I have not been banned.
SMC and I do not obviously agree on many issues. As for any malicious edit, I edit posts all the time because I'm so scatterbrained and revisit posts after the fact instead of reviewing them before posting.

Edit or not, my initial intention should be aware in the unedited post and would only be refined for literary clarity or apology given the individual case. While I find the situation to be upsetting, there was no pre-planned or post-edit scamming that I know of. I was upset, and contacted ILA as I was advised.

In response to the title of the thread - because they are insecure cunts perhaps??
