I believe that it is legitimate to look at the abuse team's responses to different complaints in general, and to see whether the policy's being applied fairly in principle. I also believe that looking at two individual cases in separate areas of the TOS does not in itself make for a good assesment of the overall actions of the abuse team. I also believe that doing it while you yourself are the subject of one of the alleged violations makes it harder to judge your case on its own merits.

I'm genuinely sorry you got banned from LJ, though, and I don't think the actions of the abuse team look at all fair.
