Update
I finally heard from dA staff.
The reason behind terminating my account was based on multiple reports of harassment and hate speech. The proof of this hate speech? The journals of mine that were meant as PSAs for theft.
They claim that, especially in regards to my first PSA back when Shanna was being harassed over a TDA model's attire, leading to myself being harassed for standing up for her. Due to the way things were worded, dA staff agreed that it was grounds for harassment and bullying.
Their second example was the PSA made during the entire LyraLaney debacle. Due to the amount of screenshots that disclosed personal information linked to the victims of Lyra, such as Paypal receipts and such, that was agreed to also be grounds for harassment and bullying, but doxxing was also considered due to said personal information (despite me doing my best to ensure that was either struck out or not shown at all).
The third was in regards to my account getting multiple reports for, again, harassment and bullying, with hate speech included in a couple of said reports. This comes not that long after my models were stolen for a third time, so I can only think that MEGACollector may have mass flagged my account as a final petty move for getting their own account taken down. It may not be related, but in my opinion its pretty fishy that the timeframe between their account being terminated and my own being terminated is too close to be a coincidence.
The deviantART staff concluded that, after taking a look at the types of journals I had posted over the years (and more recently, the PSA journals and status updates), my account met the criteria for breaking their guidelines on multiple occasions. I tried to argue with this claim, but again the proof they used were the PSAs and the multiple reports my account had supposedly gotten. It was also noted that "ban evading" was considered, but "gracefully" not thrown in as I was forthcoming with the fact that I had used incognito mode to check whether my content had been deleted from MEGACollector's gallery prior to their own termination.
They were firm on their stance and I will NOT be getting my account back. As frustrating as this is, there isn't much else that I can do to appeal their decision. As such, below is again the link to my alt account that will now ultimately become my new main account. I'm going to start uploading what I could save of my work (between tumblr, instagram, etc) now so that the gallery is not empty and I can get restarted.
