If you don't like the rules of the site just don't post here. I don't understand what you think you are contributing with this shit.

What 'shit' is that?
The post you referred too was a response which addressed the relevant comments, and added an opinion based elaboration.

That's a minimum requirement. It isn't the rules of this site. Here you put up a name. Doesn't have to be your real name, no-one's going to check. It can be a nickname, likewise. The reason is nothing to do with the DPA or otherwise it is to facilitate social interaction. 'M' is just a bit too anonymous. 'Em' would be okay.

Lol, so M being a shortened version of my actual real name is NOT ok, but FRED is OK to put? Ok! Will do that, for you.

Well. consider yourself out for a month for persistently being a dick. In that respect, you've been watched for a while, but enough is enough. AoS does not exist for your personal entertainment! FFS, you really don't know when to STFU
Enjoy your holiday, and if you do return after that, it'll be on the strict understanding that you refrain from such behaviour in future.

But FRED is not your name: according to your AoS profile, your name is " Wolfeschlegelsteinhausenbergerdorff ".

Just to answer this, as it's a point worth making, in terms of the use here of proper first names (whether real or not).... Well, if you'd put "Fred" on your profile to start with, as Martin says, no-one would've questioned it, as we'd have been none the wiser, and so you wouldn't have found yourself in this position now. Simples!
Again like Martin says, it's about facilitating credible social interaction, and which isn't best served by referring to someone as 'M', or 'XLMTZ444067', etc... Do your friends or family call you 'M'? Given that you're currently banned, that question of course is rhetorical.
If not, then it's unacceptable for anyone here to do so. Therefore, in future you'll addressed here by the same name, as others address you in real life; either that or you can invent something that's more acceptable than 'M'.
Would 'Michael', which appears to be the name you registered with, be what the "M' stands for? If so, that's what will be used in future, once your ban expires. No need to be shy!

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

Indeed, which is why anyone who feels the need to 'hide' stuff like that isn't really suited to being a member of our community.
I've never liked 'hiders' or folks who seek to be devious. You should always be 100% honest and upfront about who you are and where you come from, which is why in over 20 years of posting on forums, I've always done so under my real name and location!
