Dear SS-14,

I am writing to appeal my recent account suspension due to my regrettable and unacceptable behavior involving racism. I fully acknowledge and accept responsibility for my actions, and I am deeply remorseful for the harm and offense I have caused.

First and foremost, I want to express my sincere apologies to the community, to those directly affected by my words, and to the platform as a whole. My actions were inexcusable and do not reflect my true beliefs or values. I understand that racism has no place in any community, online or offline, and I am committed to educating myself and working towards becoming a better and more respectful individual.

I want to assure you that this incident has been a profound wake-up call for me. I have taken the time to reflect on my behavior, to understand the impact of my words, and to educate myself about the harmful effects of racism. I now recognize the importance of fostering an inclusive and respectful environment in online communities, and I am determined to contribute positively to achieving that goal.

To demonstrate my commitment to change, I am willing to undergo any necessary training or counseling to address the underlying issues that led to my racist behavior. Additionally, I am more than willing to comply with any conditions or restrictions imposed on my account as part of the reinstatement process.

I understand that trust is something that must be earned, and I do not expect my account to be reinstated immediately. However, I humbly request the opportunity to demonstrate through my actions and behavior that I am genuinely remorseful and committed to positive change.

Once again, I offer my sincerest apologies for my actions, and I thank you for considering my appeal. I am hopeful for the chance to prove that I can be a responsible and respectful member of the community once more.

Thank you for your time and understanding.

Sincerely, asfsGsdrfgSDG

Dear asfsGsdrfgSDG,

Thank you for submitting your appeal regarding the ban from SS-14 for the use of racially offensive language. After careful consideration, we must inform you that your appeal has been denied. The primary reason for this decision is that your appeal appears to have been generated by an artificial intelligence (AI) system. We require genuine, personally written appeals to fully understand and evaluate the remorse and commitment to change of the individuals involved.

Authenticity in the appeals process is crucial to ensure sincerity and a true understanding of the impact of one’s actions. An AI-generated letter lacks the personal accountability and reflection necessary for the consideration of ban reversal in serious matters such as this.

Furthermore, as a point of clarity, this response to your appeal is also AI-generated, demonstrating the use of technology in managing communications. However, decisions like these are overseen by human moderators to maintain the integrity and values of our community.

We encourage genuine and personal engagement with the appeals process. Should you wish to submit a new appeal written personally by you, it will be reconsidered accordingly.

You may appeal again in 1 month.

Sincerely,

The SS-14 Moderation Team

To enable speedy review of all appeals, appeals that meet certain requirements may bypass the standard, often lengthy, review process. Our banning policy requires appeals which are denied using the speedy review process have this notice placed on them. Any of the following criteria typically make an appeal eligible for the speedy review process:

  • the ban is temporary and the player indicated on the appeal that they are ok with it being processed without a vote,
  • the ban length is less than or equal to 14 days,
  • the appeal is older than 7 days, or
  • the result of the appeal is obvious.

You may make a staff complaint if you believe this appeal was handled improperly, but should be aware that this will typically only result in a review of the processing of the appeal itself, with the appeal being re-opened if an issue is found. An appeal is considered to have been processed improperly if the criteria to use the speedy review process was not met, or if the facts which the processing admin relied on to process the appeal were incorrect. You must concisely describe why you believe the appeal was handled improperly. If no issue is found with the processing of the appeal, the appeal itself will not be re-reviewed. If, in bad faith, you claim that an appeal was handled improperly, the reviewing head admin may decide to extend the time you must wait before you appeal and/or extend your ban duration.

Due to your attempt to evade your ban, you are banned indefinitely. You may appeal your ban, but only at least 6 months after your last ban evasion attempt, and only with a voucher of good behavior from another SS13/SS14 server.

A voucher of good behavior should be obtained from a well-known or decently active SS13/SS14 server. If it is a mainstream server, we recommend using that server’s admin-help to ask for a voucher from one of the administrators explaining that you are trying to appeal a ban on SS14’s Wizard’s Den and want to show you have been a problem-free player during your playtime on the server. A voucher should be indicative of at least a few months of play. If the voucher is not from a mainstream server, let us know and we will figure out a way to verify it.

Additionally, based on information provided via an appeal posted from another SS14 server, I am also letting you know that your ban is indefinite insofar as you being underage. By your own admission, you’re 13. Minimum age to play on any Wizard’s Den server is 16.

This portion of your ban is non-negotiable and non-appealable until you are at least 16 years of age.
