"Disabled For Spamming"
Hello,
My site got suddenly a picture of a veal instead of the countries flags, as usual. When I click the picture it goes to flagcounter.com site and the message "Disabled for spamming" appears there. I have no clue why is that... I have not used the site for any spamming - how is that possible? I would be most thankful if you could provide me details of what is going on...
With best wishes,
Miguel

Did you send your counter out in any emails?

Re: "Disabled For Spamming"
yes, I did... I was not aware that it was not proper to do that, sorry. I am now aware that was the origin of the problem. Is it possible to revert the situation and take this as a lesson?

Re: "Disabled For Spamming"

Re: "Disabled For Spamming"
I am now without the counter for almost a week... wrote several times by email but Flagcounter seem to apply a very hard hearing on this situation, despite telling them that it was a genuine mistake... it seems that no second chances are given - you do something wrong (even if you are not aware of it) and all those years of statistics are wiped out.. future users beware...

Re: "Disabled For Spamming"
Thanks Lorelei. I didn't know about it... now I know... butFlagCounter refusal to give any second chance for my mistake is a bit too harsh... I explained it to them in several emails and on this forum but they seem just not to care...
