Blacklist Amnesty
Information
Blacklist amnesties are a method for players to have their blacklist lifted. You are not eligible to make an amnesty request if you were blacklisted for;
a) causing serious damage to CG, e.g. serious exploits,
b) compromising personal information,
c) chargebacking.
Do not use this format to appeal temporary or permanent bans. If you are blacklisted it will say so when you try to join the server.
To make an amnesty request you must admit what you did and explain how you will make sure that you don't repeat your mistakes. Blacklist amnesties are judged solely by the Network Leadership team. Opinions of other staff or players are not welcome. You are not guaranteed to be unblacklisted, and if you are unblacklisted, there may be conditions placed on you which will result in a re-blacklist or ban if violated.
Blacklist amnesties take time to investigate and are not top priority for Network Leadership, and as such it may take time for appeals to be looked at and a conclusion reached.
Blacklists are lifted at the discretion of Network Leadership, these are not the same as Ban Appeals and as such have a higher threshold to being allowed back into the community, users who have a blacklist are not entitled to return, blacklists are given as a last resort and as such hold significant weight on our decision to allow you back to the service. (Just because you say sorry does not mean you are entitled to return)
1. Amnesty rules
- Provide as much information as possible.
- Don't bump your blacklist amnesty unless you are responding to a question / disputing a Network Leadership comment.
- Don't advertise your amnesty (contacting staff about it).
- Don't lie in your amnesty.
- Wait at least one month before re-appealing if you are denied.
- Only Network Leadership are permitted to comment on blacklist amnesties.
- Make sure you're actually blacklisted, not just failing to connect. The server will tell you if you are.
Breaking these rules will result in either a denial or delays in processing your amnesty.
2. Making an appeal
- Press the "Submit Blacklist Amnesty" button and answer the questions.
- Updates to your amnesty text should be done via editing your original post, not a new post.
- If Network Leadership 'tags' the staff member who blacklisted you, don't post asking 'why' or a similar question. It is so they receive a notification about the appeal.
- Don't tag staff yourself.
