Partial ban after 4 years?!?

After some discussion and getting everyone on the same page, we’ve decided to lift your partial ban;

BUT!!

Since your partial ban was originally triggered by pushing those political and religious "agendas" in your posts, just keep in mind that repeating that behavior could easily land you right back in a partial ban. All the moderators are in total agreement here—we don't want any political or religious extremism in our shop; after all, alternative isn't really the place for those kinds of debates. Four years is a long time, so we’re hopeful you’ve realized what isn't allowed here and what breaks the rules. So, welcome back to alternative and—just use your head 😬

Since today's restriction was triggered by you pushing those political and religious "mandates" in your posts, just keep in mind that repeating that behavior could land you right back in a partial ban. The moderation team is all on the same page here—we don't want any political or religious extremism cluttering up our shop; at the end of the day, alternative sites aren't meant to be battlegrounds for that kind of stuff. Four years is a long time, and we're pretty sure you get why certain things don't fly here or break the rules, so—welcome back to the site, and try to use some common sense. 😬

Wait, where did you guys get the idea that I was actually asking to come back to this place? 🤷
And honestly, calling prophecies "religious extremism"—aren't they just an alternative to how people view values these days?

And where is this "religious extremism" in the prophecies—isn't that just an alternative to how people view values today?

😕
well then what's the point of being here if you aren't looking to get unbanned?!
how are we—most of whom haven't even touched the alternative site in four years—supposed to know what other reasons there are for a ban, besides the ones listed 🤷 maybe the subforum is the alternative, but we aren't exactly reading tea leaves or crystal balls here 😉

since you aren't asking for a partial lift, it all stays the same.

Plus, the thread is being locked because, honestly, the way this is set up just doesn't make sense anymore, especially since we're talking about things from four years ago.
