Can someone look into this and see what I did to cause a ban?

It was locked...

"This user's password was reset recently." "This user's email address was changed recently." and probably because of these two reasons...

Just to make it clear for the OP, a normal password & email change doesn't lead to this but instead "recovering the account using the secret question, is its cause".

So does this mean there is simply a "reset" or "cool-down period," or is this an actual ban? If so, how do I get unbanned for simply changing my email address and password?

Again, "it was locked". Follow this sticky thread (Recovering hacked accounts or accounts with lost passwords).

Thank you very much for the help, I've been around for a while, but did not know that using the secret question locked the account. I must have missed that PSA somehow.

The word "banned" jumped out at me more than "locked" did, so I was thinking the worst!

I have followed the steps and submitted the unlock request and requested info via email and PM as the quoted thread suggested. Hopefully it will be sorted out!

Thank you again for the assist.
