Im so confused right now. I posted a thread in the mens clothing section with a link to a really cool site I found and the next thing I knew my account was banned. Why would they ban my account? I dont get it? I had to sign up again and use another browser just to post this.

Any ideas?

Its a site I found on a GQ blog. It has a bunch of really old pictures of stylish people with links to places you can currently buy the stuff they are wearing. In my mind, that seems like a fairly relevant site in a forum dedicated to mens fashion, no?

This is the site I found it on. http://www.gq.com/style/blogs/the-gq-eye/

Its bullshit that I had to sign up again just to post this.

Hmm, not sure what happened but you might have posted right before/after a spam post and gotten spaminated by accident. I've reinstated your account, sorry for the confusion.
