I find it pretty messed up that you got banned for the 5K post, but I dunno. He could have had a reason for it, but I didn't investigate anything, I'm just going to stay away from that.

Also, mods aren't demodded automatically either. Maybe he posted on the mod board requesting to be demodded, and Tal or whoever demodded him after he made a few more posts? Either way, I don't really want to get into it much more. He really isn't me favorite mod, I'll say that much.
