Post ban appeals by creating a "new topic" in the ban appeals board.
Please note that simply stating you were banned will not get you unbanned. You must include information as to what you did that might have gotten you banned.
Ask yourself these questions:
- Did you break any of the rules?
- Did you grief another players work?
- Did you swear excessively?
- Did you piss off an operator?
- Did you draw hateful symbols or say hateful remarks?
Any of the above things mentioned are valid reasons for you to be banned.
If you were banned, do NOT evade the ban by making another account!

Pissing off an operator should not be a reason why someone may be banned, That makes bans become a personal thing, as opposed to a tool used to protect honest, and rule-abiding members...
I plead for a removal of that "Reason" to ban someone immediately.
Your_Mine:
I understand your concern, but this has not been a problem for the whole time we've had the rule. It was put there I believe as a catch-all to allow operators to take action against clearly undesirable behavior that isn't specifically against any of the other rules.
SoulKnightGT:
You ever saw a clip from Family Guy? Well Stewie bugs his mother by saying, "mom, mom, mom, mommy, mommy, mommy, ect" She can't take it anymore and shouts, "what?!" He then says "hi"
It's like that. you bug us just to annoy us, no grief, no trolling, nothing.
Hasan (Tabooti):
It's still unreasonable, an operator may have had a bad day, or someone may ask too much of an operator, It shouldn't be under "Ban guide" as it does give them full privilege to ban anyone they like for "Pissing them off"
At least the rule should be modified, to include such actions that may harm the community as opposed to one person.
You can at least put "Don't disobey orders or, warnings by the operators as it may result in a ban"
I just found "- Did you piss off an operator?" To be a lot like a server with moderators & operators banning people because people pissed them off, It just sounds like a very totalitarian server, and I don't think that anyone may want that.
The reason I put this up is to prevent any problems in the future, as opposed to saying "Well we're going to put this rule up, till an issue comes up"

Right, so you specify that, You don't say "Don't piss me off"
because that's not a dentition of what someone has to avoid, Different people may be ticked off by certain things.
Just switch it to "Obey all instructions by admins, moderators & Operators"
I've been in situation where looking at someone pissed him off, and he threatened to shoot me. and just looking at him.
Just specify what these things may be. and this isn't under "Rules" This was under "Ban guide" So a guide to moderators, admins & operators.
I expect our moderators, admins & operators to be mature, They shouldn't be given the privilege to ban someone if they got mad at them.
