Just found this post randomly. Was banned in March or April I believe. I made a second account (Ladi343) to lurk but I refused to post with Rampage being around. Glad he's out.
@topjimmy and
@hhnyc77 massive thanks to you. I didn't see my account in the lists but saw TJs post about reinstating every account with over 50 posts - so I likely landed in that batch. You guys seem to be really dedicated to improving the site which I truly enjoy a lot (I'm a member of a few other review boards but have not found them to be even half as useful as this one even with said mod in charge).
@topjimmy I'll DM you directly with a more pointed question but I'd like to post a vague version anecdote of my ban. I generally review favorably and you will often see me looking out for certain providers (I'm a FBSM enthusiast and you'll probably see me answering people that ask "why would you pay for just that"). In this particular case, I wrote up a poor review of a provider who I used to hold in high regard - proof of which is actually in my post history right here. I had a session with the lady and it was very poor in various ways. I woke up the next day to a few responses with the last post being one from the provider herself, but I didn't get a chance to read it as the thread had been deleted (I could see it but it was greyed out). I was actually looking forward to dialoguing with her as she has a history of engaging in conversation when something happens. The rules actually say if your post is deleted you will be given a reason via inbox or on the deleted post. But I could not find the reason in any place. I did see Rampage deleted the post so I sent a very respectful message to him asking for a reason. The next day I log on and find my account banned.
As mentioned, I made a second account to lurk and the other day randomly decided to try this account again and was allowed back in. Now I see what happened.
Much appreciated guys. I've already posted a recent review and have my private access back as well.
