Hi ,
I was recently banned from participating in bounties with the reason "AI responses".
I would appreciate a manual review of my case . If any of my submissions violated the bounty policy , could you please let me know which special responses led to this action?.
I'd like to better understand the decision so I can avoid making the same mistake in the future .
If the ban was applied in error , I would be appreciative if my eligibility to participate in bounties could be restored.
Thank you for your time and assistance.

Hello!
We have banned you for sending responses that were either misleading or clearly AI generated.
At this time we will not be moving forward with an unban.

Hi,
Thank you for the review.
I understand your decision and I do not argue with that. However, I wanted to provide a bit of context regarding my participation in the bounty program.
My goal was never to post low-quality or misleading responses. In many bounty threads, I saw users facing urgent production issues that could impact customers, deployments, or revenue. I tried to help them identify possible causes and troubleshooting paths so they wouldn't have to wait solely for an official response if the issue was not actually related to Railway infrastructure.
That said, I understand that intent does not guarantee quality. If some of my responses were considered misleading or appeared AI-generated, I respect that concern.
The part I am struggling to understand is which aspects of my contributions led to that conclusion. I would appreciate any guidance, examples, or feedback you are willing to share, as it would help me improve the quality and style of my future contributions.
I understand that the ban will remain in place for now and I will respect that decision. Thank you again.

We appreciate you accepting the decision gracefully. We're not able to provide a per-submission breakdown of which responses were flagged, but the general guidance is to ensure contributions are original, accurate, and directly relevant to the specific issue at hand. You're welcome to re-appeal in 4-6 months as mentioned.
