I'm glad it was resolved. However, what I read in what you say above is "I was doing something wrong, I knew it, I was asked to stop, I didn't, I got banned."

And my reply would be "That's good, the chatmods and admins were doing their job then."

Rules and policies are a framework for a wiki, which help people to be fair and consistent. They are not a guide for disruptive people to tell them exactly how much they can get away with! What you were doing is called "rules lawyering", which means keeping just inside the letter of the rules, but still being disruptive. And the best response to that is to deal with their actions in whatever way best protects the wiki and its community - even if that's not exactly "by the book".
