Maybe make a type of 'application' for ban appeals that can be posted on this thread. They can then give more precise information and it partially stops them from flaming.


Application format?

Liiiiiike

Username
Code
Time Banned
Reason
Who Banned You?

Except more professional and such.

Yep. There could even be another forum section specifically for the mods to be able to see this if you want to keep it more private.

It would certainly be an improvement from the standard 'I am banned and I don't know why. help'

Just a suggestion, maybe only SE mods and the one who appeal can reply/post ?

I think sometimes other people weighing in can be helpful. Also the main problem is usually people don't know who banned them or what the reason was for. I doubt we could include either on the format. A format does seem like a nice idea though; I'll put it into the OP once we work out exactly how it's going to be

this can be helpful, but can also be harmful if the weighting is not appropriate ,valid point but arguable tho

but what about if a mod make any ban on an account longer than a week, then he has to post here with the reason and screenshot ? (except on alts / inappropriate account names)

Make banning someone slightly more complicated.
When you ban them, select length, and a reason, or other.
Now it doesn't just tell you you've been banned, it tells you why.

Good idea. How about you go mention this to CJ on the thread? This addition would be useful.

Hmmm. I don't think it should be necessary and how often will accounts that aren't alts/names get month or year bans? I mean I guess we could but I don't think it would even happen that often.

Okay so how often do you think you'd be mentioning Month/Year bans excluding alts and names if you were to mention all such bans on this thread Myst? I personally would almost never need to.
