I'm guessing you haven't been banned - for some reason my account has been deactivated too, i don't know the reason yet but will find out.

Alot of the members can be found in the S1 section on the rsoc ask over there you'll get a quicker answer

You have been banned at a guess becuase of your name, someone on that site was banned using the user name seriousone so guessing the admin felt you may be him attempting to reaccess the site via a different computer/email address but retaining your name.

email the admin.

did you type it is Serious One or seriousone though? would have to be exact to be unavailable i guess, but being so close may have flagged it up to them.

think it was more that is it the same name bar a space of a banned user that has caused the issue. Am sure he will get it sorted, good little site that is.
