Question

Why am I being barred from chess rooms even though I didn't do anything wrong?

Answer 1

Maybe cause your cheating?

Answer 2

Maybe it's because Yahoo Games really blows.

I don't even play chess there anymore for about 20 reasons.

Answer 3

That's really hard to answer without some more information. We don't know which chess rooms you're referring to. How do you know you're being barred? Did you receive some kind of official notification?

Usually, people get banned from online sites for violating the rules in some way. For example: repeated cheating, offensive language, harassing other site users, etc.

So, perhaps someone felt you were cheating and reported you. Or, maybe someone felt your behavior was inappropriate and reported you. It is also possible that someone figured out how to use your account and used it in an appropriate way.

If you were banned then you should might have received some kind of warning or notification of what was going to happen. Maybe you just missed that mail or maybe you ignored it.

You seem to feel that you're being unjustly banned. Why not contact the site administrator and see what happened?

Answer 4

HMPH! You should have spammed or advertised there. I guess, you're barred because of that. Try to find another chess site. Or erase your old Yahoo! ID and make a new one and use it to play in Yahoo! Chess if you still want to play here.
