Why does my registation keep getting deleted

[major1]

I the last few days I have registered twice as (ua45x), this is my third registration. If I have done something wrong I would like to be told what it was.

I have sent an email to Jason but not yet received a reply.

Hi major1,

Though I'm not a moderator or in any other way have anything to say about what goes on behind the screens I think the answer lies in this post by Jason made to answer a post from someone who encountered the same problem as you.

The problem was technical. I have been involved in a monumental struggle to keep spam users from registering on the site. In that process I routinely go though all new user registrations and cull out any and all that are fake or suspect. The Nil account accidently fell into that group and I apologize. Going forward I am going to post a suggestion to new users to choose a rational, reasonable sounding user name lest it be mistaken for a spam account be be removed.

I guess ua45x looked suspicious.

Welcome to the forum and let's hope things go right this time!

Cheers,

Paul

While it's not mandatory, the more information you add to your profile, the better. That shows that you're not a "bot" just randomly signing in. It might help.

Thank you both for your responses. I will re-post and see how things go.

Sorry about the mixup, the posters above were correct, if the username doesn't sound overtly logical (sorry I know that is open to debate) it may be deleted for fear of being a spam account.
