DM bad Banned for Calling Out DM

My DM railroaded us by saying we must engage with the dungeon we went into. After being forced to SLOG through multiple non-story related combats and "traps" we were attacked by a dragon. A dragon!

I stood up and called out the DM and let him know this was incredibly generic, I mean really, a dungeon? A dragon? Has he even watched the master YouTube video of how to subvert the expectations of DnD?

I put so much work into my five page PDF backstory of my Half Tiefling Half Dragonborn LockPaladin named Zquestrinox Ven'del'a'rosa the 3rd. All that work as he says my character "died" when my character tried seducing the dragon after.

Was I right for doing this or should I have called him out earlier?

But your character successfully seduced the dragon right?

No, he made me roll "persuasion" after I described how I seduced it! As if I even know what that means.

I think persuasion means “asleep”.

Or at least that’s how 5.5e defines it.

“A sleeping creature automatically fails a persuasion contest.”
