My account was recently banned from here for reasons I'm not cognizant of. If I received a warning via PM (I have an unread PM I cannot access), then I haven't the slightest! I made this account in order to PM an administrator or someone capable of assisting me.
I have attempted contacting Fred Miranda via [email protected] and PM'ing the Fred Miranda account; however, I have yet to receive any kind of response, so I'm curious if I'm even attempting to contact the right person! For reference, I attempted contact on 11/28, 12/02, and 12/23.
Does anyone know if I am contacting the right person? If not, who should I contact? I would love to continue using the site, but as I was just starting to build positive reputation, I would hate to have to start over, and given that I don't know why I was banned initially, I am further hesitant in case I unwittingly make the same mistake. Anyway, thanks for your help, anyone who replies!
P.S.
If anyone might have an idea as to why I was banned, I would love to hear it. My account history is that I registered back in mid February 2012. I purchased three items (netting two reviews, both positive) within about three months. The account sat fairly dormant, and then I purchased two items in late November. One item was shipped and received successfully, but I was banned prior to its arrival in which to leave/receive feedback. The second item was refunded by the seller when he noticed that the lens was suffering an AF problem and did not wish to sell a faulty product (again, this happened shortly after I was banned).
Around the same time, I purchased a Buy/Sell membership and posted a thread with some items I was looking at selling (camera body + two lenses)... when I checked back, I was banned! I'm not sure if someone thought I was a scammer or something similar. I know that I made a mistake in reference to the battery grip (calling it a BG-E11 instead of BG-E7), but I can't imagine that would flag an account for termination. The sale thread I posted seems to have been deleted, so my best guess is that it had something to do with that.
Fred, please help and unlock my account too. The username is proud-dad. I was relatively new to the community and may have accidentally stepped on someone's toes. I have nonetheless completed a few sales and received a couple of nice reviews. Please help. THANK YOU SO MUCH
The same issue here: my account from 2011 oddly doesn't have email address associated with it. Sent your PM with details, Fred.

Thank you!
I got locked out of my account (username: mbbinvt) back in June when I changed the email address associated with it. I've tried PM'ing Fred from a different account several times since then, but I have not gotten any replies.
Does anyone have any other suggestions for getting in touch with Fred?
