>>32635725Do you have a valid claim? Do you exactly remember what you wrote or what image you uploaded?
Keep in mind, the rules are a solid foundation and cultural rules are more so a grey area that can be interpretated in different ways. When posters write "Lurk more" this isn't just bitterness, but rather a shortened version of "Learn the ways of the board so that you don't get fucked by acting against the culture."
Here's an example; I could start a thread with a picture of Snivy and say "I wonder what Snivy's tail smells like, haha. Wouldn't that be funny if someone drew that? Just for laughs."
This doesn't really break any global or vp rules, as it indeed a topic about Pokemon, and wondering what Snivy's tail would smell like (haha). However, due to the cultural trend of /vp/ the thread would most likely be deleted because it is an emulation of the Yoshi egg meme (haha) from /v/. Engaging in cross board culture is often frowned upon, but depending on the staff of the board, can be forgiven since its that grey area of culture rules. That is why you should lurk and see what is acceptable and not.
Another example would be posting an image of Vulpix stretching and saying "I want to cum inside of Vulpix."
Due to the nature of this gray area, it can be questionable at times, but in most cases of "Why did I get banned?" appeals usually goes to the defense of the deletor and not the poster because its considered a defense of the staff to act in their best judgement with these grey cultural area rules.
If you believe this is truly not the case, use the IRC, or just lurk more.
