Also it's a natural progression, it's a thing called vibing which is a social term where people send cue's, usually something like a meme, in which people ping back in a way to portray energy levels and personality. It's a way humans demonstrate themselves without articulation upon it with labels such as "I like long walk on the beach". It's telling clues of the person's general energy, emotions, how switched on/intelligent engaged they are, etc etc.
What you did wrong was that you had a set agenda in order to actively portray a gesture or peice of your "personality" (read self image, i.e. ego), in order to illicit a fixed result. People are put off by that. How it went wrong is that in your attempt you also completely showed you have no concept or understanding, intuitive or not, of social vibing which is the unwritten ruler in which we measure things as humans. Members community saw your lacking knowledge and so then rejected it as "not spam, not our values, not the energy that is given value to pump up our emotional state, rejected".
You then went overboard when you took a gif that said "stop" to some varient and your ego went on the defensive, which further solidifies it's weakness and therefore the weakness of your mental frame, and therefore the ranking of which people will hold you in terms of social value.
