Go To

This is the thread we use to talk things over with people who have received a suspension notice. A lot of the time the notice goes out just so we can explain how seriously we take certain things, not because we want the person to feel bad and go away.

If you're suspended, give What to Do If You Are Suspended a read, then post here to begin your appeal. We try to respond to appeals in order via batch posts every few days. If a moderator has responded to your appeal, you will receive a notification in your private messages, even if you're suspended from PMs.

The Forum Rules apply here.

Don'ts

  • Don't be rude. Rule 1 applies here, too.
  • Don't try to negotiate your suspension outside of this thread, such as by sending Private Messages to moderators or posting elsewhere. Such activity may be thumped or otherwise removed, and may warrant an additional suspension block if it keeps happening. All communications have to take place within this thread.
  • Don't respond to other suspended users. This is a place for you to discuss your suspension, not others'.
  • Don't post multiple times about your appeal if it hasn't been a few days since your last reply from us, since it makes it more difficult to compose responses. If you've posted, we're likely looking at it, and kindly request you to be more patient.
  • Don't make another account to try and get around your suspension. This is called ban evasion and will get you bounced. (Again, read What to Do If You Are Suspended if you don't know what these words mean.)

Actually, a quick check of your file shows that you already blew your second chance. We don't usually give thirds.

Your previous suspension was for page blanking. This time you've been censoring wiki content and removing entries on Dethroning Moment of Suck, which is explicitly a place set aside for people to talk about things they don't like.

So, what is it exactly with you and wiki policies? If we release your suspension this time, what other rules will you break? We don't feel like taking that chance.

I would like to edit again because my other edit was too short, and I have realized that, and If I could, I would add it again, but not as undescriptive this time. I just want a 2nd chance.

Zens, your suspension was because your edits to Fridge.Minecraft inserted line breaks into paragraphs, like you copied and pasted it from Notepad. The quality of your edits is irrelevant if you're going to mess up the page formatting whenever you make them.

Hi, I would like to see about editing/contributing again. I seem to have fixed the problem on my computer that was causing pages' formats to get messed up whenever I edited them.

The flag says that a suspension isn't a punishment. How long does a suspension last?

It lasts until it's been successfully appealed. That is to say, until we're fairly sure that you won't do the same thing again.

Extrovert Federalist: Lifted. See that it doesn't happen again.

JSND: You still seem to have a bit of trouble. I will lift the suspension, but you will have to promise to go through the English thread to avoid mistakes, okay?

mythbuster: I had to correct a bunch of your edits as natter. If something is wrong, Repair Dont Respond. Delete it with an edit reason, don't contest it on the page. It looks schizophrenic. Work names should be in italics and namespaced. Like:

Do you understand these? If you do, your suspension will be lifted.

Understood. I'll be more cautious with my edits and avoid getting overzealous so I won't post for the sake of posting.

Sure

From what I recalled the problem that I has is poor understanding of subversions, in-universe, trope names, and poor grammar(the wiki edits that got me suspended was likely the one from several months ago but I digress)

So, I guess I got suspended for deleting what I thought would be considered "Natter" in the Earth Bound Nightmare Fuel page.

Well now that is interesting. We have no record of you editing that page; in fact your only edit was a blanking of King of the Hill.

Is there something else you wish to tell us?

That was in response to Forenperser.

Serocco, you're apparently in for page blanking. On April 4th, you blanked DarthWiki.Revenant and Characters.Revenant. Why is that?

Oh, that was my Unpublished Work. I chose to remove those pages because I figured to take the ideas I had there and move them over to fanfics that I'm actually working on.

Okay, but page blanking makes it look like vandalism. If the unpublished work is aborted, you can submit it to the Cut List, clarifying it's an unpublished work.
