Banned from ROG website for no reason

[woahwoahwilly]

Well, I was over on ROG trying to help a guy. I was going to reply to one of the guys who needed help and when I tried to reply the website told me that I was banned and said the reason wasn't specified.The ban lift date was never.What does this mean?

Sounds to me like someone permanently banned you. You would have to contact the site directly and inquire as to why. Could be something you said (or how you said it) or it could be just someone was being well obnoxious and decided to ban you. Wouldn't be the first time I have seen someone abuse power on forums/sites. Contact them and inquire as to why, let them know the date, location, etc., of your post reply and have it looked into. You may get your access back and the other person lose some of theirs, or you may not get it back, but can't hurt to try at this point.

I'll try that.

I've never been on the ROG community site until tonight and I have the same message. I never posted or replied and this is the first time I've logged in.

Same here, this just happened to me as well -- I just registered my account now and anytime I try to reply or create a new post I see this message:

"You have been banned for the following reason:
No reason was specified."

Interesting, that happened too. I'm going to contact them.
