So my sig was removed, because it violates the forum guidelines somehow. But, I don't know how exactly it violated the forum guidelines. Normally, when Mods removed my posts (it's happened 5-6 times) I would get an email saying why it happened, this time it did not, and with the lack of ability to directly communicate via PM or some other means, I have no way to ask them directly to get my answer so I can avoid doing it again in the future. So I pose this question to everyone here: why was it removed?
(my sig was the drawing of a mithra with a kannagi, was in purples/blues/greys and had a bit of graffitti on the side)

This is the only reason I found that makes any sense at all, since it was a drawing of a mithra that I made, maybe SE was mad I imposed on their material and made a drawing of content they owned? But that seems wrong somehow, like they wouldn't really care.
