How did I become a Pledge Member?

I didn't do it myself as I no longer have a paypal account. I had a problem with paypal once and vowed to never go back so someone tell me how this happened????

Its good to question these things. It is like when my bank sent me a gold card for regular banking. Nobody could say why they gave it to me??? All I know is that I can take the sit down service that is much faster then the long lines for blue card holders?

Well if Canadian banks are anything like the UK's it won't be because they like you......It'll be so they can charge you for the privilege of having a "Shiny" card....No such thing as a free lunch!!!

You may never discover the person's identity. My guess is if the person wanted you to know who did this, that individual probably would have revealed his or her identity at that time. You may just have to live with this mystery.

I reckon what happened was that a moderator meant to hit the "banned" button for your account but accidentally pressed the "make pledge member" by mistake. It's the only rational explanation.

Since I do have nine infraction points this theory makes more sense than anything.

Infraction: 1 point for making me read this thread several times without an outcome
