Do you feel you have been punished incorrectly or have learned from your punishments and want to return to the server? Do you believe a report or situation was concluded incorrectly? This is the section that is required to be used in order for punishments and situations be reviewed. The moderator or administrator whom issued the punishment will reply (if possible) with their reasoning for the punishments and the details they remember around the situation. Following this, a member of Senior Staff will review the appeal, where they will determine if the situation was handled properly, if a punishment should be reduced, or a punishment should remain on record.
You can find a list of staff on the Staff Team Points of Contact.
You can find your punishments on your game panel HERE using your in-game login information. If you are banned, you can connect to the server and check the information on your ban screen.
Keep in mind this section is NOT to be used for debating how the rules should be and is NOT to be used for bashing admins, the admin team, or Eclipse Server. Appeals of this nature will be locked without consideration. Only post here if you can discuss appropriately why you didn't break the rule that you were punished for breaking or that you understand why you were punished, and have learned from the situation and wish to have a punishment lifted.
A situation can be appealed no later than 1 month from the date it was concluded. After 1 month, you may only appeal to return if banned, and the punishment cannot be voided.
Appeals that involve cheating, ban evading, cyber attacks, or any other severe rule breaks may be denied without consideration unless the post is compelling. Do not expect to be able to appeal for violations of this type. In addition to this, spoken to warnings are non appealable. These administrative notes are not punishments, they are done for logging purposes and are more notes for any reviewing staff member than they are for the player.
You are NOT to PM or directly contact any staff member regarding your punishment appeal unless they specifically say you should. Doing so may result in a closing of your request or further punishment.
You are NOT to post in this section of the forums unless you are making an appeal, or commenting on your own appeal. Stating you would like your friend unbanned, or that he is a good person, or that they didn't deserve punishment in your opinion, will earn a warning for spamming. You should not comment on other people's appeals.

After you post:
Do not PM any staff member in regards to your appeal.
Wait patiently, some appeals may be answered quickly and others require investigation and review that can take time. Do not bump your appeal due to impatience.
The mod or admin will explain their reasoning, and then it will be reviewed by a member of Senior Staff.
Once a decision has been made here, the decision is final and you cannot appeal again for the same issue.
Once a conclusion has been made, the thread will be locked and archived. If no time frame is given then you may appeal no sooner than 10 days from the conclusion of your previous appeal, otherwise, no sooner than the time given in your last appeal.
