Ok, given the way things are at the moment with a new wave of bannings at the DIF, I think it may be a nice idea to collate all of our ban reasons in one handy thread.
Please let's keep it simple and not have a discussion in this thread. Let's just post them reasons.
The reason given for my ban was um, confused. At first Sean said it was because I was using the PM function to recruit members to the SZ.
When confronted on that here in chat, he subsequently realised this explanation gave weight to the idea he reads PMs and changed his mind. Settling for summat like me being a bad influence.
That was because, prior to my ban I'd spent many months on a cycle of suspension. I drew the attention of Sean and his crew by questioning them openly and in private about the tolerance of abject bigotry on the site. Eventually they would literally issue points every time I logged in. I think my personal best was being suspended within an hour of the last suspension ending

Though I claim no credit for that feat. That feat was accomplished solely off the back of certain mods literally crawling all over me.
Maybe summat to do with my having exposed Merlincunt/zhiba's support for the racist abuse of a valued member, in the infamous thread that was started as a result of the racist abuse she had endured.
ETA: I forgot to mention that in response to the racism, I started a boycott of 'race' threads. Figuring that if we stopped arguing with the Nans their threads would die a death. The DIF admin were at pains to let me know they wanted me to drop it. I couldn't understand their objection at the time but learnt at SZ1 just how much Sean values his "traffic"
