Welcome to VillageCraft's Ban/Punishment Appeals. Winning an appeal is the
only way to lift a ban on VillageCraft. Do not privately ask Staff to unban you; they can't.
Here you can try to remove or lessen a punishment, or just ask a question so you better understand your situation. When you appeal, the way you explain your case is up to you, just remember we prefer honesty.

Terms:Pardoning means you didn't do what you're accused of. Pardons completely clear your name of the offense.
Forgiving is not a full pardon, and it means we are willing to reduce or remove the punishment for the offense you did commit.Board Rule:Unless you are appealing a punishment, please don't post in someone else's appeal unless you have evidence or information that would make your intervention worthwhile. We don't need comments or opinions, unless we ask for them. Evidence and information is okay. Intervening with irrelevant posts that are not important to the appeal may result in an immediate forum temporary ban. Please, though, post useful information, observations, and interpretations if they add to the thread.--
Rights:Basic rights of the person appealing:
1. You have the right to appeal a punishment levied against you, so long as you respect re-appeal limits.
2. You have the right to request information on your punishment, such as the Staff's "Staff Action Registry" entries relating to you, or any other basic information that allows you to understand your situation properly to write your appeal.
3. If you appeal in a reasonable time after your punishment, you have the right to demand evidence pertaining to your case.
Limits on re-appealing:
If your appeal is denied, staff may put a limit of up to 3 months before you can appeal again. If staff do not set a limit, you may appeal again after 2 weeks have passed. You can appeal sooner, and ignore the limit, if a staff member says it is okay to do so in your specific case. If you have never appealed, there is no limit on when you may make your first appeal.
A note on the VillageCraft Staff Action Registry, and appealing in general:
The VillageCraft Staff maintain a registry of all punishments and actions we have undertaken, including warnings, pardons, bans, and so on. It contains important information relating to each action, and we can and will use it when considering your appeal or future punishments. This means if you truly feel a punishment or warning was levied against you unfairly, you should appeal it to have it pardoned and removed from the registry, even if you did not receive a ban from it.
