How do you find out exactly why you were banned?

I'm going to recommend that mods sign the ban reason with their name. You have to understand though that almost everyone throws a fit when they get banned even when it is well-deserved, so it's hard to take the legitimate complaints seriously after awhile.

Excellent idea. I will do that from now on so everyone can admire my handiwork.

That is a really good idea.  Also, leaving the content in the post would be helpful.  At SA, they use a pretty nice system whereby people are banned and their post is left in tact with "USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST" written across the bottom.  And it says who banned them below their avatar.  This helps people understand why they were banned and others understand what can get you banned.
