I have this old account, for many years.
Now few months ago, I started new business, so I registered another new account on this forum and it was banned as clone. Do you have a rule which disallow cloned accounts? I cannot find these rules on your site....

It's not explicitly listed, it's frowned upon and we take action when we deem it necessary; one of the reasons where it's quick to happen is when the sole purpose of the account appears to be advertising.

Please do not PM for support - anything else is usually OK.

At least you can warn before by private message....
Also your decision of sole purpose is not always correct....


For example like account of hosting companies may be used for support also.

That's possible; but considering you have this account and we don't want the clone account: the message the ban displays should be ample notification and it prevents further use of the account.

You're here now, so I'm not exactly sure what the problem is? :)

If you were banning me immediately it was ok. But you started to ask please provide many answers on questions so I did all and after all you deleted all them.....
The problem is that I almost started to think you dont like any additional adverts of free smf hosts on this forum.
May be you have some interests to prevent this....

1.) It would be ok at any time.
2.) I didn't ask you anything, I told you to comply with the rules; the questions were in the rules topic. You could have read it and complied to begin with.
3.) I didn't look in to clones until after I posted the default "read the rules" post, though I did wait with taking action pondering whether or not the clone was OK and whether or not you should be allowed to keep it. (After some thought and checking the account you're posting with now: the outcome is evidently "no".)
4.) I honestly don't really care what you almost started to think or want to insinuate, I suggest you watch your tone. There are multiple free hosting providers here, all of whom went through the strict procedures and rules to get their topic approved. (And yep, they're more strict with free hosting due to the rather volatile nature and because they're often surrounded by problems.)

Try it and see. There are very strict rules and thorough checks for (free) hosting providers, I'm not going to make any promises before thoroughly reviewing your post.
