Why was my previous 'Xzyckon' account deleted?

On October 1st, I created an account on these forums called 'Xzyckon', which I believe was deleted 16 days later. Now that I've re-registered, I would like to know why this happened.

Any feedback regarding this is appreciated, thanks.

Hey Xzyckon. An admin may have deleted the account accidentally thinking it was a spam account. I apologize if this was the case. We have to deal with a ton of spam accounts...

Hmm... Do these spam accounts actually post stuff or do they just clog up the database? If they just sit there then that would easily explain accidental deletes.

As a side note: When I tried to introduce myself using the previous account that was deleted I had to wait for my post to be approved by a mod, doesn't seem to be happening now. I wonder if this has something to do with that...
