It seems as though the ones who do suffer from ban paranoia or have become apathetic to receiving bans are the ones who repetitiously are banned.
Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
Albert Einstein
If you do not know by now what responses or posts put you in that category, you either fail to learn or don't care about the consequences.I'm totally apathetic to bans, but I still haven't been banned yet.
Your Einstein quote doesn't have anything to do with this either.
Those who are paranoid are because they expect to be banned, not because they don't learn. They do the same thing, post within the rules, and expect the same result, ban't.
Likewise, apathetic folks just keep doing what they're doing and don't care about the consequences. They don't expect anything because what happens doesn't make a difference to them. They aren't insane.
Neither category here is insane because of their view and history regarding bans, and the generalization is logically weak.
I disagree.
Many post knowing full well they crossed the line, but post anyhow and are hoping to not be detected and get away with it. Like you said "apathetic folks just keep doing what they're doing and don't care about the consequences" which is totally true. At the same time they have no room to complain, yet always seem to.
My point was to the op's view of "I just can't tell what'll get me warned/banned anymore."
It really should not be that difficult to figure out, hence the Einstein quote.
The theory here being;
'I did 'X' / I got banned.'
'I did 'X' again / I got banned.'
'I did 'X' again / I got banned.'
'I don't know what is getting me banned.'
