it's a farce to penalize someone for doing something that isn't actually restricted, don't you think?
I tend not to let "fairness" come into the equation of my trust rating calculations.
That actually doesn't answer my question, you still penalizing someone for doing something that isn't restricted by the rules. So, could you, to spare your precious time as well as of all the others update the original thread and add that it is
restricted to send and share merits within your friends! Thank you!
And to be fair, "and I am not demanding it by any means", I just want to appeal to your fairness that this was a one-time "mistake"

you could let us go with just a "yellow card" instead of a red one (harming our trust).
That's most likely what I'll do.
Instead of a "yellow card", I call a little "timeout".
So, just out of curiosity could you tell me how long this is usually going to last, because as you can see in my post history, I opened an ANN Thread not that long ago and I doubt that anyone is going to trust me as long as I got this mark on me, thus I ask myself to remove the thread an open it again once you've removed it?
So what is wrong about changing my email? Are assuming that I just logged in to send merits?
That's usually what it indicates, yes.
