So you were banned by mistake, let someone know (not sure who "the boss" would be but obviously you talked to someone), and then you were unbanned? That sounds like a pretty reasonable resolution.

With only two post to his name, it begs the question does he have a new account? Or was his name that tune post so offensive it had to be deleted?

Well it says he joined October 2014, so I'm assuming it's not a second account.

I don't think so since I can see that he has deleted posts from last year.

I guess my post must have been deleted, there was nothing offensive about it at all I posted details of a tune that I couldn't remember the name of and was subsequently banned! It's not bs it's what happened I did eventually find out the name of the tune but thought a forum might b able to help initially
