Any site counts, including being banned from little groups on large sites (like if one of the groups on TBT kicks you out of the group for having a villager they don't like).
What did you get banned for?
When I was a kid my sister dared me to say something

That sounds unjust.
Maybe you have siblings or other relatives that use GameFAQs and got IP banned themselves.

It was a great site in it's time. It was my first forum, though, so I'm probably biased. It's just refusing to change is killing it. And no one on it wants to believe that.
But there was a large portion of time where PTs were let go. No one cared and no one reported. It was just considered common courtesy, and you never added members that were too sensitive.

The point isn't their opinions the point is that the moderate the site based on them. It's okay to have certain views but it's wrong to expect everyone to listen to and abide by them.
They don't ban people for being gay. You just can't say gay it's a filtered word. And you can't discuss the topic of being homosexual because it's too controversial.

Oh, I thought they were discriminatory. But yeah, some sites don't allow controversies that big. On LBPC, we were arguing about abortion and if an unborn fetus is considered human. The admin told us that it's "very touchy and better left out of the debate". We got no official warnings for discussing abortion, but we stopped. I bet that's worth an IP ban to talk about abortion on ACC. I still hate it that they ban users who even complain about how strict they are.

don't stress yourself out too much. karma is going to bite ACC in the behind. lack of updates and willingness to ban and restrict users over minute issues adds onto their decline.
Thank you, thats nice to hear. I worried about it for a short while after it happened, but I never doubted my decision. The site chose to opt for the lifespan of the site instead of the values, that's a decision they are free to make and they did, in a democratic way (well, if you consider a handful of supermods representing over a thousand of members democratic, imo it is democratic because they were chosen primarily by the members). However the choice they made would never be mine, on a subject important enough for me to stick to my beliefs. Therefore leaving only felt bad for a very short period.

Maybe this is technically not a "ban" but my neopets account was frozen. I think it was due to inactivity since I didn't play in a few years. I also got banned from Runscape for trolling some people with my siblings back when everyone was asking for girlfriends/boyfriends on that site.

Okay. But just letting you know, that's one of the three sites I heard the most banning stories from on this thread. The other two are Club Penguin and Neopets. ACC is very strict, but Neopets and Club Penguin are trying to be child friendly. And you are right about how bad welfare can lead to losing publicity.
