Heyo Railway team/mods,
I will be straight up with you, I am fairly new to Railway and I read the code of conduct, the "what are bounties?" modal and the bounties page in docs and I did not see AI wasn't allowed. I double checked and unless I am truly blind or my search function doesn't work I couldn't find any mention of AI answers resulting in a ban.
Kindly point me to the rule I am sure I missed outside of my search of all the bounties pages and info I could find.
I don't expect you to unban me if those are the rules and claiming that I didn't see the rule is probably the oldest trick in the book. I am just being honest and maybe that is enough to let me try again with new knowledge that AI answers are in fact banned.
Thank you for taking the time to review my appeal and I look forward to hearing from you.

Following up on my appeal I wanted to add some additional context after doing more thorough research.
I went back and systematically checked all the bounty-related documentation I could find:
The Community Code of Conduct (station.railway.com/community-code-of-conduct)
The "What are bounties?" modal on the bounties page
The Community docs section (docs.railway.com/community)
I could not locate any explicit mention of AI-generated answers being prohibited. The closest language I found was "The community is built on genuine peer-to-peer help" in the Code of Conduct, but this doesn't specifically mention AI or automated responses.
If there's a separate Terms of Service, bounty-specific agreement, or another location where this policy is documented, I'd appreciate being pointed to it so I can fully understand the violation.
I'm really not trying to argue the ban — I just want to make sure I have complete information going forward, whether that's with Railway or other platforms.
Thanks again for your time reviewing this.
