As some of you might have noticed, I'm no longer in the Signalis Discord Server. Unfortunately, a few days ago I was permanently banned (and because of that I was banned from the Signalis Subreddit too) The stated reason was due to "Illegal actions or breaking Discord ToS." which is a very serious allegation. However during my appeal, the moderator handling my case explicitly told me the mod team was *not* accusing me of grooming or doing anything illegal. They explained they had banned me due to concerns of me accepting an NSFW commission from someone who had recently turned 18. Before accepting this NSFW commission, I had explicitly asked if they were over 18, and they told me "Yes". This commission itself was requested only after they had already turned 18, but I had no idea that their birthday had been so recent. At *no* point did I have any inappropriate relationships with this person nor did I send anything NSFW or explicit before they were 18. Every message I sent was strictly professional just like every client I've worked with. I would never intentionally break any server rules and especially discord TOS. Had I known this person just recently turned 18 and that accepting a NSFW commission from them would result in a ban, I would have declined this commission immediately. What hurts the most isn't just losing access to the server but its been finding out that the wording of the ban reason has left people with the wrong impression about me n what actually happened. In the nearly 4 years I've spent on the Signalis discord server, I've shared many WIP screenshots and videos, shared models and other resources for my fellow animators, collabed with others and made many friends along the way. The Signalis discord server has been a huge part of my creative journey, and it really saddens me that this is how my time there has to come to an end. It's now been almost a week since I got banned. Despite following up, I still haven't received any further updates or word on my appeal. I don't wish any ill will toward the moderators or the server staff, and I respect whatever decision they ultimately end up making regarding my ban. I also don't want this post to become a reason for anyone to harass them. My only goal is to explain why Ive suddenly disappeared and to clear up any misunderstandings surrounding my ban. If the mod team would still like to continue this conversation, my DMs are always open. I'm more than willing to answer any questions or clarify any concerns. And to everyone who has supported my work over the years on the server, whether you've seen my WIP posts, downloaded my models, commissioned me, collabed with me, or even simply just been a friend there, I just wanna say Thank you. Your support means a lot to me, and I'm truly heartbroken that things had to end this way.

I regret drawing that
