didn't you say earlier that you swore at some spammer @Former-Member - does that breach their guidelines?

Hi @Former-Member
I understand that SANE forum is different to RO, and I am sorry that you do not like it here.
I have read back. You say it is not your fault and you did nothing. Perhaps to you, you did nothing wrong but we really cannot comment on that becasue we were not on that site. @Zoe7 makes some excellent points. This has happened before and as members or the SANE moderators, we cannot go onto RO to find out why you were banned.
If it was me, I would try to calm down and then wait out the two week ban. After that it might be worth asking them to email you explaining why you were banned and what you can differently in the future to make sure it doesn't happen again. It is not worth emailing them now because you are upset and it won't change the ban. I would hate you to say something for them to ban you for longer.
This is just my suggestion and what I would do in your situation. I hope I haven't upset you because that was not my intention at all.
Take care

@Former-Member I don't see it as you being picked on buddy - I think this is more a case of YOU continuing to break their guidelines (however small) and quite frankly - I think they have had enough. Maybe this is their way of showing you that the previous bans have been for a reason and when you continually 'fight' them it becomes frustrating for everyone. I know you are so very connected to that site and the people there - and that it is your 'safe' place Jay - maybe this is a great opportunity for you to strengthen some of the relationships you have formed here - I know it isn;t the same for you - and that has a lot to do with age and connectedness - but there are people here who care about you - and want the best for you.

@Former-Memberif you follow the guidelines, you will not get kicked out of here. Maybe use this time to memorise the RO guidelines so this does not happen again.
Do not give them a reason to ban you again
