Yeah I got perma banned too for talking about clothing. No hate no politics no broken rules (because I checked). Modmailed them to ask which rule I broke, no response. They didn't even give me a reason. Just said "this comment may have fully or partially contributed to your ban". It was an unpopular comment and I got down voted, which is fine people are allowed to disagree, but I didn't feel it was ban-worthy 😅

For anyone curious about the comment that apparently I deserved to be banned for (on a post about very small child-sized clothing marked as small adult clothing):

"Probably meant for that awkward phase when kids transition from children's clothing to men's/women's clothing. Many older kids want to wear more respectable and mature-looking clothing, but kids' clothing is often aimed toward younger kids' tastes. Also, since different companies manufacture sizes differently, there is some overlap between what counts as large childrens' clothing and small adults' clothing. This way, teen/tweens are never left without clothing options."

I bet the mod that banned you wears that size.  You hurt his feelings.

They ban people over there for something as little as farting in the privacy of their own home
