‘Sketchy’?? For God’s sake - their banned word algorithm is out of all proportion. They forced me to change my username when it was ErosWired there (as it is on every other adult site I go to) because it contained the word ‘wired’. I chose that in its common English context of ‘electrically connected’, ‘connected to the internet’. Well, to be fair to them, and to my considerable annoyance, a visit to Urban Dictionary reveals that the drug culture has apparently co-opted the word to such an extent that now nearly every vernacular street definition references drugs. I really can’t blame them, and it makes me wonder if people seeing my username assume I’m a drug user when I’m absolutely not.

But for sketchy you can only find three incidental associations to drugs in the first seven pages of Urban Dictionary definitions, where a couple of them say “often associated with…”.

The word clearly, to most people, just means ‘suspicious’ or ‘shady’.

 I’m surprised you got a refund. Their customer relations are absolutely atrocious.

Especially considering the text I'd just seen in another guy's profile "I have GHB for sale".  I attempted to start a new profile several months ago and was successful for a few hours until they closed the account again but before that happened, I saw a profile that had another very blatant reference to selling drugs.  I don't really get how they allow it or that guy but nobody else.

I was also banned from BBRT, for using the word sketchy.  I didn't even receive an email, just suddenly logged out of the site about two minutes after I updated my profile.   I had just read someone else's profile that literally stated "I have your GHB for sale" and thought the site had changed its rules about references to drugs.   I had just prepaid three months subscription  and had purchased several buddypaks to send send to friends.   I waited an entire day for them to refund the money and send me an email explaining why.  Every hour that passed, I got more and more pissed off, and when I finally emailed them the next day, it ended up being a 3 page email where I stated many things that are true but should have been stated in a polite manner or not at all.  

I got a tersely worded email in return just a few minutes later in which they told me that I am a drug trafficer and they would report me to the police.  Then stated that my email address had been banned from their smtp so they  would not receive any further emails from me.   So, I sent them an email from a different email address demand a refund (again) and letting them know how stupid and cowardly they were.  I did receive the refund (to a credit card that was different from the one I charged it to).  

I have tried to register a new account using a different email address.  The same thing always happens.  The account gets opened, then a few days later is closed.  I don't know what information they use but it must be more than the email address.  I have tried using a VPN but the same thing happened.
