Default What Gives

So I posted in PR&C a comment. Mod didn't like that comment so he deleted it. I amended the comment so it reflected the conversation better and didn't have the part that the mod didn't like. Then I was banned for a month? Is this standard practice? A month?

There's no way to message anyone once you're banned. There's no way to do anything but make another account. This is me trying to contact the mod (as it stated in the banned message). There's no phone number for CF support.

Have you tried PMing the mod that banned you with this new UserID?

PMs are disabled until a certain time frame or post count? I was hoping that this post would unlock it. Oh well. Looks like I'll just countdown until this account is banned as well. I'm on here all the time. Huge bummer..

There's a Contact Us in the footer (bottom) of each forum-based page that can be used to contact CorvetteForum without an account:
https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/sendmessage.php

That would be the proper method to contact the Staff rather than returning with a new account and then posting about it in the Help section as both are against the simple Guidelines.

https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...and-rules-109/

https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...questions.html

Specifically:
If you have suggestions for the improvement of the Forum, questions or criticism of the Forum or its moderation, you are welcome to PM or e-mail a moderator. Please do not use an open thread for such messages, however.

That would include, but is not limited to discussions about who has been banned and why.

The work on the Forum's volunteer moderators is difficult enough without having folks calling them out in open threads.
