Account locked/blocked

My main account, SharkfinUK, was wrongly blocked recently whilst I was in the middle of writing a totally innocuous blog post. Although I've used the contact form a few times to request an unlock, nothing has happened and it seems that this forum does produce results.

That account is my Opera Link account as well so this was doubly frustrating.

Also, if someone is able to ascertain what the cause of the block was (I believe it was some kind of auto-lock bot thing?) so perhaps I can avoid triggering it in future, that would be fantastic too.

Thanks muchly!

Your account was detected as spam an automatically banned on May 16. The My Opera guys would have to look into why that happened, but I have at least unbanned your account.

Sorry for the trouble sad

It has happened again. Straight after writing a regular blog post (although I did use a word which a "language filter" may have complained about, but which was used in a non-offensive way.)

Guess I'll have to be squeaky clean if someone can unlock me again...

I've restored your account, and whitelisted it as well. This shouldn't happen again! Sorry for the trouble.

Oh, thank you so much. The whitelisting really puts my mind at rest for the future. You are a star!
