I believe jokes depend almost entirely on the delivery. Tonality, body language, facial expression, they all contribute to the punchline. On the internet, none of the can be seen, and a "smartass" comment or joke can easily be construed as a blatent insult to someone. Hence the Ban.
Lesson for me? No sarcasm on the internet, even the most obvious and blunt of wit is often mistaken for a serious comment or even insult.
