Refusal to Investigate information they asked for.

Jul 08, 2010 18:26

I'm doing this on behalf of a friend of mine. She has written most of this up for me and I've edited it. I'm using a sock account for my own safety but it's likely I'll get suspended if they're really just trying to cover this up.

I'm sorry if this is tl;dr )

I'm not even sure what "compromising accounts" involves. Or why people would go around giving their accounts to other people. Although I guess I've had a couple that have been shared accounts.

I once got suspended because they'd decided I was the same person as a friend with a similar username, even though our IP addresses would have shown that we were on different continents.

As for the rest of it... IDK. If there's been a lot of swapping around of accounts, maybe they've got a lot of investigating to do. OTOH, LJ Abuse just plain ignoring people or refusing to answer them probably wouldn't shock a lot of us.

That really sucks.

I seem to remember I could still log in and export my entries, even though the account was banned and I couldn't use it to post or comment. That was a few years ago now, and I don't remember where the export page is. Plus the system may have changed.

I hope it gets sorted out for you. The fact that the requests haven't been closed at least suggests that they are looking into it, albeit slowly and with a lack of communication.

I am one of the administrators of the Communities category and I'm just commenting here to confirm that what intrepia said about our policies on converting communities is accurate. In support, we never investigate further on normal requests that don't potentially pose a risk to someone's account security.

But I asked for a community to be made a personal journal before and it was you that filled it for me, it wasn't moved to abuse so if it was as intrepia said that abuse do a check then why didn't they find out this "incriminating evidence" then? Why when I suddenly ask now why was I suddenly this "previously terminated user". I'm not asking you to answer since I know you don't/can't discuss that, just making a statement of why it's so random and confusing.

I will admit that the community wasn't mine, I asked a user (who's name I unfortunately can't remember) if I could have it and she gave it to me. If that was the case then surely I would have been told just simply no and not suspended for being previously terminated, which is untrue.

As I said to right, I've asked to have a community turned into a journal in March and if it's as you say that Abuse needs to check the user owns the community and the persons history, then it makes no sense why, when I ask to have another community changed, they throw out this random statement of me being previously terminated. If they simply wanted to refuse to do this then that would have been fine and I wouldn't have complained ( ... )

Was this ever resolved?

My anon comment got screened so whatever.

This is late, and no one gives a crap about LJ anymore. But this was semi-resolved. I say semi because they kept my good names suspended (at this time, I saw a support request from someone asking about one of my names, so they clearly kep the better ones suspended). This was around the time they decided to purge suspended accounts, and I honestly think they just wanted my names to make money from rename tokens. All of them were accounts I'd signed up for. Wasn't the only one this happened to either.
