FAQ

I have 4 warns and have been banned. Can I appeal a warn?
No. The warn appeal form only applies to members who have not been banned.

If you have been banned, please use the ban appeal form.

Can I appeal all my warns in one day?
No, you may only appeal a warn once every two weeks.

If you attempt to send in multiple appeals before the waiting period is over, the appeals will be ignored.

Is any warn appealable?
Minor misdemeanors such as line posting, spam or not conversing in English are examples of what may be appealed.

Warns relating to NSFW, scamming, impersonations, or hate speech are not appealable.

I was warned unfairly.
If you believe you were unfairly warned, please include proof in your appeal and we will review it.

However, the final decision in any case will ultimately lie with the Staff Team.
