Banned from Quora

Those of you familiar with my content will be aware that I mostly posted on Quora - over 2,000 times - to pass time, which helped me get through my long commutes (three hours a day in 2018 and 2019) and which was has recently helped me forget that I was stuck in this house in Monza because of the coronavirus.

I was also a part of the Quora Partner Programme. Hang me if you must.
Up til yesterday I had written around 800 questions and earned $10. Today I was bored and started translating questions from English to Italian. Once I reached my goal of 100 questions today, I sighed in relief, only to discover that I had been banned for writing low quality questions.
I'm not sure whether I made too many grammatical mistakes (I'm only aware of one of my questions being corrected) or whether the fact that nearly all of the questions pertained to goat, sheep and wolves was the crux of the issue.

But anyway, now my Quora adventure has ended.

It was nice knowing all of you!
