Google Groups grrr…
Just been to visit the “IT Volunteers in Ethiopia” group that I set up the other week, only to find that I get the message “The owner of this group has banned you from this group. “:
So apparently I’ve banned myself from the group :-/ (not quite sure how I would’ve managed that- or why!)
Then if I try to return to the groups homepage, I get “Forbidden Your client does not have permission to get URL / from this server”:
*but* if I then log out of my Google account, I’m able to see the group and I have permission to get to the Groups homepage…
Seems I’m not the only one with this problem…
[...] you may have seen my posting the other day about being banned from Google Groups. This is still unresolved – despite sending a number of emails to Google support – and has made me [...]
[...] Google has banned my google groups account. No notice, no explanation and no way for me to contact them. Looks like I am not the only one, (2). I am getting the same screens as this guy. [...]
Funnily enough – I’m now banned from my own group as well. My group is a closed group with around 10 members. How can this happen?
I am also banned from my group. I logged in with a second email address which worked for a while but no that one is banned also.
No idea what gives.
And google does not reply
