The most common method of getting banned from the site seems to be: be a bot and/or spam other people's journals.
I think there are aren't a ton of refugees because we are small and most people aren't doing long-form blogging as much. Also, the built in audience isn't really there for (some of) the more controversial stuff. There's a pretty strong social code toward civility. Historically the user base hasn't been terribly interested in the more video based pornography (and porn-bots, like other spam, are ruthlessly squashed), more in the artistic or written erotica type. (visual media support also isn't terribly strong, you cannot host pics natively).
The community also tends to skew female, liberalish, geeky, and I would bet mid 20s-mid 40s. Not really the target audience for most mainstream porn, or most severely conservative politics.
I think there was a code-push not that long ago, so development isn't abandoned, just v. v. slow. :P
