Account Suspension for Copyright Infringement

[Lemming]

If you looked at this site this morning you may have encountered a big message saying 'Account Suspended'. The whole site was blocked because of a complaint about copyright infringement.

Thanks to HullDJ we found that the cause was an article about a big wheel in Rotterdam that member notsofasteddie re-published here on the forum back in 2017. The owner of the original article had complained to the hosting company and had us closed down.

HullDJ has managed to persuade the hosting company to un-suspend the site and I've now deleted the offending post and emailed the complainant.

This is obviously something we need to be careful of. It's a bit sad that a dull off-topic post in the forum can bring down the whole site.

Huge thanks to HullDJ for sorting this extremely quickly and for everything he does for us.
