BadBear would know if QS was banned.
BadBear would probably remove QS from DT if QS lied about being banned - but that is just my thoughts.
If BadBear knows that QS has been banned, why his ban has not been extended due to ban evasion

One way or another things are strange, either QS faked his ban or the forum rules are not being enforced to him;
I guess both of them are friends? My guess is QS faked his ban for the "epic" comeback of his alt panther, which now that QS is active seems to be in the dust. Just my theory here, but I think QS actually being banned should be crossed out.
You guys can ask BadBear though, he seems to be online atm
