Is anyone else paranoid about getting kicked off?

I created this account a while ago, but I haven't used it very much because I tend to get banned from forums a lot over misunderstandings. Am I the only one who's a little bit afraid of posting something? In addition to autism I've also got clinical depression so it could just be that I'm being overly paranoid.

Well, lately I haven't been able to embed pictures or videos here. I'm guessing this is in response to the fact that I did it all the time. Maybe I'm also headed to the chopping block.

I have not been able to embed anything either... I don't do it all that much so I think it must be some sort of glitch.. being "limited" by admin never crossed my mid and doesn't feel likely to me.

Overall, I am not worried of getting banned because I am worried about getting banned lol.. meaning: I try to be on best behavior at all times to avoid it

I'm confused. what does embedding videos have to do with being banned?

Neither of those things work for me anymore

I am more concerned about other members turning on me and trying to run me off the board, as that is how my misunderstandings have played out in the past.

From my understanding this is a good community so I hope that doesn't happen here.

On internet message boards in general, flame wars and pile-ons are common. I haven't seen it here, but that doesn't prevent me from worrying about it.
