A horse of course

Look, I don't think it's necessary to point fingers at this stage. Clearly mistakes were made. I can't possibly imagine what torturous cavalcade of misunderstandings led to the staff infringing upon my rights, for at no point was I anything less than entirely in keeping with the spirit in which this feature was implemented. Certain individuals (and I shall forego naming names, since the burden of their guilty consciences have, in the course of my long absence, undoubtedly subjected the perpetrators to far more grievous punishment than a formalized tribunal of redress could hope to match) characterized my application of this tool as "spamming", or "harassment", or - ludicrously - as "brofisting every fucking post I make". Let me assure everyone that each and every situation in which I handed out a brofist fell into one of the following five categories:
A: The post contained something I found witty, or in rare cases genuinely amusing
B: The post communicated information that was beneficial to my - or another codexer's - comprehension of a particularly difficult or complicated issue, such as the relationship between the Congolese precious metal industry and the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, or the influence of gendered pronouns in wider discussions of individual and group identity
C: The post necessitated a significant amount of effort or research on the part of the original poster
D: The post was made in the context of a remarkably animated discussion between two or more posters, and by showing my approval of the post I signaled a desire for both parties to continue edifying the rest of us
E: Any posts made by Trash between the years 2002 and 2004
With this in mind, I think you'll agree that the best course of action would be to restore my rights - and my dignity - as a human being, and put any and all past errors on your part behind us.
