Bans Issued

Bans Issued

Bans Issued Board is the forum board used for certain punishment appeals in CIT.

Appeal Use

The Bans Issued Board is used for appealing these punishments:

• normal bans
• limit bans
• fullmute bans
• mutes lasting 3 days or longer

If your punishment matches one of those types, this is the board you use instead of the normal punishment appeal board.

Your appeal should include:

How appeals are reviewed

BAMs handle bans issued by former or inactive staff. PAMs review other punishment appeals under the appeal rules. PAM tasks:

• review punishment appeals
• check logs and proof
• contact the punishing staff member if needed
• decide whether the punishment stays
• decide whether the punishment is removed
• decide whether a custom duration or severity should be adjusted

Appeal timing

Appeals are not answered immediately.

They need time to be reviewed properly.

Appeal Notes

• Bans Issued Board is only for certain punishment types.
• Long mutes also go there if they last 3 days or longer.
• Short mutes do not go there.
• Use the correct title and full appeal format when posting.
