My mom appears to have an active account and was probably not the member in question here, although that remains unclear. She may have had two accounts. At any rate, she got a message that she had been banned, but the account she says she tried to sign on with is active.

I honestly don't know what happened.

I am truly sorry for causing a ruckus about this and promise that I will keep a close eye on her, lol.
