Why was I banned?

(1/12) > >>

Soconfused2016:
I have been a longtime contributor to this forum under a different username.

Imagine my surprise to visit the site today to see that I was banned for “race baiting, trolling”.

I don’t have the first idea what I could possibly have written that offended anyone, and don’t know how to contact an administrator to see if it was a mistake.

Help? Can I PM someone to understand what happened?

I clear my history and cookies on my phone and it goes away. It’s annoying though.

Good to know this is a risk factor!

Yep, this happened to me when I lived near a Former Forum Troublemaker. Any time he showed back up and got banned, for months after my phone would freak out and tell me I was banned. Heart attack central! Moving fixed it though.
