Yes, it is possible. But I agree that something should be done about the unnecessary violation notices, just like something should be done about the ones that go the other way: violations which do not get pulled.
The problem, I think, is that the whole violations process has become largely automated, and computers are not yet artificial intelligence. Especially when dealing with English, which is an enormously flexible and potentially very subtle language, there's only so much that can be accurately automated. We are not up to the standards set by our best science fiction yet. Perhaps tweaking this program is one of the ways we will get there.
In the meantime, take comfort in the fact that the automation which tossed you an unjust violation also caught more trolls than the earlier system which relied more on staff members reviewing the reports of violations. That was too easily overwhelmed by sheer volume, and this is a very, very big user base we are now in. Exciting in its potential, frustrating in its use by the excessively trivial and the tacky and the bigoted.

Someone reported you???!!! That's crazy talk. Cute little duck avatar like yours. By the way, what happened to the cute little duck?
FYI, cute avatars help. I'm almost at level seven and I've only got one violation notice since I changed from a person to a bunny. I may be tempting the powers that be by saying this but it's true.

You got a violation notice?? But you're so nice to everyone. At least that I can see. Sure, it's possible to be happy here, or basically anywhere. You just gotta let these things roll off you, well, like water off of your back *grin*

I'm sorry, Moon. It seems lots of people are complaining about that this morning.
Some people will never have anything better to do than make others unhappy. I wonder if that's because they, themselves are unhappy? Something sure isn't right with peiole who want to be so rotten.
Yes, its still possible to be happy, I am learning that.
Smile, Moon. Don't let the bad ones ruin your happiness. It's just what they want. :)

I have a wonderful friend here that was cloned, stalked and harassed, yesterday. She is a serious contributor. Some of her answers disappeared, although the trolls/clones continue there. I begin to think that it is difficult to be positive here. For happiness there is real life ;-)

I've had the same experience. They don't give an explanation for the violation even after I e-mail them about it.
