Appeals can only be made by the banned person. Don't create unban topics for friends or so!
How to create an unban topic (ban appeal/protest)
If you're banned on a Source engine server, check your ban at our bans page (MTA and Minecraft bans aren't on that list). You can read the reason and can see who banned you. If you're banned on a non-Source-engine server. Just create a topic and tell us why you've been possibly banned.
Don't forget to put the following things in your ban appeal:
Your in-game name
Date of your ban
What game/server are you banned from
Who banned you (only if you know who)
Reason why you got banned (only if you know why)
Reason why we should unban you
Post your SteamID if you're banned on a Source-based game (Minecraft and MTA are excluded)!
If banned on MTA, post your MTA serial, (start MTA -> press F8 -> type serial)
If you are reporting someone to be get a ban. Then provide these information:
Your ingame name
The player's name who you are reporting
Which server are you requesting this?
The reason why this player should get banned
For Minecraft ban requests, use the dedicated topic.
