Hey, listen - context matters here, of course.
To the best of my knowledge, the punishment for those kinds of jokes is intentionally very harsh. It's a useful deterrent for that kind of behavior on one hand, and it also greatly limits the tolerance granted to people who make those jokes or remarks in bad faith.
That being said, I think it was a good idea to make this thread to give context to the ban so people don't have to make assumptions when they see that you were warned for "jokes about pedophilia" (or whatever the official verbiage is).
I think serving the remainder of the ban makes sense here (you'll literally be able to hop back on later tonight). The warn points will just serve as a silent reminder to be careful about potentially obscene or overly offensive jokes, and maybe give you some motivation to take a glance at the rules :)
