| Feb 28, 2014 at 14:08 | comment | added | landed | I am also very disappointed to have reached this - too many times people down vote that is very borderline before we really understand how its working. Moderation carries a responsibility clearly that some have abused. | |
| Feb 22, 2012 at 5:34 | comment | added | Dr. Andrew Burnett-Thompson | @TimPost got it. If you check my activity on SO you'll see that over the past 2 months I've been busy creating quality answers & increasing my rep from a lowly 1 point to nearly 4k. So hopefully I've paid my penance! :-) Regards, | |
| Feb 21, 2012 at 20:42 | comment | added | user50049 | @PopularDemand The answer ban implies that someone circumvented every effort we mad to ensure that never happened to them, so I think perhaps it deserves another FAQ. Open SO in incognito and answer something, you'll see what I mean. The question prompts point allude to stuff that people need to spend some time reading, but seriously, a short paragraph in a modal? Ouch. | |
| Feb 21, 2012 at 20:39 | comment | added | Pops | @TimPost the answer ban link is the same as the question ban link. I wonder if we should just modify the existing question ban FAQ entry to address both situations. I'm actually not sure what differences exist between the two. | |
| Feb 21, 2012 at 20:32 | comment | added | user50049 | @PopularDemand Probably worth creating. If you feel like writing it I'll FAQ it and ask for the link to point appropriately. | |
| Feb 21, 2012 at 20:30 | comment | added | user50049 | @AndrewBurnett-Thompson If one answer fits several questions, then let us know what the best question is by flagging the others as duplicates. If you post the same answer on three questions, and they are ultimately merged, that's a problem. Additionally, links to a library in several questions smell like SPAM to the people that keep one of the most frequented sites (mostly) SPAM free. I think the link to the FAQ should blink. | |

| Feb 21, 2012 at 20:15 | comment | added | user50049 | Forum? I think you've gotten to the root of the problem. Your account is blocked from answering questions due to a history of very low quality answers. In fact, despite warnings that you can't dismiss saying Make sure you post an answer to this question, all of your answer say 'Me too, did you find a solution?'. They were deleted, and that triggered a ban. I'm sorry, we can't help you anymore. | |

| Dec 23, 2011 at 13:45 | comment | added | Dr. Andrew Burnett-Thompson | Hello, I've also just got banned for a similar reason. I wouldn't mind knowing why, or how to get this ban reversed. I am a legitamate contributor to StackOverflow and my answers are always helpful, constructive and to the point. However, I linked to two external libraries (one which I have developed, another I have not) in multiple posts as legitamate answers to questions and now my account is suspended. Big shame really! I'm trying to get started on SO and to do so, an easy way is to post on the many similar questions answers that you know well. | |
| May 12, 2011 at 14:58 | comment | added | Pops | Perhaps it's time to open up a new Meta FAQ entry, "What can I do when getting 'Sorry, we are no longer accepting answers from this account'?"? | |

| May 11, 2011 at 21:36 | comment | added | Pollyanna | If you provide a link to the user account you use to post your answers, we might be able to help you understand what is wrong. If you post a lot of answers that are getting downvoted, you will be blocked from adding new answers. | |
| May 11, 2011 at 21:24 | comment | added | Daniel DiPaolo | @Mark though to be fair, that link specifies that it applies to questions and not answers but I bet it's the same mechanism in effect. | |
| May 11, 2011 at 21:15 | comment | added | user149432 | Did you read the link in the message which explains the error? | |
