I try to submit info on the Encyclopedia, but it says "I lost the privilage to do this". However, what did I do, if anything? How can I regain the privilage?

It seems an Encyclopedia admin was a little overzealous and banned you because you submitted the following trivia for Dragon Ball (manga):
Quote:
Info: What character has the power to tear apart the ground beneath him or her by lifting his finger?
URL: This is power is used by Nappa when he first arrives on Earth.

If you look a little bit at other trivia entries, it should be pretty obvious that we're not looking for that kind of "flashcard" question-and-answer trivia. Not to mention that it makes no sense to put the answer in the "url" field. In the future please be careful with what you submit, but I'll give you a second chance since this seems like a honest mistake.

Thanks. It was my first try, so I guess I made a stupid error. Embarassed
