^That's not this one?

I have. I recently found a website related to My Little Pony:Friendship Is Magic fan-art. And I've been banned for 3 months, currently. Because of my bumping, overly dramatic, spamming way, and disrespect to the users in a IRC (Mibbit) room. Also by making unnecessary topic forums in the forum area. The website is : www.twentypercentcooler.net . If anyone is familiar with this website, please help me, so I won't make the same error again.

I have once, but I would prefer not to go into details. Not a pleasant experience.

Well, what I just had, was the worse.

Once. I joined a movie forum to ask a question about the contents of a DVD that I couldn't find on the main website. It was a perfectly innocent question, but I was banned instantly. A lot of people posted in the topic, not to answer my question, but to express disbelief that I had been banned so quickly and without reason.

I came close another time. I wasn't banned, but I was suspended. Another forum user misread something I posted, and I told him to try reading what I typed before replying to it. The person happened to be a mod.

Yes I get banned in lots of places. Was once banned from WP a long time ago for saying something I apparently shouldn't have. You would think they would make allowances for social mistakes in a place like this but apparently not.

Sigh... I suspect that some Formspring users have blocked me long ago, but I don't have any evidence.

Yes I have and I have deserved it too several times. Letting someone use my account to troll the forum (not this one) and spamming another forum because I didn't like the owner and was trying to get people to leave that one and go back to the other one. And the third one was because I requested to be banned for a month due to a drama there and I wanted to get away from it.

I was banned from Yahoo!Answers after making a rather amusing joke involving cannibalism.

Someone apparently thought I was seriously suggesting cannibalism, so they reported me. I was "permanently suspended" IE smacked with the banhammer.

Almost banned from a forum about as in spanish.
There was only one moderator and he banned everyone that had different views.
I had the great idea to post some of the "wise" things he had said on a private section in the public one and he sent me a pm about banning me, I replied that there was no mention to that on the rules and several other members agreed on this so he had to undo the banning.

I got banned from Christianity.com

Almost everyone there was supporting a war that started, I wrote a post about it being illogical for Christians to support the war, and posted images of civilians killed in said pet war. I had to be silenced :roll:

I was banned once a loooong time ago, from a chatroom on Pojo's gaming site. It was the first time I was on there, and I asked if anyone knew where I could find a cool online Pokémon game. So after I had been given a link, I JOKINGLY said that 'if that site stinks, I'm coming back to get you'. So the online Pokémon game turned out to lag a little bit, and I returned to the chatroom to tell them that 'it stunk', still all in good jest.

I was kicked immediately. This experience taught me the importance of using emoticons when being ironic/sarcastic/not serious.
