Makes you sick doesn't it?
i was scared to log on here incase i found the same thing had happened to me, i just don't get what the Admin are playing at on here now!
hopefully she will hear something soon! and does fill in a feedback form and EVENTUALLY hear something back.
Maybe contacting a mod from another account? I know that's what Blaisixi did, think you'll have to do a bit of research into the right mod to ask though, as a few of them on here are pretty young and immature and apt to be unhelpful neutral

Actually, she has heard from a Mod already. It's possible she will get it back. I can't remember the exact wording she was told but it's happened to at least 6 members recently. *crosses fingers*

That is absolutely ridonculous! scream WTH is going on here lately? I think I'mgoing to stop donating for a little while, just so I don't potentially lose anymore money just in case...
Can someone tell Jess I wish her luck getting everything worked out?

I will tell her Jessi. According to what she read yesterday, there is somewhere in the 4000 range of members banned for having their accounts compromised. Apparently, something happened with Subeta and if you were using the same id and p/w there, you were effected. I'm not exactly sure how to explain it.

So, this might not be a 'banning' so much as a 'closing accounts for security reasons?'
I wish her and other compromised people all the luck in the world.

Hi everyone, thanks for the comments and the support, I really appreciate it!! In the link that Jaz posted, there is a link to a users journal. It lists the 3000+ names that were banned over the weekend, and my name is about halfways down the list.
From what I have read, I wasnt banned because I did anything wrong, Gaia banned me to protect my account. And Im glad they did. Because I would have been heartbroken if I lost my hard earned pixels because of some jackass moron who wanted to feel important.
Funny thing is, I dont even go to Subeta very often, and after this? I will never, EVER go there again. Yeah it was my dumbass fault because I use the same username everywhere, but its a comfortable name and Im used to it. And trust me, ALL my passwords for every site I use that name on, have been changed and no one knows what they are, not even my sister.
I have filled out all the proper forms and all I can do now is wait. Im sure that with 3000+ names to investigate that it will be awhile before they get to me, but Im hopeful that I will be able to get my account back eventually. Thanks again for the support guys, I cant even begin to tell you how much it means to me *hugs*
~*Jess*~

I JUST heard back about my inquiry!! Here is what they replies:

Wow, Jess, that's amazing! I do hope you are able to get that account back. It's too bad Lizzy and Blais haven't had any luck.
