I've yet to receive any advice on how to go about appealing my ban. Is it allowed to transfer any of my merit or status from my banned account to a new account? I put years of work and it makes no sense for my to lose all my progress for a simple mistake. There must be a way to contact an admin for a transfer or something to work. I can't accept that all this is lost over nothing. If this account can be reinstated with the stats of my previous account than I can drop the whole appeal process and move on
What is your account's name? A simple mistake?

Tell me: did you get warned for any previous rule-breaking activity, or was this immediate?
Did you plagiarize content, or did you instead break some other rule?

Did you buy the account?
And no, you won't transfer anything to a new account. This has to be a troll, right?

No I am not trolling. I am seriously considering quitting this forum if the appeal does not go through. It makes no sense at all. Yeah there were warnings, no I did not buy my account. Thatss why it hurts so much it's because I spent too much time on it. I am not trolling, maybe you are? I don't see the need to post my account ID, you will just attack me on there instead, and I dont see a reason to state the ban reason as it's private information. Please stay helpful with the replies.

Recently my friend received a permanent ban on his main account <…>
"Main account", meaning that he runs other accounts too. A friendly gesture would be to inform your friend that the ban applies not just to his main account, but rather to all his accounts (past, present and future), except for the account he may use to create a ban appeal here, on Meta.

<…> Also, doesn't it make sense for people to have a chance to correct their errors?
Some people do get a chance, based on their net contribution to the forum (or so): [ BAN APPEAL]UPDATE: Total table + Ban status (Need feedback from Global mods), - not up-to-date.

No transfer of anything. Simply use this thread to lay out your arguments to oppose the ban, or why it's wrong. Perhaps start by providing the id of the banned account.

I see, I will go through with the ban appeal and am confident the account will be re-instated. It should be a simple matter.

Which breach of rules results in a permanent ban? Also, doesn't it make sense for people to have a chance to correct their errors?
Considering that unless you get warned multiple times and end up with a ban, and where the only absolute permanent ban (without warning) is plagiarism... either you are blatantly copying and pasting content (which most people know not to do) or you are repeatedly breaking rules, meaning you've already had multiple chances to correct your error.

And considering the fact that all forum rules are public, you don't really have an excuse. You seem to understand English fairly well. Is that an issue for your "friend" as well?

What makes you think that I'm pretending to be someone else? I'm just asking for a friend that told me that he doesn't know why he got banned. Whether I'm asking for myself or someone else doesn't matter... I didn't break any rules and have been unfairly suspended. How would I dispute a ban and appeal it?? And yes I do understand English very well... thanks for "noticing" Smiley

Isnt this too harsh of a punishment?

No. It really isn't that hard to adhere to the rules. I've been here since 2013 and have never been temp. banned for anything.
