So...I just joined this community today, and have posted several answers (SciFi Fantasy, not Meta), and I am now receiving the message that the site is no longer accepting answers from my account? I haven't posted anything (knowingly?) inappropriate, and have been offered no feedback of any kind, other than what's posted in the standard FAQ section.
I tried to backtrack through my posts and don't see any downvotes, but I don't remember every single topic I've looked at - I was really having fun exploring the site! I did notice that my newly-won reputation went from 11 to 1. What's going on? This is a really fantastic way to treat a new user. Maybe a better way would be to say "Hey, we know you're new, but you shouldn't have done this (insert offensive action here), so...don't do that!"
.......As with ALL the Stack family of sites, I am familiar with the tours and policies, and am unsure what happened or what I could possibly have posted that's so offensive I've been banned on my first visit?! If this site is like the rest of Stack, high-rep users and mods should be able to see my list of posts, can you tell me what I did wrong? The FAQ says you can go back and edit the offending post, but how am I supposed to do that with no direction as to where I was (apparently) heinously, unforgivably wrong? A little help here?
***An update, as soon as I posted this, my rep was restored to 11 again, and it says that I have not answered any questions. My assumption is that my answers horrified someone and they deleted them, which unbanned my account? I'm not sure. I'd like to remain a part of the community, and am happy to play by the rules, but polite and detailed feedback can really be helpful in a situation like this...
