  I wrote an article about Messi hitting someone in frustration in a soccer game. Somehow this post got flagged for inciting violence even when I said, ‘if you get mad, do not deal with it WWE style.’ Could someone explain?

  Where did you write that article as wordpress.com doesn’t have a 60 days ban.

  Hi, I’m sorry for the inconvenience,

  I think there was someone trying to impersonate WordPress and tried to do it as an April Fool’s prank. Their email is (email visible only to moderators and staff). They reached out to my friends as well with a similar email.

  Ah. Yeah that’s definitely not us. I’ll close this out.
