Changes made to the ban appeal policy
#1
Community,

We have decided to make a change to the ban appeal policy which will now allow players banned for extended periods of time a chance to prove their innocence as well as give them a chance to appeal bans they received years ago.

The old policy when it came to ban appeals over 3 months was that you were only allowed 2 attempts at an unban request. Now, we are implementing this new policy:

Bantime under 1 week - A second unban request is not allowed.
Bantime over 1 week - You are allowed to post a second unban request 1 week after the first denial.
Bantime over 1 month - You are allowed to post a second unban request 2 weeks after the first denial.
Bantime over 3 months - You are allowed to post a second unban request 2 weeks after the first denial, and a third unban request after 8 weeks of the second denial.
Bantime over 1 year - You are allowed to post an unban request 3 months after the first denial, then every 8 months after the previous unban denials.  

The text in bold highlights the changes made.

As said above, we hope this gives players banned for long periods of time a chance to prove their innocence. 


Please note: Any ban appeals made that involve ex-staff or are for bans that are 3 or more months old may take longer to review.

Well, some people do deserve second chances, some don't. Either way, the policy update is decent from my view.

Looks good. Better for the perma banned, who want to be unbanned.

Looks good.

Looks great. Giving people who want to return a chance sounds very reasonable!

People who was previously permanently banned is just given false hope lol.

Their requests get denied anyways, "you broke the rules no reason for unban kthxbie"
