I got a one week forum ban for a really stupid reason, even the mods think so but have to stick to the rules. If you don't see me around for the next week, that's why! I still love you guys and I'll be stalking and crying about all the pretty new Sphinxes I can't win 
If you're curious, I won an auction which stated payment had to be made within 1 hour of auction ending. I was sick as a dog for the last 36 hours and sent payment as soon as I read the PM stating I had won but apparently it was after the 1 hour timeline. I don't even know when I sent the bid because I managed to do it from my phone in between visits to the loo to throw up.
So, since I missed the 1 hour payment deadline, the seller reported me for breaking auction rules and I received a 1 week ban. Technically, it should have been a 2 week ban, but because the mods thought that a 1 hour payment timeline wasn't exactly fair, they reduced my "sentence" and are probably going to change Auction rules because of this. Something to the effect of a 24 hour perdiod minimum for payments made, unless it's a Quick Auction.
And - despite reporting me for breaking auction rules and getting me a ban, the seller still accepted my bid and sold me the pony.
Twat.
