Some background: Unless the people voting to close are *certain* the question would be a good fit for a migration target, they're supposed to pick "off-topic" and not migrate it. The point is to avoid migrating crappy questions to another site. Since ServerFault used to be subjected to tons of crap migrated from SO, I suspect we're more likely than some SE sites to close in preference to migrating. Now, for your particular questions... You've deleted at least one question, your profile shows 6 questions (3 closed) and 5 answers. The first thing to keep in mind is that deleted questions and answers still count towards a question ban. Start by reading [this Q&A about question or answer bans,][1] then follow the link to the meta.SO question for more details. As per the meta.SO question, you *might* also get un-banned if you contribute some more good answers. Since 3 of your 5 answers are to your own questions, you haven't got a lot of votes. Your best bet if you want to get un-banned is to improve your questions. If you think you can improve your deleted question(s), you can edit them and then flag for moderator attention with a note saying that you've tried to improve it. You may be able to do the same thing for the questions you think belong on SU - edit to improve them, then flag for a moderator, and they might migrate them.
