Apart from the fact that sarcasm and bad puns are the main-stay of my humour, they appear once in a while rather than all the time.

Change your signature to that and it will be left alone. Add it to your message and it has a reasonable chance of being dumped, possibly with the rest of the message. Why, because what some people are finding funny, many others are more than fed up with. The mods try to strike a happy medium without being heavy handed. But we also have a life, so are not generally going to get in to a debate about the rights and wrongs because there isn't the time.
Is it fair? No.
Freedom of speech? Nope.
Arbitrary and inconsistent? Almost certainly.
Will people get a ban if they push too hard? Permission's been given. Chill out and just accept that this one has run it's course or keep pushing until you cross the line in the sand. Trouble is, you'll only know you've crossed it when your account has been deactivated.
As I said, put it as a signature, or put weah-wow as a signature. Hell, push the boat out and put
weah-wow-bowchickawowow as your signature. Just don't push it too far there either!
