A good summary is here, from the last time this was asked: https://voat.co/v/AskVoat/3417443/20502717/20?#20502717

An official Vdare account Spammed it a bit 3 months ago, and it was temporarily banned for self-promotion. Did it again weeks later after a warning, and got it banned permanently.

I see, thank you.

That's a shame, some of the content is quite good.

If I use an archive link to vdare if I wanted to discuss an article, would that get me in trouble for circumventing the ban? It seems like the site was banned as a result of a bad user, more than the site itself.

It was banned due to the self promotion rule: no more than 50% of your submissions can be that domain. So, as long as they aren't 50% of your submissions, nobody's going to care.

As long as you limit it to 50% of your submissions.
