My first-ever banning!
I've been on the Internet for about 12 years, and I've been posting to forums for maybe 5 years, but I've never been banned from a site before. Yesterday, I was banned from Feministing.com after only posting about 5 comments. It wasn't that I said anything particularly outrageous, but I was accused of being a sock puppet.
Funny story: I had used "Ashley" as my screen name, but I had signed up using one my throw-away spam-collecting e-mail addresses, which used the name "Steve". So, I got banned because, by using my real name, I was apparently impersonating a woman!
