Can someone translate this gibberish into English please. Punctuation and spelling would help me attempt to understand what he's saying.

Maybe that's why you were put in GM jail, you kept shouting words noone knew what they were and the GM thought you were being offensive.

The ToS means very little when it's enforced completely at any one GM's descretion. It's like we're dealing with those small, technical driving laws like using your lights to change lanes and making a complete and utter stop at a stop sign before continuing. Police aren't enforcing them all the time, if at all, because they're primarly a tool for them to pull over people they suspect of commiting larger crimes to investigate. You can't pull somebody over because you think they're selling pot out of their trunk, but you can pull them over because they forget to signal their lane change and investigate from there.

The only people that I know who got banned for shouting deserved it. You probably do too, just as you are probably not giving the entire story in your post. Next time, you will think before you open that big mouth. If only RL had such countermeasures...
