I have been BANNED

Laufen zum Ziel · 07-03-09, 11:22 AM

Photobucket has pulled the plug on me. I have lost my signature, death cards and two years of SHIII photographs. Their reason was "for violation of terms of service". Terms of service are associated with porno, offensive or objectionable photograps. It appears that someone at Photobucket finds History, SHIII, WWII, U-Boats, U-Boat crews and other historical photographs offensive.

WITHOUT A PHOTO ACCOUNT I CAN NOT POST IMAGES TO SUBSIM OR CONTINUE MY D.I.D THREAD. DOES ANYONE KNOW OF ANY OTHER SERVICE I CAN USE????

Fader_Berg · 07-03-09, 11:55 AM

Aw, come on... store the porn on your own harddrive man.

Ford Prefect · 07-03-09, 11:58 AM

I joined photobucket back when it was still a small affair some years back after problems with strike9, then it was ace, now it's bloated crap. Same old story as with many websites, services and programs from winamp to audioscrobbler.

Is there no way to appeal your ban?

there's also flickr you can upload to.

I use Imagecave.com

Thanks to Jimbuna (link to imageshack.com) I have a new STOLEN Sig. It will take hours to upload images to them from my HD.

As far as Photobucket: I had no porn just historical & SHIII game stuff. My mesage to Photobucket . Grow up. History is what it is and a game is a game.

Just the opposite for me. I've had nothing but trouble with Imageshack, and never a single problem with photobucket.

And your namecalling is just plain rude, you meany.

@LzZ: Have you contacted them to complain?

maybe someone took offense to the amount of German stuff you had maybe they thought you were a Hitler youth or a nazi or something.

you should have your stuff backed up on your own side instead of depending on external sources with which you have no control over.

But who?...took offense. I mean you need your login to access your albums, no? Are they for public view? Or was some admin randomly trawling the albums. Granted it is a free site etc BUT this banned for no reason shiite, sux azz. In fact, if I ever got banned like he did, I would send them emails forever telling them to ESAD!

Bleh ..now you got my agent orange acting up...

It's always someone's political agenda. On YouTube much like PhotoBucket, people's media material often gets banned because it does not agree with the political agenda of the admins of the website. Don't take it from me, I hate the swastika as much as anyone else, but I don't see why they'd do this. Millions of people were murdered under the hammer and sickle and I don't see anyone banning it. Or the fact that a neo-Nazi party in Russia called the National Bolsheviks has adopted it on their armbands like the swastika. Like the brownshirts of old, they beat up people who don't agree with an agenda. I swear the PC people do it in a more polite form, but do it anyway. They are communists anyway who want to see our freedom lost to give away to appease other "races" Just ask them. I know how you feel. I hate it when stuff like this happens.

It's the wonderful politically correct people who get offended on behalf of someone else! They should all get back to worshipping Mary Whitehouse and leave the rest of us to get on with life.
