WOW. What a great welcome. I post a question/problem to the biggest webmaster board in the world and all I get is sneers and insults?

Kensav,

You have to understand that this forum is made up of webmasters who take AdSense very seriously. It is creating wealth for webmasters who might not otherwise have achieved it, and most hold themselves and others to a very high standard.

Additionally, many take it personally when one violates the terms of AdSense as it reflects poorly on publishers as a whole.

Finally, many on here are also AdWords users. When you click on an ad to view a destination page, you are defrauding the AdWords advertisers who is paying for that click.

Invalid clicks is the biggest danger facing AdSense and the future of the PPC industry. No one here wants to lose what they have worked so hard for.

As far as getting reinstated, in this forum at least, there is only one verified instance where a banned publisher got reinstated. (If memory serves correct)

I suggest that you contact AdSense, make your plea, and hope. If you do get reinstated, don't put any ads up until you have read both the TOS and the last 6 months of post on this forum in entirety.

Good luck to you.
