Anytime you impersonate anyone even jokingly this will likely happen. It happened to me before on a question where I said I was Jesus (and I think it's obvious that's not true). Is it fair? I don't know, I think it's pretty stupid, but what can you do? It is in the guidelines somewhere I believe which is rare to say... most of the time they delete stuff that isn't even mentioned by the vague outline they have posted, but everything else falls under "we can remove anything for any reason" part of their rules.

Don't get mad at me , but amongst the myriad of rules it does indeed state to not represent yourself as things other than human.
I only agree that it is a violation , but most Q/As are. That is how YA keeps total control of content.
If someone chooses to use a non human avatar that too is indeed a violation.
I don't like it but those are the rules.
"Be responsible and don’t misrepresent yourself, claim false credentials ."
If you can indeed prove you are the lord my god , then you can get it over turned.

Probably Saint Peter objected, it is his job at the gates.
As a thought- the moderators as making a violation in their statement in assuming that you are human.
They can not substantiate their claim that you are pretending.
This is grounds for an appeal, it is not stated that you have to be human to have an account.

Also, can they PROVE you're not god using the medium of the internet to communicate with is subjects.

Was that really the reason? Half the avatars and names on here should be banned then!
Yahoo need to google the phrase 'hypothetical question'!

Pin it up on your Wall of Fame. You don't move up the levels without accruing a few violation notices.

that is absolutely bs. satanism is the belief that we are all god. how would you be able to ask a question in that regard if a primary premise must be overlooked or you'd get in trouble.
by the way, i am god as well. and i perform miracles (fo' real)

It should not have been a violation.. Next time maybe you could word it like this. "If you stood in front of God. And he asked you why he should let you into heaven. What would your answer be ?" Maybe next time you could word like that
