I got banned from N4G yesterday, which was the same day I signed up and made an account on their site, and I have no idea why they banned me.
Let me explain in detail what happened.
I read a story on N4G about potential names for Scorpio. here is the link.

I then decided I would post my two cents in the comments, but first I had to make an account, so I did. Same username I have on this site. Nothing profane. I then clicked on the link in my email to confirm the account, and was good to go. I then posted something very similar to this, under that article:
------------------
Xbox One X and Xbox One Elite seem to be names that are sticking around. I'm not crazy about Xbox One X and Xbox One Elite already exists.
I think it could potentially be called either Xbox Two, Xbox Four, Xbox 460, Xbox One 460, Xbox One SC, or Xbox One SE.
Two comes after One. Four since its the 4th Xbox. 460 for 4k/60fps. SC for Scorpio. SE for Special Edition or S Elite.
------------------
This is exactly what I posted if I remember correctly. Anything that might be left out would be very minor.
After posting I signed out and closed the site. 6-8 hours later I went back to the same site and article, and looked at the posts to see some newer comments. I eventually realized my post was nowhere to be found, which was odd. I wondered if there was a glitch or something maybe, since sometimes, quite rarely, when I comment on YouTube, after I sign out, my comment totally dissapears for that video, but if I sign back in, my comment appears again.
I decided to sign back in to N4G to see if this was the case, then at the top of the login pop up in a red bar it said "! You have been banned from the site".
Truthfully I don't really care all that much since I don't frequent N4G very often, and I don't comment on other sites all that much anyway, but I'm just curious as to why they might have decided to ban me? Any ideas?
