I don't remember why you were blocked and I think it was a while ago, but it certainly was not for asking for permission or even doing a contest.

When I asked permission, they immediately blocked me on Discord, they did not like my opinion and my view of mathematics in general. I tried to make it clear that mathematics has more applications than they think, without getting personal. But, right there, I was thrown from the server. This, somehow, is not solid for adults. Find my violations and I agree with this blocking.
I remember the conversation now (didn't when I first saw your comments).
You wanted to do a photography contest and tag it as math. I said it wasn't remotely related to STEM, and then you went on and on about how a photograph was made up of mathematic calculations and knowledge of geometry.
That is like me saying playing video goes is related to LEO as I spent money buying the game.
You continued to go on and on despite multiple people telling you it was not related to STEM. At that point I kicked you from Discord. I honestly can't remember if I muted you on STEMGeeks at that point, it is possible if I felt you were not keeping on topic. I looked at your account and the last post that was on STEMGeeks was 7 months ago.
I was in a good mood and I was just ... joking, why react so sharply to jokes?
I accepted your refusal, long before I was kicked out of the server, but I like to philosophize on the topic of mathematics))
It did not seem like a joke, it seemed like you legitimately wanted to shoehorn photographs as mathematics.
It is not always possible to convey emotions in words. Plus, giving up on an idea doesn't mean you shouldn't take every chance lol. Somewhere, deep in my soul, I agreed. True, I did not know that on Discord, you need to be extremely local, I'll take that into account)) I have not been here for the first day, and I treat many of you as family people whom I see every day and with whom you can talk on any topic. Unfortunately, this is only a superficial impression. Unfortunately.
But, mind you, I came to you asking permission, before than, to do something. This is very much appreciated in a normal society.
