    Banned when discussing Man city’s potential transfer of Mahrez. Apparently for referring to Mourinho as “Maureen” and referencing how some fans “have been idiots.” Not naming anyone or personally singling people out

    I rarely post but that was a topic I was extremely interested in. I believe the majority of people who reported me where united fans, I reported them but nothing has happened.

    No warning given either, straight ban.

    Have you PM'd the moderator who banned you to see whether you can amicably resolve this issue?

    Yes and the response I received was “Just report the posts and let the mods deal with them,”

    I asked why the other members where not being banned also.

    Apologies, just to clarify I did recieve a warning at 8.31am and was banned then at 8.34am.

    I was not online at the time nor was I posting during this time frame.

    Thanks

    Asking why other members didn't get banned isn't an attempt to resolve your issue.

    Please engage with the moderator in relation to your ban before posting here again.

    I have tried to engage with the moderator, I was told to report the posts in which I did. I’m not sure what else I am supposed to do? Ive explained my part

    Have you specifically asked the moderator to lift or reduce your ban? From what you've said here, it seems like the only thing you've asked the moderator was why others weren't also banned but that has nothing to do with resolving your ban.

    Just to give an update, I will lift the ban.

    It appears that you received only 1 yellow which in this case should only warrant a warning and no ban.

    Apologies.
