Is LJ freaking out or is it me?

I tried to comment on a post and got a message that I have been banned from doing so.  This is surprising considering that I'm a friend of this person and have no idea why I would have been banned (without being unfriended).

Has anyone else gotten similar messages when trying to comment?

FWIW, if you have received such a message from me, there is something strange going on because I have not banned anyone...

I have.

As much as I have figured out, sometimes it is a baffling bug (there is one community I am a member of, but have been unable to post - there is ALWAYS some glitch. And yet other people do post ... I cannot understand what is wrong. The moderator answers my questions, but the one time she assured me she had helped my post along ... she then had to confess that she has no idea what happened, but she cannot find my post any more)

But sometimes the issue has been either a private or deleted entry - for some reason I have seen and read the entry, but when I try to comment, I cannot (I am not entirely sure what the error message did say when that happened)
