You probably won't be able to access the account for 72 hours

he was defending coloured people

I sincerely hope your friend didn't use the term 'coloured people'. It is an archaic and insulting term and highly prejudicial.

Besides, we are all coloured.

And as for being suspended, your friend should just keep out of things. Getting into arguments or even trying to join in on a conversation with others often leads to trouble like this.

Since he was suspended on Wednesday maybe his time is up now and thats why you can get on his account. When my friend was suspended no one could play on his account for 72 hours. When I logged into his name there was a notice up that he was temporarily suspended.

You know I think terms alot of times depend on where you are from.    But chatting on Pogo is bad all the time.

it was the other person who was being nasty talking about coloured people and jews and my friend said well jesus was a jew and he reported him i went in on wednesday as well and cld get into his account and i got in the next day as well i scared to play his badges in case i cause trouble for him

I agree about staying out of CHAT - perhaps your friend will consider this short suspension is a learning experience. About the words <b>Colored People </b>- The NAACP aka The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People  would probably say that this term can be used or they would have changed the acronymn. It is the venom in the way those words can be said that instigates.

We are <b> ALL</b> colored!

IP address was blocked?

you didnt hear this from me, but you can beat the basic IP ban....

dsl users - turn off your modem, clear temp files, restart computer and turn modem back on.... i would guess cable users would have the same results.

but i thought pogo block the screen name not the IP..

Depends on your service. When I had PacBell DSL, that little trick worked. Now that I've moved, and have Verizon DSL, it doesn't work.  :(
