Furaffinity Ban - Again by VasVadum

So, about half a year ago, I did something I shouldn't have, and got banned. But I apologized, got my ban lifted, and everything went back to normal. I even talked with Dragoneer on telegram for a while after that. At least till about a month or two ago when I offended him and he blocked me but that doesn't seem like its related in any way to whats happening now. I don't believe he's the type of person to ban someone, just because he doesn't like something they said, after all.

However, in recent days, I have done nothing wrong, I can't even fathom what I might have done wrong since my ban was lifted, to deserve another permanent ban.

About a week ago, someone started posting zoophilia to furaffinity, so I reported the profile and it was banned within a few hours. I also filed a second ticket, reporting someone making callout journals about that same person, because it was also a violation of the rules of the site. That journal was promptly removed.

Someone sent me a note on FA, saying that my shouts were disabled. I went through all my settings trying to figure out if I could re-enable my shouts. But I couldn't. I filed a support ticket asking them to re-enable my shouts, because I suspect they accidentally forgot to do so after my ban was lifted. I also posted a journal, that I was having problems with shouts and I was trying to get them back.

A few days later, I'm permanently banned with the bullshit message below;

"After reviewing your account, we do not believe that you are a good match for our community. Because of this, we have chosen to permanently close your account and end our service to you."

What kind of bullshit is that? What the fucking hell did I do wrong? This makes me believe that corruption is back in FA now that its personally owned again. However, I don't know for sure. Someone could have made up some lies, falsified something, and sent it to the staff, who knows. The fact is, I'm banned, again, for no reason this time. I know I did no wrong, this time, I am sure of it. I am absolutely, 100% and completely sure that I did not break a single rule of the website. Not in the AUP, not in the COC, not in the TOS.

I will be adding more information here as it becomes available. I am quite distressed about this, because I was about to get a commission for the first time, I was ready to pay the artist and everything. I was also in a raffle which I had won, which I may now have to forgo too. I just don't know right now, I am quite upset about the treatment I have received. Its very unprofessional.

    Corruption has never left FA. I was banned 10 years ago or so for unproven art theft. When I attempted to appeal the decision, and explained myself, I was more or less told to screw off. Dragoneer himself lifted my ban originally, but low and behold, some people managed to troll me into getting removed. Good joke, not.. Either way, good luck appealing anything from them. Their team leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I've met some who are good, but many of them are just rude, or mean. If Dragoneer weren't employing his friends as admins, things might actually get done right for a change.

    At least you still have Weasyl.

      In this case, the only thing I can think of is that I said something Dragoneer didn't like on telegram, and he blocked me. A month later, I'm banned.

        Well, that sucks. I wish I knew what to tell you. However, he's kind of.. A dick, for lack of a better phrase.

          The Appeals email came back, and said "We cannot tell you why but it wasn't a mistake".
          Short for "We don't have a legitimate reason, its personal."

          They've told me my reasons each time in the past, now they won't.

            Yep, sounds like Dragoneer took a personal interest to kick you off of his site.
