    If you responded, you committed a chat violation and/or an insulting violation. If someone makes comments, report them don't respond.

    Also, your question may have been a violation when you asked it. If you want to know reasons, you have to post the e-mail we got so we can see the EXACT context. Your "nice" can be a violation several ways.

    Someone with clout or several people reported you.

    This is not a one to one chat site for socialising, it is for use as the name suggests.

    Anything other than that is a violation...

    Although i agree that some violation notices are just not necessary.

    because there are alot of little kids and pansies on here who can't take any sarcasm or humor and make it a personal vendetta to "tell on you" and get you in trouble. they write some bs like you were threatening them or something to ensure you get the violation

    they should just ban children under 18 from this site and then 95% of the violations would stop

    also if the kids didn't ask such retarded questions maybe people would be a little nicer with their responses
