integrity and control access however FCN, as a private entity, sees fit. Operations of protecting the broader userbase may, time to time, interfere with access for a small number of users. Live chat in this capacity is a unique animal and requires unique solutions.

Website is free to use and access control is discussed in the TOU in broad terms.

Contrary to a typical argument, these efforts are actually helping the Website grow.
 
Thank you for your reply but I didnt see a reply stating what potential solution I could take so feel free to repost for future reference. And as to the inbox comment I would assume that would be a suitable means of communication between admin and users. And as for being a registered user I can only assume I would have a unique identifier which would differentiate from known spam/scam operators
 
Inbox would be an absolutely unsuitable means of communicating such things. Bans can run into hundreds daily for anywhere from silly violations to automated spam removal. All appeals go through the forum.

There aren't enough moderators and this thread is an example why we can't have public ban appeals or direct, inbox ban appeals. Nobody has time to go back and forth while it's often impossible to explain why things are the way they are. All moderators are volunteers.

Again thanks but just stating there are a lot of people in the same boat all asking the same question, with daily banning muting and appealing not only through the ban appeal process but the contact us section, simple recognition of a glitch in the system may alleviate some users concerns. I have been a registered user for a number of years through 2 profiles and havent needed to notice that this is occurring, but as circumstances have shown I am not alone and everyone affected is asking the same question. I wouldnt expect mods to answer as I am quite aware of the workloads having had a few in my friends listHowever auto banning could also include auto messaging when an issue such as this has been flagged. Anyway...it appears not much can be done about it so the status quo will continue until Ive had enough and move on
 
Having been banned for spam after posting a single image, i have to say.
FCN either NEEDS to get more mods and go through appeals and such at a faster rate.
or if thats too much then fix the bot that keeps banning people for reasons like this.

you need to either increase your work rate or decrease the bots bans. people who spam are still on the site and people who don't spam are getting banned for spam then told by the forum
"you cant discuss this there is nothing you can do, just wait" but then get ghosted when they ask "for how long?"
this needs to be fixed or addressed soon.
 
Im of the opinion they just dont give a fuck if your not on their favourites list as the servers can barely cope with the real spammers
this wouldn't even be a real problem for me if they just told me how long a ban was tbh but they refuse at all cost to tell anyone anything ever.
ive seen people send 5 gifs in a second and been fine a minute later so i know the bot is not working as it should or at least not optimally, yeah i believe if you are not one of the top 10 you wont get much help beyond "this doesnt belong here now file an appeal" like man i did that over a week ago and i will be banned again as soon as i post anything when i get back at this rate.
i hope your situation gets better and you can actually do stuff.
 
I have appealed daily this week with screenshot evidence and watch banned guests return within 30 minutes after changing 1 letter in their name continuing as if nothing happened. Maybe thats the best solution
 
if its not an IP ban then yeah they can do that and its sorted but if its IP then it wont matter but yeah its stupid how when you try to go the way the site tells you too by appealing it takes forever and then you get banned again after anyway any people act like you did something wrong again. but if you just change a letter then boom back on. i can only hope this situation gets resolved or at least we get unbanned and not immediately banned again after.
 
I understand that you're dissatisfied with FREE Chat Now dot Com. Would you like a refund?

u know what you win i give up, i will not post about any problems with the chat anymore. happy?
i have problems with you more than the chat now, you either post the most robotic answer or a snarky comment and act as if you are on a Higher plane than others.

i will see if ******** works
if it doesn't i will not post here i will stay quiet and not annoy you further but i do want you to at least know this

Stop acting like a child, you are not clever i know you try to help and its hard with less people but please at least TRY to not act like a snarky asshole
I will no longer discuss anything about bans or the bot or anything on this site

i am genuinely Trying to be civil i dont want to be permabanned from the whole site im just annoyed at being banned for no reason at it being over a week since my appeal
im sorry if you are offended or are annoyed, i will shut up and wait
