WHY DID I GET BANNED?!?
@Captain Lemon8 , why did you ban my travel profile @ andreatremble591? I had a total of 2 posts that talked about travel. No warning. No email. I can’t even ask to be reinstated? What TOS rules were broken? NONE! But y’all are fine with racism, gay slurs, sexism, and pedos on here.
