Yep, was sent here to appeal. For the record I would not have posted if I realised that was violating warning.

1 post by another user unapproved. But in response to that poster please note forum cards and bans are dealt with in the Dispute Resolution Forum, once you have exhausted your discussion with the mod in an attempt to resolve it directly

PR, if you click on the link beside "Baggly" in the quote in the OP that will bring you to the warning and a number of deleted posts immediately preceding it
