"If your comments are excessively inappropriate or you question why a comment was removed, YOU WILL BE BANNED. "

Ah, the sweet taste of power.
I especially like 'excessively inappropriate'. I always considered 'appropriatity' to be a binary state.

Weirdly, the phrase shows up on more than one comment enabled site, providing the answer to the riddle:
"What do 'concreteloop.com' , 'hollywoodteen.net' and 'thesuperficial.com' have in common?"

Also dailybubble.com,wesmirch.com, iwatchstuff.com, allegra.myblue.cc, isohunt.com, boyfuckgay.com, and benfolds.org

blog.peta.org.uk is a little more polite:
"If your comment is excessively inappropriate, or if you question why a comment was removed, you may be banned."

One of thesuperficial.com's commenters do say:
"hey, will somebody please post a comment that is excessively inappropriate and then ask why your comment was removed.. i want to see what happens"

Nothing seems to happen beyond casual yakkity about sodomizing Hasselhoff and sending him to space (two separate posts) : except the comment posting rules for that page do not contain the phrase in question. Retroactive edit?

Google claims 'about 2720' hits for "excessively inappropriate"
Yahoo claims ' 32,400'

Thats quite a spread.
