The only bullshit ban I got was when I said "That is great news!" when Virtua Fighter 5 was getting ported to the 360. Sfags were screaming, having fits, melting down, etc. in that thread and the mods started banning anyone who expressed positivity towards the news (as well as negativity towards Sfags). I guess Xfags were supposed to be sullen over the fact that a big PS3 exclusive was moving to the 360. That was during the time when it was made obvious that the gaming side had a huge Sony slant and you had to watch your words. I wound up getting banned for a month.
Edit: In the proper context, this was around the time where PS3 exclusives were starting to get announced for the 360. Also the PS3 wasn't doing well at all and sfags were extremely sensitive about this fact. So people got banned all over the place for not pining for Lair properly.
