Why were you banned/blacklisted?: for telling someone to stop harassing me

Why should this appeal be considered?: for telling a kid to stop harassing me they said i was starting problems and doing disrespectful conduct when all i was doing was asking a broke kid to stop harassing me which he responded with more harassing and im the one who recieved a forum ban its unjust and not right all i wanted was to not be harassed and it responded with me being banned

You went quite a bit further than what you have described. If you didn't want to be 'harassed' as you say, then simply don't engage with the other person - report it and wait for it to be addressed. It's that simple.

Rest assured, we will be speaking to the other user who was involved, however what was happening was not a set of mitigating circumstances that gave you free reign to break the spirit or the letter of the Forum Rules yourself. As such we deem the ban to be valid, and you are welcome to participate on the forums again from 11/09/2026 onwards.
