Ban Appeal [English]

If you have been banned you have to post in this section, unless an admin who banned you gave your ban length in the ban reason.

If you're posting here we'll just take a wild guess and assume you where banned, so there's no need to say "OMG BANNEDED" in the topic title. Write your name and who banned you (if known) for your request to be dealt with a lot quicker. Write the name of the admin who banned you in the topic title in the format "[Admin] Nick [Reason]", eg [S3rs] Player1 [Cash]
Please use this format to make your unban appeal:

Code: [Select]

[left][b]Nick used whilst ingame:[/b] [Your Nickname]
[b]Time and Date that you were banned:[/b] [Time & Date]
[b]Suspected Reason :[/b] [Reason]
[b]Admin that banned you (if known):[/b] [Name of the admin that banned you]
[b]Extra notes:[/b][/left]

If you don't post in this format, chances are that your post will be removed or ignored. This way we can get all the information quickly and easily needed to review your ban.

Sometimes when you try to connect to a server, you can get this bug.

For Littlewhiteys, it would be like this:

Connecting to 83.133.126.170:7777...
The server didn't respond. Retrying...
Connecting to 83.133.126.170:7777...
Your banned from the server.

If you get this bug, simply try reconnecting to the server.

If you have been banned from the server (intentionally) you will not be able to login to your Littlewhitey's Server account. LWBot will kick you, with the reason, "Attempted login on banned account.". If you experience this, you should make a ban appeal in this board before reconnecting to the server. Even if you use another name, the admins will know you are there and ban you again. This is called ban evading, and doing so will result in a permanent ban from the server.

If you are in this situation, it does not necessarily mean you have been banned. If the server is experiencing down-time (aka the server has crashed) it may appear like this. A more reliable way to check if your banned/server is down is to click on the server in your SA:MP Browser, and watch the ping graph in the bottom right corner. If a green line on the graph doesn't appear, your banned or the server is down. The server can sometimes crash while restarting or updating gamemodes. This will sometimes say:

Server Closed The Connection.

or you will appear to timeout, then not be able to reconnect and keep getting this:

Connecting to 83.133.126.170:7777...
The server didn't respond. Retrying...

The best thing to do is ask a friend if they can see the server, if they can then chances are your banned. (Unless you and your friend share an ip/caught in a range ban).

I hope this post is useful and solves some players confusion on if they have been banned or not.

PS: If anyone has some screenshots related to this, please pm me.

If you no longer wish to play on the server

If you no longer wish to play on the server please break our rules, then when you have done that pop onto the forum and spam broken english, dont fill in a ban appeal properly and flame admin,

when thats finished ban evade a bit, ban evade alot...... then have the cheek to come back to forums and complain that you were not unbanned......... spam a bit more

ban evade for a few more days and still dont fill out a proper ban appeal,

ignore our countless posts askin/telling you to fill out a ban appeal properly, ignore our countless requests for you to stop making new topics( also not filled out properly) and to stop spamming.

we will be only happy to help with your needs as the server really needs players like you.

if this post describes you please go jump off the nearest bridge/high building

maybe we'll unban you after that.
