No, they have fully banned and shadowbanned. If you are shadowbanned you can login and check the appeals page but your posts and comments will no longer be visible. If you are fully banned you cannot log in.

That is called "muted". It is not a shadowban, by definition.

It doesn't say that your posts and comments are invisible - they just are.
