so does a MOD want to elaborate- seems to me that if rl was banned for multiple accounts that just because he is a school offical the rules don't apply to him and that's not fair. Ad if he is not permanently banned then this rule needs to be taken out of the TOS (of course then chaos will reign...)

Some day I will be the next Goljan/Daugherty/fysher for IMG's all over the world.

The CMU School Official account was originally banned because it was suspected for using multiple accounts. Since our investigation was inconclusive, the Mods decided to reinstate the account without penalty.

Hope this helps.

p.s. Neilc's ban was recently changed from temporary to permanent once someone pointed out the error to us.

Thanks for clarifying both those points.

I've never used multiple accounts, there was a suspicion and was finally clarified. I have been a member of VMD for over 4 years as school official and always tried to comply with the TOS as well as advised our students to do the same.
Thank you Doc for clarifying the situation.

might we remind all those who have chosen to complain about special treatment etc, that countless regular users- including some of you who have complained here- have been given the benefit of the doubt in the past for their own infractions/banning, etc. Frankly you should be thanking doc and the admin for keeping this forum informative and functional for thousands of anonymous users. Try looking at a few other forums if you want to see what a challange this is. Perhaps youre just paying a little more attention in this case because its a school official?
