Hey all! Apologies to post publically here, but it appears to be the only recourse. I appreciate everyone is busy, so i am assuming the public forum functions to pose questions and hopefully illucidate a situation for everyone.
Earlier today in a main chat someone posted in Portugese - i messaged them to caution against it as the chat is English only. I actually tell people this alot in an effort to be helpful - because, as i said to the user, i once said something in a different language about three months ago without thinking and i was banned.
Upon telling this cautionary tale i was immediately ejected and my ban is that I was "avoiding another ban". I don't have such a thing, i don't understand what happened. Look, if it was something else, ok, but i have to know what it is - and I'm happy to abide by it. But as it stands it seems that i as helping someone stay within the chat rules and that somehow got me kicked. Can someone shine a light on this?
Very many thanks :)
 
Your Ban Appeal doesn't follow instructions provided in the Ban Appeal form. When instructions are ignore and information is missing, Ban Appeals are ignored most of the time.
 
I appreciate your response. It's not a ban appeal, it's an appeal for clarity - i have read the rules, and the issue here is the implementation of the ban and the nature of the ban itself - that i was avoiding a ban i do not have.
Thank you for your response but i cannot appeal something that is based on a surreality. To this end, please understand that I'm happy to launch an appeal, but you have to tell me what I am appealing against.
 
I have no idea what you're appealing. YOu've filed an appeal and excluded information requested in teh instructions. How are we supposed to proceed? it's a dead-end.
 
This is a catch 22 - i don't know what to appeal because i haven't been told what the ban was for. You issue the bans, the ban i have been given says i circumvented a ban i didn't have. The onus is on the issuer of the ban to know what the ban is for, not the recipient.
Tell me what the ban was for and i'll appeal it. If you can't tell me what it was for, then i shouldn't have been banned.
We proceed by the issuer of the ban clearly iterating the cause of the ban - that's your responsibility, not mine. If there is no clear cause for the ban, there shouldn't be one. There's your solution
 
Oh, okay. In that case, I'll assume the ban was implemented for any or no reason.
The ban will remain in-place until its expiry. Lengths of bans are not discussed and could range anywhere from one minute to one year.

Is there anything else I can help you?

That was the clarity I was looking for, the ban was because i did or didnt do anything.
No thank you, this was more than helpful. Cheers!
 
That clarity was there for you to view when you signed up and each time you log in. Cheers, m8.
