Email still in the spam database

It says my email is still in the spam database.

I found "Found 0 entries for "your-email-address-used-to-signup-to-SFS" using our Search page. If it is a different email address, then PM me that address. Plus, you might like to be a bit more specific about who or what "It" is, since my ESP is below grade this morning.

<redacted-by-Mod>@<redacted-by-Mod>, I thought you redacted it.

Are you being deliberately obstructive, or are you simple-minded?

The email address that you PM'ed me is the same as the one that you just repeated in your latest post. That email address is different to the one in your Profile. Both email addresses give the same response when searched for in the SFS Search Page:

Earlier you wrote:

That means that either:

You are lying, or
You are too simple-minded to be able to effectively use our Search Page

Which of those two is true?

No, I just woke up, and my email address wasn't working upon registration here either! My son talked about deleting my account so I can reregister. He has the pm. DON'T YOU EVER INSULT ME LIKE THAT!

You posted your email address.
I redacted your email address, and pointed out that you should not do that (for your own sake, not mine).
You re-posted your email address once again, even though you had already PM'ed it to me.

There were two options for that action that presented themselves to me:

You were deliberately being obstructive
You did not have capacity to discern what was happening

OK. I'm finished with this now. You are banned from this site.

+1.

A quick 30 second Google search of OP's username shows that he's been similarly banned from at least several other communities recently, which I'd wager could be due to behaving with the same asinine entitlement over there as was done here. Whether unknowingly, or with the intent to troll, would be anyone's guess, but for the sake of not investing more mental energy or stress than necessary, I'd err towards intent to troll, and as is often said: Best to not feed the trolls.

In 4 days the guy made 24 posts, all about the same matter, which itself was due to his own inaction & got fixed by us in 2 days. His rate of posting was increasing recently, and his behaviour was becoming abusive. Ah, spit.

If I may as an un-informed 3rd party, this is actually seemed a page straight out of military psyops too. I wouldn't doubt if he was an actual person in the chinese firewall team checking the systems in place here.

[Notice he reveberated lots of small non-important facts to the case...more than a normal person would.]

Seen some of the weird chat AI meltdowns that've been shared around recently? When the day comes that spammers start actively using modern chat AI as part of their campaigns on a regular basis, the experience of facing it or needing to deal with it, I imagine might, at times, feel a little like taking the starring role in a Stephen King novel. This particular one, for example, comes courtesy of Bing:
