Appeal a ban

Appeal a ban

An appeal is not a formality. We compare the decision again with the original evidence and the rule we used. A calm message helps your case far more than shouting.


Find your record first

Minecraft punishments are on the Minecraft ban list, Source bans on SourceBans. Before you write, get the ban ID and the reason listed next to it. Otherwise you end up arguing against something that did not happen.

What we actually check

We look at three things. Whether the evidence really matches what happened. Whether we used the right rule. And whether the punishment fits your history. Hard or disputed cases get a second read from a more senior team member.

How it works

Look up the punishment

Get the ban ID, the date and the reason from the relevant ban list.

Open an appeal ticket

Use Discord or email, one appeal per punishment, with the template filled in.

Explain, do not argue

Give context, admit what happened if it happened, and say what has changed since.

Get a documented outcome

The result is explained and recorded, so it can be reviewed again later if new evidence appears.

Appeals that work

Correct ban ID, honest account of the incident, new context or evidence, and a calm tone.

Appeals that fail

Insults, ban evasion while appealing, pressure through public channels, or denying something clearly on video.

Evasion resets nothing

Joining on an alternate account during a ban extends the punishment and usually removes the option to appeal.

One appeal at a time

Duplicate tickets slow your own case down. Wait for the answer before opening another.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How long does an appeal take?

Most appeals are answered within a few days. Cases that need senior review or older log checks can take longer, and you are told when that happens.

Can a permanent ban be lifted?

Sometimes. Permanent bans for cheating or hate speech are rarely reversed, but a genuine mistaken identity or a flawed evidence chain is corrected as soon as it is confirmed.

Can I appeal twice?

A second appeal is only useful if you bring something new: fresh evidence, missing context, or a documented error in the original decision.
