A few brief FAQ related to infraction appeals.
How do I post an Infraction Appeal?
Click into the appeals subform, click "Appeal your infraction" in the top right corner, and fill out the form, which will proceed to post a thread on your behalf. Describe your appeal thoroughly with as many details as you can remember; post logs/screenshots if necessary. And remember to please be respectful. Understandably if you are appealing an infraction emotions are running high between you and a moderator. Senior Staff expects our moderators to approach appeals in a mature fashion and we expect the same from someone who is appealing.
My appeal was denied! How many times can I post an appeal?
Only appeal an infraction once; everyone gets a fair shot, but if your appeal gets denied and no new evidence comes to light, there's also no reason for us to go back on it.
My friend was banned, so they can't post an appeal! Can I post one for them?
Yes; use the forum ban appeals subforum instead. If you are conveying an appeal from a banned user, you are expected to act as the point of communication throughout the appeal. We're not tracking down BannedMan123 on Discord to let them know the status of their appeal. If you are conveying an appeal, you are assumed to be at least neutral towards unbanning them. If you believe they should stay banned, there is nothing wrong with telling them to find someone else to post. You cannot appeal a forum ban solely on behalf of another user; they must write the appeal in their own words.
