Im on a temporary ban too for 7 days but it already exceeded and Im annoyed with it. I dont know whats going on but something is wrong with this forum. Here is the link to my account: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1190389

And here is the ban notice i got.
Sorry ryap12, you are banned from posting or sending personal messages on this forum.
Reason: Participating in an on-forum altcoin giveaway (see https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3953664.0). Ban duration: 7 days

I would appreciate anyone who could help me.
I'll just quote what I've already said a few days ago:

If you've participated in multiple on-forum altcoin giveaways, the bans for said offenses can overlap (especially when the number of users getting banned for participating in that particular giveaway is in the hundreds or thousands since the way SMF handles mass bans is somewhat wonky). Looking at the banned account, I suspect that was the case here. The ban should end in 3 days (unless, of course, you get banned for participating in another giveaway).

I see. Thanks for letting me understand mprep. While I was ban too, Ive done some research and the answers Ive got from old discussions are different from one another. Can you link to me the thread containing the related rule? Pretty please? Aside from this https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3953664.0.

Im really confuse because some users said that you get a ban for posting "#authentication_participation" and base on the thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3953664.0, it's only indicated if I participate in a giveaway which is not in the bounties section.
It all falls under the "no altcoin giveaways" rule, as in it's both prohibited to run as well as participate in such giveaways. The original rule is stickied in the Altcoin discussion board and applies forum-wide.
