You've been a member since December 2017, you'd think during all that time you might have read RULES of Bitcointalk and known referral links are not allowed.

The rules should be the 1st thing every user reads.

Honestly, I was not aware that posting a reflink was counted as a spam, unless it's repeatedly doing so on other topics. In addition, the OP explicitly requested for one so it wasn't unsolicited.

So assuming that the earlier post was the cause, I'll wait for the ban to expire then.

Thanks for your input.

Same here, I don't get it why some mods are happily removing some of my replies.

Yesterday, some OP made a thread asking for casino site recommendations with referral codes. In other words, users are allowed to post theirs if any.

So I briefly introduced one.

The next day, boom! Deleted by moderator.

For player #2, there's one which might suit his taste.

Thunderpick, since 2016. Comes with video poker and slots, along with match betting and other games. By using my referral code, he enjoys a 5% first-time deposit bonus up to 500 Euros.

And there's Live support too

You probably had more and a mod found it (or someone reported it). Since you already had a few deleted, maybe the mod just banned you?

For that post, after I was informed that publicly posting reflinks was prohibited, I stopped.

It's understandable if I had been doing this on several topics.

But don't you reckon banning over a single removed ref message is somewhat uncalled for? Image if another one happen to come across this (and assumed I wasn't suspended) and then ban my account out of the blue again.

EDIT: Was it because I forgot to remove the reflink in that post?

I found this post you made a few months ago:

3 days is a very short ban. So until this is cleared up, you probably have it back.
In your history, I couldn't find anything to go on. Maybe the posts were made a long time ago.

While I agree that 3 days is short, my main is part of a signature campaign so this would not look good if the CM notices my inactivity during the duration.

I don't recall spamming reflinks back then either, but if there's evidence I did so a long time ago, I'll take responsibility. All I hope is that the responsible individual would actually come forward so I know it's justified.

Because if the same thing happens again, something's not right.

Or maybe it was via PN? PN-REF-Spam is also forbidden!

What's PN-REF? Never heard of that before.

I can't tell you about it, but it's probably about that account, isn't it?

Just so that at least all relevant information is together.
Is there any information in the message you received?

Correct, that's my main.

Well, the below is what the message stated:

So I was surprised when I received this, but I had no clue that I did such a thing.

To the mod/ staff that banned me, could you show me the evidence prior to the ban?
